BoneKeeper brings a complete All Fives table and a powerful domino scorekeeper to your phone. Play live virtual dominoes with friends on separate devices. Create or join a private table, choose from the same shared wash, watch bones disappear from the boneyard in real time, and keep every hand, move, turn, score, and house synchronized. Want a quick game? Take on computer players in a full virtual match. Wash and choose your bones, drag to matching ends, play the spinner, draw from the boneyard, knock when you cannot play, and watch the table count every open end. Earn Bones as you score and win. Spend them on cosmetic domino sets, gaming tables, and slam effects that personalize your table. Your career points keep growing while your spendable Bones balance decreases with purchases. Bones are earned through play; they cannot be purchased, transferred, risked, or redeemed for money or prizes.
