And if you don't know it yet, it's time to fix that!


Mexican Train Domino: A game unlike any other

The principle? Each player must create their own domino “train” from a central station. The goal: place all of your dominoes before the others, respecting the connection rules… but also blocking the opposing trains when possible!

A subtle blend of tactics, anticipation and risk-taking , with a touch of bluffing that makes each game different.
