How to play

  1. A double-six set has 28 tiles. You and the computer each take seven, and the rest form the boneyard.
  2. The player with the highest double starts the line. Then take turns playing a tile with a number that matches either end of the line.
  3. If you cannot play, draw from the boneyard until you can, or pass when it is empty. If a tile fits both ends you choose which.
  4. Empty your hand first to win. If both players are blocked, the lower total of dots wins.

Controls: mouse or touch. Made by CalcoTools.

Tips and strategy

  • Play heavy tiles early: they cost the most if you get blocked.
  • Try to keep a mix of numbers so you always have something that fits.
  • Remember the ends the computer cannot match, since it will have to draw.
  • Doubles can only be played on their own number, so use them when they fit.

Do I choose the end for a tile that fits both?
Yes. After you tap it, pick the left or right end.
