Hi - Musical Dominos are played just as numerical Dominos are. It's just that you match the musical notes rather than numbers of dots.
Here's a basic breakdown of how to play dominoes:
-
Shuffle the dominoes face down and have each player draw a set number of tiles based on the number of players.
-
The player with the highest double (same number on both ends) or the player with the highest number tile starts.
-
Each player takes turns laying a tile down, matching the number on one end of their tile to the open end of the previous tile played.
-
Doubles are played perpendicular to the existing line of play and can be played off of either end.
-
If a player cannot play a tile, they must draw from the boneyard (the remaining pile of dominoes) until they can play one.
-
Some domino variations have scoring rules, such as counting points for matching a total of five or ten. The first player to play all of their tiles or reach the scoring objective is the winner.
