Domino-Chain is a 2D singleplayer puzzle game where you control a figure in various landscape with large domino pieces. Your goal is to push over the domino pieces in a chain reaction in the correct way and go through the exit.

This game is a remake of the proprietary game Pushover with new levels, own graphics and audio.

Gameplay[edit]

In each level, you can walk around the level, pick up and place dominoes and push a single domino.

To open the exit, you must push every domino (except the all-red ones) and make sure the special "Trigger" domino (a yellow domino with 3 red stripes) falls last. This will open the exit. Walk through, and you complete the level.

Levels have an optional time limit. You can try to beat the level in time, or ignore the clock.

Domino types[edit]

There are many different domino types which behave differently. Dominoes are either yellow, red, or yellow with red stripes or other patterns drawn on them. Some of the most common dominoes include:

  • Standard (yellow): Regular domino that can be tipped over
  • Blocker (red): Can not be tipped over, but also doesn't have to fall to open the exit
  • Delay Stone (yellow with red diagonal split): Domino will fall after a delay
  • Trigger (yellow with 3 stripes): Must fall last to open the exit. Cannot be picked up

Many other domino types exist.

Levels[edit]

Domino-Chain version 1.1 comes with 4 tutorial levels and 34 regular levels.

The game also optionally supports playing the levels of the game Pushover by manually copying the levels over. It is not necessary to install those levels to play the game.
