Kingdomino board game

Kingdomino is a critically acclaimed tile-laying board game designed by Bruno Cathala and published by Blue Orange Games. Since its release in 2016, it has become a modern classic, winning the prestigious Spiel des Jahres (Game of the Year) award in 2017. The game mechanics are inspired by traditional dominoes but involve building a kingdom using matching terrain types to maximize scoring potential.

The game's brand origin is rooted in France, where both the designer and the original publishing roots are established. While Blue Orange Games is a prominent international publisher with a significant presence in the United States, its founding identity is deeply tied to the European tabletop gaming market. Manufacturing of Kingdomino and its expansions typically occurs in specialized board game production facilities, often located in China or European countries like Germany or Poland, depending on the specific edition and distribution region.

Blue Orange continues to act as the primary owner and global distributor of the brand, maintaining a reputation for family-friendly games with high-quality physical components. The brand remains privately held by the founders of Blue Orange Games.
