How It Works & FAQ

FireSlip is home for island-style partner dominoes. Real domino nights are streamed live (and saved as replays), and you can play online or hang out in The Yard, a 3D domino yard where people show their faces on TV-head avatars. Creators keep ownership of their streams and get support directly from their community.

The easiest way is the FireSlip Broadcaster app on iPhone: sign in and tap Go Live. FireSlip also works with OBS and most RTMP-compatible streaming apps using the stream key from your dashboard.

The event host (and FireSlip admins) get +1 / −1 score buttons right in the Broadcaster app. The scoreboard is drawn into the video so viewers and replays always show the current score, and a 6–0 is announced as a six love.

Yes. Live chat from viewers shows on top of the camera view in the Broadcaster app, so you can shout people out without picking up another device.

Viewers can send SlipToken tips on live events and streams, and the Lit Meter shows how hot the stream is. Tipping is for live streams and events; the online tables and The Yard are just for playing and hanging out.

Yes. Every live stream is recorded and posted as a replay, so anyone who missed the game can watch it later.

Go to Play. You can play right away against the computer, or start an online table and send the invite link to friends (WhatsApp works great). Empty seats get filled by computer players, so you never wait for a full four.

Yes, if you turn it on. At an online table, tap the camera button to put your webcam or phone camera on your TV head and talk with the table. Only players sitting at the table can turn on camera and mic; anyone watching can see and hear, but not broadcast. It only uses your camera while you’re playing.

The Yard is a 3D island domino yard you can walk around in: tables with games going, a sound system with Yard Radio, a rum shop and a big screen that plays live domino nights when they’re on. Other people walking around are real visitors.

It works like real life: you only hear people who are near you, and they get quieter as you walk away. Tap Talk & show my face to turn on your mic and put your camera on your TV head. You need to be logged in to talk or show your face; guests can walk around and listen.

Yard Radio plays live internet radio stations: reggae, dancehall and soca from the Caribbean and beyond. Tap play on the radio card, skip stations, or switch channels. When a live domino night is on the big screen, the stream takes over the speakers.

Win online games while logged in. The rum-shop chalkboard shows this week’s top winners, and every 6–0 goes up on the Six Love wall. Guest games don’t count.

Yes, straight from your phone or computer, no Broadcaster app needed. If you started the table (you sent the invite link), flip 🔴 Stream this game on my page in the lobby, or tap it during the game. Everyone at the table gets an “I’m in” prompt, and once they all OK it the game goes live on your FireSlip page with the board, score, faces and voices, and it’s saved as a replay.

Not unless the host streams the table, and only after everyone at the table OKs it (you’ll see a LIVE badge the whole time). The Yard is never recorded. Streams you broadcast yourself, with the Broadcaster app or a streamed table, are saved as replays.

The Store has table skins, fits for your avatar, a gold chain, a gold name tag, slam effects and win celebrations, paid with SlipTokens. They’re cosmetic only (nothing changes how a game plays), and everyone at your table or in The Yard sees what you’re wearing. Store purchases don’t count as creator earnings.

Some items can’t be bought at any price: you earn them at real tables. Win a Jamaican match 6–0 for the Six Love Crown, win 10 in a row for Hot Hand, win 100 for the Yard Boss Chain, and anyone who plays before public launch gets the Founding Player tag. A match counts when all four seats are different signed-in players and it’s played to the end, and only three wins a day against the same group count. When you unlock one, a FireSlip pack drops in for you to rip open. Check your progress on the Earn tab in the Store. There are no paid random packs.

Yes, if the host switched on “Show on Live tables” in the lobby. Public games show up on the homepage and under Live tables in The Yard. Tap Watch to see the table and everyone’s face cams, or “Ask to play”: the host gets a pop-up to let you in, and you take over an AI seat (or wait your turn for the next open seat). Tables are private unless the host turns this on.

Each area’s sound system has a jukebox. Walk up to it to pick the music, and everyone in that area hears the same station. Your own volume and mute are just for you, on the music card at the top left.

The Trini partner game. Everyone gets 6 cards and the dealer turns up trump (the kick): a Jack scores 3 for the dealer’s team, a Six 2, an Ace 1. The player after the dealer stands or begs; if they beg, the dealer gives their team one point or runs the pack (3 more cards each and a new trump). Follow suit or trump (you can trump any time). After the last trick: High, Low, Jack and Game are a point each, and catching the other team’s Jack is “hang Jack” for 3. First to 14 wins. Start a table from Play or walk up to a table on the Verandah in The Yard.

Partners sit across from each other. Everyone gets 13 cards and bids how many books (tricks) they’ll take, or nil. Spades are always trump and can’t be led until someone cuts with one. Make your team’s bid for 10 points a book, and every extra book is a bag (10 bags cost 100). Get set and you lose 10 a book. Nil is worth 100 either way. The host picks 200, 300 or 500 to win in the lobby. Start a table from Play or walk up to a table on the Spades Block in The Yard.
