Slosh Dominoes Game Rules
- Slosh is a 4 player dominoes game played with double-six domino set. Each player gets 6 tiles at the beginning of each round.
- Remaining 4 tiles are set aside and not used in the game.
- Each round starts with a lead double which is placed at the center. The player who gets the lead double plays it first and then rest of the players take turn clockwise.
- If no player gets lead double for the round then the hand is re-dealt.
- Lead double for first round is [4-4]. Subsequent rounds use [5-5], [6-6], [1-1], [2-2], [3-3] in the same sequence.
- Each player has a personal train which starts from one corner of the lead double (4 trains in all for all players). Player can play a matching tile on his/her personal train.
- If player is unable to play a tile to his/her personal train, then next player gets a chance to play an additional tile to current player's train before playing to his/her personal train. This move is called "sloshing" which is what this game is named after.
- If player can play a tile to his/her personal train, then next player can only play to their own train.
- If player plays a tile to previous player's train but can not play a tile to his/her own train, then next player is allowed to play a tile to current player's train (in other words can "slosh").
- First player playing all his/her tiles wins the round. If the game is blocked then player with the lowest pips count in his/her hand wins.
- If two playes end up with the same score at the end of a round, no player gets any point.
- Winner of the round scores the difference of his/her hand and that of rest of the players
- After the end of last round (for lead [3-3]), the player with the highest score wins.
