A QUICK START

One board. Everything fits.

  1. Tap a domino to rotate it. Each tap turns it a quarter turn clockwise. Each half fills one cell. A blank is zero.
  2. Drag it onto the board. You can also tap a cell for its first half. Keep tapping the domino, use Rotate, or press R to turn it again.
  3. Follow each region’s rule. Dominoes can cross region borders. Every domino must be placed and every region satisfied.

Tap a placed domino to select it, then rotate, move, or return it to the tray. Use Undo freely. There is no timer limit or penalty for experimenting.

Hints highlight a region, explain candidate eliminations, reveal a move, then place it. Revealing the full solution ends the board as practice.

Keyboard: Tab between controls, arrows between cells, Enter or Space to select/place, R to rotate, Escape to deselect.

How this review works

Matching copies of a domino are interchangeable. Different placements or values count as different solutions.

Easy uses direct deductions. Medium includes one check of forced consequences. Hard requires several such checks or a deeper search. These are reasoning estimates; your experience may differ.

This medium board has 16 cells, 8 dominoes and 6 connected regions. Fill every cell and make all region conditions true at the same time.

Region A contains 3 cells; Region B contains 2 cells; Region C contains 3 cells; Region D contains 2 cells; Region E contains 3 cells; Region F contains 3 cells. Start with the smallest or most restricted region, then check how a domino’s second half affects its neighbor.
