Domino Master

It's just that dominos on a console doesn't have the same allure as card games, and there's very little here to justify an 800 point purchase.

I thoroughly enjoyed Domino Master and I’ll probably go back for more games even after I finish reviewing it.

Dominoes isn't about the game at all, it never was and never will be. It's about the social interaction. That's something that doesn't translate well online.

There is nothing broken with this game: it’s just a bit boring, and some functionality is missing.

Domino Master's a bit like going to Baskin-Robbins and noticing the employees refilling the containers with generic grocery-store-brand ice cream.

Domino Master is nothing more than dominos in five flavours with the ability to go online. If this excites you then you should download Domino Master right away, for now this is the one-and-only domino game on Live.

Basically, if you want to play a game of online domino's, just like what you'd be able to play at home, then Domino Master delivers. However, it'd be nice if there was something about the game to really made it stand out, some type of new mode or something introduced strictly for the video game version, to keep it from feeling like a simple board game cash in.

Domino Master isn’t going to overpower a gamer with variations of the game and what you get is pretty straight forward.

The clean, simple interface serves Domino Master well, but complete games (composed of several matches) drag on too long, and the tile-placement guides slice too much of the plotting and planning from the experience. [Dec 2008, p.73]
