Kingdomino Duel
Many games can be played by two people, but there are also games that are only intended for a pair of players. One of them is Kingdomino Duel , a title recently released by Fox Games. This is another proposal from the well-known Kingdomino series , but this time the authors focused on the recently popular roll & write category.
During the game, our task is to fill the sheet with symbols. It will be our kingdom and it is up to us how well it will score at the end of the game. Mechanically it is a very simple game – roll the dice, make a “tile” into a domino and redraw symbols onto a piece of paper. The whole fun is about choosing the right walls. The better dice we choose for the kingdom, the less spells we get. They are not necessary to win, but useful, and finding the right balance is the key.
There is no question that the game is suitable for two players – it is literally made for them. Is it better than its bigger colleagues in the series? It is an individual matter. It is definitely fast, nicely made and has a very practical magnetic clasp, which makes it easy to carry. Recently, I haven’t had much time for a few hours’ games and I usually play in two, which is why these types of games work very well for me, and Kingdomino Duel has joined them. – Katarzyna Satława
