Dominos 2: Winter Edition is a physics based platformer where you play as a little green alien who can roll around and stick to things. In story mode, after your space ship crash lands on earth, navigate the snowy landscape to try and find your way back home, by surfing on dominos, carefully crawling along ceilings, sledding over spikes, and solving fun puzzles.
Beyond story mode, there is a powerful level editor which gives you the full capability to build your own level with a variety of objects, scenery and terrain types. Included is a level pack with some bonus levels contributed by friends and fans of the game.
Compared to its predecessor, Dominos, the main differences are:
- A much improved terrain system, allowing for smooth curves rather than jagged corners.
- The ability to stick to things.
- A level editor.
- A wider variety of obstacles and puzzles.
- Only one playable character.
Dominos 2: Winter Edition was originally released in December 2007 for the YoYo Games Winter Competition, in which it was awarded an honourable mention.

Trivia
- Originally hosted on YoYo Games as game #20418, but was lost when their website was redesigned. Can be found here on YoYo Games Archive.
- Upon starting development, the game was simply called Dominos 2 as a sequel to Dominos, which traverses through multiple different climates. However, when the YoYo Games Winter Competition was announced in 2007, I narrowed the focus to be completely winter themed, and renamed the game to Dominos 2: Winter Edition.
