Grandad▲io

Choose how you'd like to play:

A trick-taking domino game you play against Grandad▲io. Each of you gets 7 dominoes, with the rest left in a draw pile. Bid on how many of the 7 tricks you think you can win, then whoever bids highest names a number (0–6) as trump. If you can't follow the suit that was led, you must draw from the pile until you get one that matches. Bid all 7 and you're "shooting the moon" — win them all for 21 points! First to 21 wins the match.

The traditional three-player version, played with the full set of 28 dominoes against Grandad▲io and Mamita. Each of you gets 9 dominoes, with just 1 tile left over as the widow. Bid on how many of the 9 tricks you can win, then whoever bids highest may swap in the widow tile before naming trump. Bid all 9 and you're "shooting the moon" for 21 points! First to 21 wins.
