Domino Man
This game is from the same people who did Tapper and the artwork is a
dead giveaway. While the game concept is different, the art style is the
same. Same big cartoony people and the same little touches of humor.
This was another of the many games that had slipped from my memory
before MAME brought it back.
Your job is to line up dominoes along the street. Why in the world would
you want to do that in a fairly busy area is beyond me. Maybe your
character just likes to cause trouble. Anyway, you have to set these up
and keep them from being knocked down. Your opponents come in many
shapes and sizes from little doggies to big bullies. You use your trusty
domino to smack some and others you just push out of the way. A bit of a
rude game, but an artist need to express himself.
There are multiple levels with you going into different areas like city
streets and golf course. There are many different people moving around
and this adds to the joy of the game. Another nice little touch is that
at the end of the game, there is a poem that changes as you get a better
score. A nice little touch that will keep you coming back to see all the
poems.
Another fun little game that will force you to waste time and become
unproductive. I do recommend giving it a go as it is fun. Not as good as
Tapper, but not many games are.
This is just a review of the arcade machine. If you
are looking for the actual arcade machine, you may want to check out
ebay. Click below to see if you can find this game.
