Dominion -- great game!

It's a fun game with strategy involved, but straightforward enough that even people who aren't really into strategy games will like it.

There are not very many games out there that are great for two players, and this is one of them. I initially thought that since it was a "deckbuilding game" that it would be something that I would have to purchase more cards for, but the full game is included. I bought Star Realms on a recommendation from a friend when I asked him for advice on a cheap-ish game gift... then I had to buy a copy for myself too, which I've probably played 20 times. The way my friend described it, it's like the fun part a draft in Magic the Gathering, turned into its own game. The rules are fairly simple, yet there are many possible winning strategies. If you, Magic, Dominion, or trick-based card games, you'll enjoy this too. Plus, it is non-habit-forming for your wallet ;)

Definitely recommend this game.  The single player is fun.  And the multiplayer is fantastic.

I love Dominion and all its various expansions.  I purchased this expansion to get Cornucopia as I hadn't managed to get my own copy of it and it seems to be hard to find.  However, I don't think I realized how much fun  Guilds would be!

I also didn't realize that Guilds has more of the coin tokens (like in Seaside) with it.  Cards which utilize coin tokens are always fun.  It adds a nice dynamic to the game.  If you are looking for an expansion for your game nights and want something not so complicated, then this set is for you! Plus you are getting two sets at once so that's even better.

Please do note: you must, must have either Dominion 1E, Dominion 2E, or Intrigue 1E to play this game.  That is, you need base cards!  This isn't playable on it's own.

Bought this on spec and I am loving it. It's a great way to explore the abilities of the game characters and get to grips with the game rules without picking the manual up for every move! Can't wait for the multiplayer version but in the meantime this is a lot of fun. Hope they do some more Quests! After playing this I had a lot more fun playing the real board game with friends. I also heard rumour it's coming to tablets and smartphones!?

This is one of the mot fun Monopoly games I;ve played! Don't take all night long. I with more than 4 people could play, but still a lot of fun!

I own four of the Dominion games, including Intrigue, Seaside, Alchemy, and now Dark Ages.  What I really enjoyed about Dark Ages were the Knights.  Each were individually named and had different functions.  I strongly recommend this Dominion expansion.  The entertainment Dark Ages provides is well worth the money.

This game is great. There is a lot of thought  that went into the design. The pacing seems balenced for any number of players. The components of the game are of good quality, and the theme is strong (especially if you have read "Finding Gossamyr"). It keeps you engaged and provides lots of opportunities to strategize to play towards your strengths. I have played this game with friends a few times and each time we have had a different outcome based on our strategies. It is definitely worth the short amount of time to learn to play this game with some friends.

I saw this game and I had to have it. It was so fun to play especially if you know the areas in World of Warcraft. I highly recommend this game if you like Monopoly and World of Warcraft. It made an excellent combination!

These are two mini expansions to Dominion.  Both are good and I recommend them.

Guilds is one of my favorite Dominion expansions.  The addition of coin tokens, which can be saved and spent later, reduces early game luck and adds more tactical choices.  Definitely try this one out!

Cornucopia is a solid addition to the game.  I like adding it to the mix, but it's not particularly memorable.  The cards reward you for having a variety of cards in your deck, rather than specializing.  It's fun to have stuff like that come out on occasion, forcing you to adjust your strategies.  However, it can lead to all players pursuing the same strategy (a little bit of everything) -- ok on occasion, but not something you want happening every game.  However, despite those criticisms, I recommend adding it into your mix!

As someone who had never played a deck building game previous to this one, I can say that this game sure introduced me to a game mechanic I now love.  While it's been referred to as "Dominion with a board", it is so much more.  I've played around 150 board games and this is still my favorite of all the games.

An amazing game! Had a blast playing it with my friends!

SUCH A FUN GAME!  It feels like you're playing a video game with paper.  I love it, and it seems to engage everyone very quickly.

This is a great card and die game.  One of my favorites (I have played 50+ easily) because there are many ways to win the game.  The rules are alright in explanation but once you play, they make a lot more sense.  The game is good either 2 or 3 players (never played 4 yet) and has a tremendous amount of replay value since there are several ways to win the game (and every time you roll dice there are different results obviously).  You can play a game in 45 minutes or less- the time is spent with you deciding which action (what you rolled with your dice) you want to take.  Great game and the card board pieces are very good and firm- not cheap as all!

With 2 players this is great. There's some competition for cards and you can easily remember or see the other persons tomb to snatch cards from them, but collecting sets is still very easy and the game flows nicely. Only minus I guess is that there's too much cards for both, so the competition is not that fierce, although I suspect with more players people would specialize even more, since it's more important to get to a high number of the same set than to block someone a bit. In 2 players blocking someone of a card is more beneficial since he/she is your only opponent. All in all, I haven't played 3 or 4, but I would love to try them. I suspect 4 could be pushing it in terms of competition, but maybe 3 would be 'best' here?

Final Thoughts

Ok, I really like deck building in general, but there are so many deck builders out at the moment and not all of them are good. I've also gotten kind of bored to Dominion. My favourites are Legendary Alien, Xenoshyft and Star Realms at the moment, but I have to say Valley of the Kings could really be up there. I love the theme and it will be easier to teach to many people because of the theme, it feels different with the entombing and it's an attractive small package you can play anywhere and easily take with you. One of my favourite things in a deck builder is the ability to thin your deck and here it's built into the rules!(just like Xenoshyft in which I LOVE the ability to turn in Xenosathem and troops for discounts/better cards)The game is also cheap compared to the amount of game in it, so I can't really say anything bad about this so far. Thanks to Tom Cleaver for a unique and very interesting deck builder!
