Android Quick App: Domino Solitaire [video]

Domino Solitaire

Domino Solitaire is a new puzzle game on the Android Market, and I, for one, am loving it.� It's a great way to spend a little quiet time exercising your gray matter, and it's fun.� Some puzzle games are too easy to offer a challenge, while some are too difficult to make you want to return for more. Domino Solitaire falls right into the in-between space that makes a great app. Paired with the big 10.1 inch display on the Motorola Xoom, and it's something we had to take a better look at.

The premise is simple -- a domino deck is used to draw a board, and you have to try to find out which domino is which.� It's not as easy as it sounds, because each domino will fit in multiple places until you start getting some of them filled in.� It sounds much more confusing than it really is, and in just a few minutes you'll have it down and be hunting dominoes like a pro.� As a bonus, you also have the game Buccaneer Domino, which ramps up the difficulty a bit.� The objective is to place the double tiled dominoes on the bottom of seven stacks.� You can move dominoes from one stack to another, as long as at least one side of each matches.� The trick is that each stack can only hold five tiles, so there's a lot of strategy involved.� I haven't been able to beat this one yet, but I'm having a lot of fun trying.

Both games have clear and easy-to-understand gameplay, and should provide a lot of fun to anyone who is a fan of relaxed single-player games.� Domino Solitaire is free on the Market for Android 2.0.1 and up, works on both phones and tablets, and will install to the SD�card on Android 2.2 or higher.� The download link, and a video are after the break.
