🁣 Domino Kingdom — a free maths game for kids
Dominoes where a 3 can be matched by three dots, by 1+2, by 6÷2 or by one half of six.
Because a tile end may show ⚫⚫⚫, the numeral 3, 1+2 or ½ of 6, every turn asks the child to convert between representations of the same number — and then to choose which of their legal moves leaves them best placed. Equivalence plus strategy in one board.
How to play

- 4Empty your hand first to win the round and add a building to your kingdom.
Frequently asked questions
- Is this ordinary dominoes?
- The rules are ordinary dominoes; the matching is not. Ends match on value, so a numeral end can be answered with a sum, a product or an equivalent fraction depending on the grade band.
- Who do you play against?
- Four AI opponents with distinct habits — Rookie plays the first legal tile, Master looks ahead — so the difficulty of the opponent scales alongside the maths.
- What is the kingdom?
- Every round won adds a building to a medieval town that persists on the device — a castle, a bridge, a blacksmith, a stable.
- Does it cost anything?
- No, it is free with no signup.
