I was looking to learn to play dominoes but to my horror I can't find any dominoes games/puzzles in Zillions.

Well, you have not looked hard enough then:

My game Quadrilles shows a lot of domino puzzles,
some historic, some new, and there is also the game with the name - guess what - "Domino Puzzles".

There is no 2-player game, because in Zillions
you cannot really hide the pieces to one player while showing them to the other player.
That is why I did not implement it.
When players agree not to look at the status bar, though, and players are placed not on the same screen, you can hide the values, though.

So feel free to implement it if you like.

Cheers, Karl

Correction: it's "dominoes", not domino. Domino is the name of the dominoes brick. If one uses a different name then one should give the correct name in the commentary so that one can find it when searching.

Thanks a bunch for your implementations! Why can't a random players be used for implementing true many-player dominoes? When one picks an hidden domino then the random player drops a defined domino on the same location.
