Dominoes is the classic dominoes game where you try to get the ends to add up to multiple of 5's. You can play against the computer are with others over the Internet. They have a page set up where you get ICQ numbers of other Dominoes players. The main game window has a window at the top where the dominoes are played (either by right clicking on drag and drop), a window showing your dominoes at the bottom and a window to the right showing the backs of your opponents dominoes and your scores using the b Using Options you can set Dominoes up to suit your taste and skill level. Games options is where you can set it up to play with 2, 3, 4 as individuals, or 4 as teams players. You can also set the number or points per game, the number of tiles to start with, and the number of doubles to allow re shuffle. Other game options are First hand draw for down or player with the highest double and Successive hands take turns, player who dominoes last, or player with the highest double.

This is a nice domino game. It isn't easy to find a domino game that plays by the traditional rules with the multiple of 5 scoring method but this one does. The shareware version does not come with any specific evaluation period. It also come bundled with the Win42 domino game which it installs at the same time into the same directory. You can register this program via snail mail. You have to register each game separately or you can choose to get the registration code for both Dominoes and Win42.
