In Zoomino, you want to frame as many animals as possible to display them in your zoo. To set up, take eight frames in a single color, shuffle the dominoes face down on the table, then give each player two dominoes. Each turn, each player places one domino in their play area and another face down in front of the player to their left. They then draw a domino from the table to have two in hand again. You must place dominoes in your area horizontally and adjacent to other tiles to form at least one animal. If you create a real animal, frame it! If both backgrounds on the tile match the player color, use the solid side of the frame, which is worth 2 points; otherwise, use the multi-colored side worth 1 point. When the draw pile is empty or someone has placed their eighth frame, the game ends. Players tally their points to see who wins, with a tie being broken in favor of the player with the most imaginary animals on a background of their color.
