Impeccable

Awesome game. We all love it!

I fell in love of this deckbuilder game when I played it at my friend's house. The big box makes so much sense, specially if you don't have base game. Great box for organising Intrigue and other expansions (it has some extra spots). Quality is top notch and game is so much fun. Get it if you wanna dive into Dominion, highly recommended.

I'm new to the board game hobby and heard Dominion is one of the classics, and the originator of the deck-builder genre, so I figured I had to try it out. I ordered this big box because it was only 5$ more than the base game and it came with the expansion Intrigue and extra base cards to allow for 5-6 player play; a great deal! The game is as simple as your ABCs. Every player's turn is just : 1 Action, 1 Buy, then Cleanup. You use treasure to buy new cards from the middle shared supply to add to your deck, and at the end of the game, the winner is whoever has the most victory points in their deck. It sounds (and is) super simple to pick up and play, which was super important to me, because I've had to teach it to many friends / family members. The rules are simple, but figuring out the best strategy? Not so much. I have so much fun playing this game and trying to figure out what is the most effective strategy with the cards on the table. And what's even cooler, is that no game will play the same, because you pick 10 kingdom piles to play with out of the 52 (26 from base game, 26 from intrigue) leading to an ever changing modular experience. I've played Magic the Gathering for years, so I expected to like this game because card games and deckbuilding is something I enjoy, however I didn't expect my girlfriend to enjoy it so much as well! The day after the game arrived we tried playing our first games together and ended up playing for 3 hours straight without even realizing! This game is a ton of fun and a staple of the board gaming hobby. Dominion deserves a spot on everyone's shelf! The only downsides I can think of are : - With constant shuffling, cards may get damaged over time (and if sleeved, cards will no longer fit into their organized places in the box) - The box is big (as said in the title) and fairly heavy. I bring it to my friend's houses but you will need both arms to carry! - And finally, the game isn't anything to look at. The cards themselves have pretty dull art and the art style / art direction is a little dated. Going from Mysterium (a solid game with GORGEOUS ART) to this with my family was a bit of a shock. So if pretty pictures is really important to you for enjoying your board games, take that into consideration. Take a look at some of the card art online and judge for yourself Overall, this game is phenomenal, and its surface simplicity paired with potential depth lends itself to players of all degrees of gaming ability. I 100% recommend, what are you waiting for? Get Dominion! Play games with friends and family!
