Dragomino
Bruno Cathala, Jérémy Pinget, Marie Fort, Wilfried Fort · Blue Orange Games · 2020
A children's version of Kingdomino where domino tiles reveal dragon eggs — matching terrains hatch eggs into baby dragons while mismatches produce empty shells. The egg-cracking excitement makes this the perfect first modern game for young children.

How it plays
Dragomino is a children's version of Kingdomino. Players pick domino tiles showing different landscapes and add them to their island, matching at least one side to the same landscape.
Whenever you create a new pair of matching landscapes, you look under an egg token to see if a baby dragon has hatched. The player who finds the most baby dragons wins. It's quick, has no reading, and is designed for children around 5 and up.
May not be for you if…
- Too simple for anyone over age 8
- Very limited strategic depth
- Luck of egg draws dominates
- Adults will want something meatier
