In this paper, we consider cooperative games arising from integer domination problem on graphs. We introduce two games, ${\kappa}-domination$ game and its monotonic relaxed game, and focus on their cores. We first give characterizations of the cores and the relationship between them. Furthermore, a common necessary and sufficient condition for the balancedness of both games is obtained by making use of the technique of linear programming and its duality.
