- A number of tongo parlors existed on Ferenginar, including Geln's Tongo Parlor. (DS9 - Worlds of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine novel: Ferenginar: Satisfaction is Not Guaranteed) It was also one of several games one could play at Quark's. (DS9 episodes: "Rules of Acquisition", "Playing God", "Change of Heart") Jadzia Dax was a highly successful Tongo player and made a lot of money playing at Quark's.

- Tongo was a strategic Ferengi game that was a combination of cards and roulette and which was played with two to eight players. The object of the game was to win by acquiring as much wealth as possible. On a given turn, a player could "confront", "evade", "acquire", or "retreat". Each venture had a "risk" amount, a "buy" amount, and a "sell" amount, where the risk amount was equal to the sell amount minus the buy amount. Other possible actions a player could take include "indexing the margin", "indexing the exchange", "leveraging the buy-in", and "converting reserves". (DS9: "Change of Heart")

- Tongo was a strategic Ferengi game that was a combination of cards and roulette and which was played with two to eight players. The object of the game was to win by acquiring as much wealth as possible. On a given turn, a player could "confront", "evade", "acquire", or "retreat". Each venture had a "risk" amount, a "buy" amount, and a "sell" amount, where the risk amount was equal to the sell amount minus the buy amount. Other possible actions a player could take include "indexing the margin", "indexing the exchange", "leveraging the buy-in", and "converting reserves". (DS9: "Change of Heart") Possible tongo hands included a "full consortium" and a "total monopoly" (the latter being higher than the former). (DS9: "Change of Heart") According to Jadzia Dax, the key to tongo was "to confront when you're sure you're in a better position than the other players. And if your cards match the roll of the dice, then you win." (DS9: "Meridian") According to Quark, tongo was more than just "number-crunching"; they had yet to create a computer that could master the intricacies of the game. (DS9: "Change of Heart") A Global Tongo Championship was held each year on Ferenginar. As of 2373, Zek had won the tournament for twenty-seven years in a row. He also played it for fun. (DS9: "Ferengi Love Songs", "Profit and Lace") Miles O'Brien once played tongo against a Ferengi privateer and a Romulan mercenary. (DS9: "Change of Heart") Quark was on a 208-game winning streak over a month-long period during mid-2374 when he beat Jadzia for his 207th victory, causing Worf to lose a bet with O'Brien for a bottle of scotch whisky. O'Brien enlisted Julian Bashir to help beat Quark and end his streak, but Bashir failed when Quark distracted him with talk of Jadzia and Worf's recent marriage to chalk up his 208th victory. (DS9: "Change of Heart") During his association with Gaila, when he believed he might be killed, Quark made a gift of his tongo wheel to Jadzia. (DS9: "Business as Usual") In early 2375, Quark suggested that letting Worf beat him in a game of tongo would be a great battle and would enable Jadzia to enter Sto-vo-kor. O'Brien told him it would only be enough if he had to "carve his way through a hundred Jem'Hadar to reach the table." (DS9: "Image in the Sand") Later that year, Quark wanted to play tongo in Vic Fontaine's lounge, although since the holoprogram was period-specific he was unable to. (DS9: "What You Leave Behind")

- thumb|Eine Partie Tongo thumb|Tongokarten Tongo ist ein Spiel der Ferengi und eine eine Mischung aus Roulette und Kartenspiel. Beim Tongo geht es um Kalkulation und Strategie. Das Spiel ist sehr komplex und laut Quark mehr als nur Zahlen durchkauen. Es gibt daher auch noch keinen Computer, der in der Lage ist beim Tongo zu gewinnen. Das Spiel besteht aus einem Rad, in dessen Mitte sich ein Behälter befindet. In diesem Behälter werden die Einsätze aus Latinum gesammelt. Tongo wird mindestens zu zweit gespielt, kann aber auch mit mehr Spielern gespielt werden. Einer der Mitspieler ist der Geber. Während einer laufenden Runde ist es nicht erlaubt, Anweisungen von Dritten zu bekommen. Gewöhnliche Züge beim Tongo sind Kaufen, Verkaufen, Austauschen und Ausweichen. Zwischendurch kann die Prozentgrenze verändert werden. Sonderzüge sind Kapitaleinlage zum Einkaufen und Reserven konvertieren. Nach jedem Zug wird das Tongorad gedreht. Am Ende des Spiels wird konfrontiert und der Spieler mit der Besten Hand gewinnt. Eine gute Hand beim Tongo ist das Volle Konsortium, noch besser ist jedoch ein Totales Monopoly. (DS9: ) Auf Ferenginar findet jedes Jahr ein Globales Tongochampionat statt. Der Große Nagus Zek gewinnt das Turnier 2373, trotz kleiner Schwierigkeiten, zum 27. mal in Folge. (DS9: ) Jeden Dienstagabend spielt Jadzia Dax zusammen mit Quark und den anderen Angestellten der Bar Tongo. (DS9: ) 2374 hat Quark eine unglaubliche Glücksserie und gewinnt 207 Spiele in Folge. Miles O'Brien möchte diese Serie unbedingt brechen, ist aber kein besonders guter Tongospieler. Daher entscheiden er und Julian Bashir sich dafür, dass Julian gegen Quark antritt. Aufgrund seiner genetischen Verbesserungen begreift Bashir das Spiel sofort. Am Ende gewinnt jedoch wieder Quark, da er ein totales Monopoly hat und Julian nur ein Volles Konsortium. Um zu gewinnen wendet Quark eine List an und verwickelt Bashir in ein Gespräch über seine verflossene Liebe Jadzia Dax. (DS9: )
