If you aren’t familiar with domino, it’s a family of tile-based games. Also known as “gaming pieces,” dominoes are rectangular tiles with square ends and a numbered spot on each end. You can use these spots to score points by placing your tiles on top of each other.

Origins

The game of domino has various origins. Many believe it was created in France during the eighteenth century. French prisoners brought the game to England, where it spread quickly. However, it has also been said to have originated with the Inuit, who played the game with bone-like objects. Regardless of its origins, the game is a popular pastime in pubs today.

Variants

The game of domino has multiple versions from different parts of the world. Its roots date back to the seventeenth century in China. The tiles of dominoes are twice the length and width of a standard playing card, and are marked with either one or six spots, which represent its value. There are also many variations of the game, including ones involving the number of pips on each tile.

Rules

There are many variations of the game of domino. Each version varies slightly in how the line of play is defined. However, the general objective of the game is to build an empty hand. In many variants, doubles are allowed on any side of the line but are not required to do so. Alternatively, some variants allow players to block the line of play in one direction.

Cost

Despite the low cost of making the pizza, Domino’s still has a high overhead. Besides paying for utilities and leasing space for stores, the company has to pay for advertising and marketing activities.

Accessibility

The decision involving Domino’s website and mobile application lays down a precedent for other companies and products that are looking to improve accessibility. The ADA prohibits discrimination against individuals with disabilities in places of public accommodation, and Domino’s failure to make its website and mobile application accessible to people with disabilities violates the ADA’s Title III. In addition, Domino’s website and mobile application failed to meet the industry’s guideline for accessibility, the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.0). WCAG 2.0 has 12 guidelines and three levels of conformance, and Domino has failed to meet all of these.
