Double Nine Cross Dominoes

The children's version of the classic game of Dominoes. Provided with picture instead of (or as well as) numbers to allow pre-readers to play. This is a catch-all entry for the game system where the traditional numbers or pips on dominoes are replaced with pictures (giving roughly the same effect as the traditional game, though without numbers, scoring removed as a game element). The Chinese game used the tiles to represent civil and military ranks based on all the possible outcomes when throwing two six-sided dice. Loser 1 subtracts the winner's spot total of 3 from 11 = 8 and rounds this to the nearest multiple of 5 which is 10.

Place all the remaining tiles off the playing area as they won’t be used during the rest of the game. The Play: Some domino games end once a certain number of hands have been played or a player or team makes the necessary points to win. For many other domino games, the object of the game is to be the first player (or team) to dispose of all the dominoes in your hand. These domino games end when a player has played all the dominoes in his hand before the other players and announces, "Domino." Many people find Professional or Jumbo dominoes to have the right combination of size, heft, and readability for everyday play, but smaller dominoes may be more appropriate for young children or for those who have a more limited playing area.

While there are three or more sleeping tiles left in the middle of the table, when a player cannot play, that player takes a sleeping tile instead. Once there are only two sleeping tiles remaining, a player who cannot play merely passes for that turn. Before a game or hand begins, the dominoes must be shuffled. You can turn them all face-down on the table, then move them around in a random motion, being careful not to flip over any of the pieces. The collection of shuffled tiles is called the boneyard.

Upon reaching Europe, dominoes was significantly altered from the more sophisticated Chinese game. The duplicate tiles were removed and replaced with tiles containing blanks.

Bidding games are card-like games, played by two to four players. In these games, players bid their hands, the highest bidder names the suit, and the score is determined by the bid. If your domino is accidentally exposed to another player, it must then be exposed to all of the players. Each player must find a tile with a corresponding number of pips (the dots on the domino). This can be placed on any free side of a tile with matching numbers. An extension to the Draw game, this variation gives players more options and also takes up less table space! Players must lay down a domino if he is able to do so and doubles are not spinners. Play continues until someone dominoes, or until no one has a legitimate play. The Scoring:
