A tour of the game board
The first time a game opens, there is a lot on screen at once. It is simpler than it looks: every player gets a column with their train running down it, there is one shared train at the end, and your dominoes sit along the bottom. Here is a tour of the lot.
1. Open a game from your games list to go to the board.
2. Click “Continue game” on the game you want to play.
3. This is the board. Every player gets a column, and the trains run down them.
4. Each column header shows a player, how many tiles they are holding, and their score.
5. Your own column is the highlighted one, marked “PLAYING” when it is your turn.
6. The last column is the Mexican Train. It belongs to nobody, so anyone can play on it.
7. A little orange train means that train is open — you may play on it too.
8. Your dominoes sit along the bottom. Drag them to reorder them however you like.
9. Beside them: the points you are holding, and how many tiles are left in the pot.
10. If you cannot go, “Draw a tile” takes one from the pot.
11. The green “Menu” button opens the scores, the settings, and the way back out.
12. That is the whole board — your column, everyone else’s, and the Mexican Train.
