Dominoes

Classic domino play on Android

Dominoes from Loop Games brings the familiar tile game to a simple digital board. It suits players who want short, easy-to-learn matches, as well as anyone looking to practise the basic rules before trying a more demanding scoring system. The central task stays the same: place a tile beside an open end with a matching number of pips.

Three ways to play

• Draw Dominoes: Match one of your tiles to either end of the layout. When you have no playable move, you can draw another tile from the boneyard.
• Block Dominoes: Use the same matching principle, but pass your turn when none of your tiles can be played. There is no extra draw to open a new option.
• All Fives: Add the pips shown at both open ends after each move. When that total is a multiple of five, it counts toward your score.

Simple rules, different levels of depth

The first two modes make a good starting point because their objective is easy to follow: manage your hand and place matching tiles before your opponent. All Fives adds a separate calculation to every turn, so it rewards players who can plan around the exposed ends instead of choosing a move only because it is immediately available. That gives the app room for both relaxed games and more deliberate play.
