Dominate is a logic puzzle that uses a standard 'double six' set of dominoes. The puzzle board represents all of the 28 dominoes from 0:0 to 6:6 placed next to each other in an 8 by 7 grid. The problem is, you can't see which squares join to which others to form the dominoes.

Your task is to applying logic to determine a layout for the entire board such that each domino is used only once.

Great idea for a game, but my brain hurts just thinking about it!

Thanks. Can't claim credit for the original idea, my father taught it to me as a paper-based puzzle where you draw lines around the dominoes. Then later he created a BBC BASIC version for the Acorn Archimedes. He taught me to program too, so I have a lot to thank him for.

In my defence, It's not actually that difficult once you get started, and the tutorial should help you get a good understanding of the game. But then, I would say that :)
