Dominoes

Dominoes are a family of tile-based games played with pieces. Each domino is a rectangular tile, usually with a line dividing its face into two square ends. Each end is marked with a number of spots or is blank.

The backs of the tiles in a set are indistinguishable, either blank or having some common design.
The gaming pieces make up a domino set, sometimes called a deck or pack.
The traditional European domino set consists of 28 tiles, also known as pieces, bones, rocks, stones, men, cards or just dominoes, featuring all combinations of spot counts between zero and six.
