Board game ‘Domino Puzzle’

About the game

Santa has lost the other half of his picture, whilst the snowman and the Christmas tree are also looking for their matching pieces. Help the festive characters find their pairs and make a long Christmas chain out of the tiles!

‘Domino Puzzle’ is a wooden board game in which the ends of the tiles feature halves of Christmas pictures. Players match the corresponding pieces, join them to form complete pictures and gradually extend the domino chain.

Each correctly attached tile reveals a new image and brings you closer to completing the festive chain.
