Dragomino

Each player puts a starting domino in front of them; this is the beginning of your island. Four exploration dominoes are laid face up in the middle of the table. Every domino has two squares of landscape, chosen from six types: desert, snow, prairie, forest, mountain and volcano. The egg tokens are sorted into a pile for each landscape, egg side up.

The player holding the Mommy Dragon figure, who is the youngest player at the start, picks a domino first, and the others follow clockwise. You add your domino to your island so that it touches a domino you have already placed.

For every side where the same landscape meets on your island, you take an egg from that landscape's pile and turn it over. It is either a baby dragon, worth 1 point, or an empty shell. An empty shell isn't all bad news: you take the Mommy Dragon, which means you choose first next round.

Each landscape's pile hides exactly 7 baby dragons, but the piles are different sizes, from 14 eggs for desert down to 9 for volcano. Matching rarer landscapes like volcano therefore gives you a better chance of a dragon, which older players can take into account when choosing tiles.

When all 28 exploration dominoes have been placed, everyone counts their baby dragons, and whoever has the Mommy Dragon gets 1 extra point. The most points wins; if there is a tie, the player with more empty shells wins. The rulebook also has a variant called Dragon's Thirst, in which matching next to a water pond lets you draw two eggs and keep one.

There is no Indian edition. Toycra carries Kingdomino and several other Blue Orange games, but it did not list Dragomino on 5 October 2026. Gamebae (gamebae.in), which describes itself as Blue Orange's official licensee in India, did not list it either; its catalogue of about two dozen items is mostly Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza and other Blue Orange card games. For now the realistic option is to wait for Gameistry to restock at ₹2,750, or to ask Toycra or Gamebae whether they can bring it in. An expensive import on Amazon.in is not worth paying.

Blue Orange makes the only edition. In the US it is sold as 'My First Kingdomino: Dragomino' (item 09011), and European shops list a multilingual box with barcode 3664824000775. In India, Gameistry lists Dragomino at ₹2,750, out of stock, without saying which box it is. Board Games India has an 'on demand' Dragomino page at ₹9,999, also out of stock, with the brand shown as 'Yes Papa Games' rather than Blue Orange. We could not confirm that edition, so it is not in the price list. Amazon.in had only imported copies at several times the store price. The grown-up Kingdomino (8+) is easy to find in comparison: Bored Game Company sells its own Indian edition for ₹600.
