Derived Play: Speech Bubble Domino

Prompt text

Use case: scientific-educational / derived play mechanic: speech-bubble-domino
Asset type: public gallery concept image, square printable classroom game mat
Primary request: Create one polished concept image titled exactly "Derived Play: Speech Bubble Domino". Derive a playable language-learning prompt game from Dialogue Comic Tutor: players connect short dialogue domino tiles to repair a fictional four-panel cafe comic while preserving character identity and readable bilingual text.

Output format: one square 1:1 printable game mat / classroom activity sheet, not a physical tabletop product photo, not a device, not a tray, not a lab bench, not a 2x3 research board, not a contact sheet. The page should feel like a complete flat educational activity graphic.

Scene/backdrop: clean ivory paper game mat with a winding domino path around four small comic windows from an imaginary unbranded cafe. Use the same fictional adult characters from the tutor concept: Mara, a barista with short black hair and green apron, and Niko, a visitor with round glasses and yellow scarf. Keep the characters consistent but simplified in the small windows.

Gameplay mechanism: illustrated speech-bubble domino tiles sit along a path. Players must match intent, language, and panel order. A wrong tile is shown with a tiny coral "swap" arrow; the correct tile snaps into place. Include small rule icons for text accuracy, tone, face consistency, panel order, and pass scoring.

Exact readable text to render, keep short: title "Derived Play: Speech Bubble Domino"; tile text "Tea?", "Yes", "谢谢", "Thanks", "Swap", "Match", "Tone", "Face", "Panel", "PASS"; corner label "Round 2". Do not add random placeholder text.

Visual style: crisp contemporary educational illustration, flat printable worksheet design with polished UI-like clarity, clean ink line, soft watercolor spot art, strong accessible contrast, graphite text, teal path, saffron success chips, coral swap mark, rounded speech bubbles. Use a more playful game layout than the tutor worksheet, but no real brands, no famous characters, no public figures, no politics, no adult content, no violence, no dangerous instructions, no copyrighted characters, no living-artist style imitation, no watermark.
