🎯 The Clearance Mandate: Play Tiles Before the Opponent 🏆

🔗 The Connection Protocol: Matching Ends 💡

Movement is governed by the traditional Connection Protocol:

1. Matching Requirement: You can only Play Your Tiles on the Table by placing them so that the Number of Dots on one end of your domino Exactly Matches the number of dots on an exposed end of the existing chain of dominoes.
2. No New Lines: In Block Dominoes, the main chain may only branch at the first played tile (the "spinner"), but the focus is on extending the linear sequence.
3. The Double: When a double (e.g., 6-6) is played, it is usually placed perpendicularly across the line, and the next player may play on any of the four exposed ends of the spinner, or two ends of a non-spinner double.

🚫 The Block Strategy: Passing the Turn 🛑
