Dominos

Released by Atari in 1977, Dominos is an arcade game where the objective is to topple all the dominoes lined up on the screen. Players navigate a character through a maze-like layout, requiring a strategic approach to create a continuous chain reaction that knocks down the illuminated dominoes. Although presented on a black-and-white monitor, the gameplay—which challenges players to avoid obstacles while efficiently aiming for these chains—served as a precursor to puzzle elements in early video games. With its simple yet profound design, the game stands as an essential historical artifact for understanding the evolution of the action-puzzle genre.
