Domino - Philips CD-i Gameplay
1Released in 1997 exclusively in the Netherlands, Domino is a digital conversion of the classical tile laying game of Dominoes. Each rectangular tile has a number of dots on both long ends. In turns players place one of their tiles on the table. Tiles must connect to evenly numbered edges. The first player to lose all his tiles wins the game. When the player can't place any of his tiles he has to pass.

FUN FACT: Haarlems Uitgeef Bedrijf only developed two games, both of which are CD-i games that are exclusive to the Netherlands. Besides Domino, their only other game was De Zaak van Sam, an interactive FMV adventure game inspired by Film Noir Hollywood detectives from the 30s and 40s.
Interestingly, the only recorded review on MobyGames for this game comes from a 2004 review by The CD-i Collective, who gave it 2/5, whose summary stated that the lack of an automated opponent, the minimal variation of tiles and really the strange lack of two controlers support all total up to a less than pleasing experience.
