Triominos® adds a third dimension to the classic game of dominoes. Experience the game in different play modes.

Search for your friends by username or invite your Facebook friends to play. You can play as many games as you want, simultaneously! Receive push notifications when someone invited you or made a move. ▶ OR PLAY BY YOURSELF If you want to play on your own or practice in between games with friends, try the single player mode—you can test your skills and strategy by playing against the computer. ▶ HOW TO PLAY Slide your triangular tiles onto the “board,” matching one of the sides with the side of a tile that’s already in play. You’ll earn points for each tile you play, and bonus points for making combinations like a bridge, a hexagon, or a double hexagon.
