Matador Dominoes
Matador is the variant that breaks the first rule everyone learns. You do not match like numbers. You place a tile so that the two touching halves add up to seven.
So a six accepts a one, a five accepts a two, and a four accepts a three. If an open end shows a five, the tile you play against it must present a two.
Four tiles are matadors: 6-1, 5-2 and 4-3, whose halves already total seven, plus the double blank. A matador is wild. It can be played against any open end, is laid crosswise, and the number it leaves showing becomes the new end.
Blanks are the trap. A blank end totals seven with nothing, so it can only ever be covered by a matador. Spending your matadors early is the most common way to lose a hand you were winning.
Use a double-six set. Two players take seven tiles each; more players take five. The rest form a boneyard, and a player who cannot play draws until they can.
The hand ends when a player places their last tile. That player wins and scores the total pips left in the opponents' hands.
If the layout blocks completely, which happens more often here than in Block because blanks are so hard to cover, the lowest pip count wins the hand.
Play to 100 points. Matador rewards counting which matadors are still unaccounted for, in much the same way that All Threes rewards counting what keeps the ends divisible.
