 Make a chain of dominoes.
 
-Compute a way to order a given set of dominoes in such a way that they form a correct domino chain (the dots on one half of a stone match the dots on the neighboring half of an adjacent stone) and that dots on the halves of the stones which don't have a neighbor (the first and last stone) match each other.
+Compute a way to order a given set of domino stones so that they form a correct domino chain.
+In the chain, the dots on one half of a stone must match the dots on the neighboring half of an adjacent stone.
+Additionally, the dots on the halves of the stones without neighbors (the first and last stone) must match each other.
 
 For example given the stones `[2|1]`, `[2|3]` and `[1|3]` you should compute something
 like `[1|2] [2|3] [3|1]` or `[3|2] [2|1] [1|3]` or `[1|3] [3|2] [2|1]` etc, where the first and last numbers are the same.

+# Introduction
+
+In Toyland, the trains are always busy delivering treasures across the city, from shiny marbles to rare building blocks.
+The tracks they run on are made of colorful domino-shaped pieces, each marked with two numbers.
+For the trains to move, the dominoes must form a perfect chain where the numbers match.
+
+Today, an urgent delivery of rare toys is on hold.
+You've been handed a set of track pieces to inspect.
+If they can form a continuous chain, the train will be on its way, bringing smiles across Toyland.
+If not, the set will be discarded, and another will be tried.
+
+The toys are counting on you to solve this puzzle.
+Will the dominoes connect the tracks and send the train rolling, or will the set be left behind?
