This analytical study evaluates the digital game *DOMINO: The Little One* as a pedagogical tool for climate education, finding that while its design effectively fosters systems thinking through procedural rhetoric and ecological literacy, it ultimately frames climate action primarily as individual responsibility while overlooking structural drivers, with conclusions limited to design features due to the absence of player-participant data.
