About this board game

Cubed: Next Level Dominoes is a modern dominoes-style strategy game for 1–11 players, with a play time of 120 minutes. Released in 2023, it transforms the familiar matching concept with volumetric, tri-coloured hexagon pieces.

Players take turns placing their pieces on the play table. To make a placement, pieces must match the colour and height of the table pieces, creating a more layered challenge than traditional dominoes.

Strategic blocking adds another dimension to every turn. Use blocking pieces to prevent opponents from placing pieces in adjacent areas, disrupting their plans while working toward your own objective.

  • Match pieces by colour and height.
  • Use blocking pieces to restrict adjacent areas.
  • Plan your placements to get rid of your pieces first.
  • Add a points system for round-based play.

The standard objective is simple: be the first player to get rid of all your pieces and win the game. Finding the right placement, managing available options, and anticipating blocked areas are central to the experience.

For an additional challenge, Cubed: Next Level Dominoes can be played in rounds using a points system. In this format, the player with the lowest score wins, offering a different way to approach each placement and each decision.

With its combination of colour matching, height matching, and tactical blocking, Cubed: Next Level Dominoes gives the classic dominoes idea a distinctly modern approach. Players can strategize, colorize, and monopolize the play table as they work to clear their pieces.
