Product Description
MAPOMINOES UK is the game that takes you to the 4 corners of the country!
This portable game is fun, easy to learn, educational and highly addictive and makes a great present for any family member interested in geography or travel.
It's like dominoes but with maps, as you build a map of the United Kingdom, by connecting counties that share a common border. Stay one step ahead of your opponents, as you race to be the first player to play all your county cards on the table and win the game.
Block access to the Scottish Borders by holding on to Northumberland or Cumbria or open up Wales by playing Powys. Take a boat through the Irish Sea to Northern Ireland or transit by train through Surrey to Hampshire or Berkshire. Try not to get cut off in Cornwall, stuck on Shetland or isolated on the Isle of Anglesey, as the county cards spread across the table.
The excitement builds as you have fewer and fewer cards left to play, but less space to play them in as you reach the table's edge!
Every county card is different and hence no two games are ever the same in this clever game that you will want to play again and again.
A simple game with hidden strategic depth that gives it broad appeal to both children and adults.
Suitable for 2-5 players. Age 8+.

An interesting and educational game that never gets boring. Quality cards that are a pleasure to use. I have bought all the continental sets and use them at home as well as giving them as presents. Almost everyone will improve their knowledge of UK geography through using this version of Mapominoes. Make sure you play on a big table!

I was dubious about this game when my Mum rang and said "Get Mapominoes for Christmas. Just played it and it's great". How fun can dominos really be? But yep, she was right and late Christmas Day saw 5 of us (wife's side of family) playing and enjoying the game.
No need to be a geography nerd but you'll soon start getting excited about areas of the United Kingdom you know well and can potentially play next round.

We have all the mapominoes set and thoroughly enjoy playing with them all either individually or mixing a couple of packs, though you need a lot of floor space for that! Glad they have brought out the UK version, we had discussions about that last year. Wonder what could be next....
