As an example, each continuous area of cavern will score points equal to the number of points shown on any mines, by the number of matching tiles – two multiplied by four, for example. Their objective will be to build a maximum of a five by five grid of dominoes that scores them the highest possible amount as the result of placing matching tiles next to each other, along with the less frequent building tiles that match the same types of terrain. Small children, I’ve found, can play the game itself before being able to score their own work, and it’s possible to teach the basis of a “good score” simply because of the visual aspects of the game, even if said child can’t actually add up their own score.Įach player will begin the game with either one or two king meeples, depending on player count, and one castle square. There are two phases to each turn, and once the game is over, there’s a scoring round that takes a couple of minutes and requires a basic command of maths that includes addition and multiplication. Now that at least one of my children is reaching the age where she’ll be able to play more family (rather than child) orientated games, the bright colours and simple gameplay of Kingdomino really caught my eye, and I was keen to try it.Īs it turns out, Kingdomino is so simple that it almost bears no need for an explanation.
As the winner of numerous awards, including the 2017 Spiel Des Jahres (Game of the Year) this light, family orientated tile laying game is beloved by gamers of all ages and experience levels, but until recently, I’d never even seen it laid out on the table. Kingdomino is a game that needs no introduction.
