How to play Dominos on Mac

Game summary

Dominos is an adaptation of the tile-laying game Dominoes. At the beginning you choose seven Domino tiles, but you can NOT see what you pick. Then when the game starts, the one with the 6:6 domino tile has to place that tile. The opponent is on the turn then afterwards and places his domino tile and you have to place a tile with the same number of the last part of the tile or, if he places a tile where the ending is blank, you have to place a tile with one or two blank sites. Shouldn't one of the players have a fitting tile, he can try his luck to pick one, just like at the beginning of the match.
First released: Dec 1982

Play Dominos on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play Dominos on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.

Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.

Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).

Dominos installation steps for Mac

Step 1
Go to Parallels.com and download the latest version of the software.
Step 2
Follow the installation process and make sure you allow Parallels in your Mac’s security preferences (it will prompt you to do so).
Step 3
When prompted, download and install Windows 10. The download is around 5.7GB. Make sure you give it all the permissions that it asks for.
Step 4
Once Windows is done installing, you are ready to go. All that’s left to do is install Dominos like you would on any PC.
