If you cannot place a Giant or Footsteps domino, do you still get its Giant or footprint effect?
The publisher answered this directly in 2018, and several replies quote the rule's wording to the same effect.

No. The effect happens only when the domino is added to your kingdom. If it cannot be placed and is discarded, you take or place no Giant, send none away, and get no footprint benefit.
