Is this version the newer edition that comes with the two promo cards they're advertising on the Asmodee website?

I'm not sure what the two promo cards are, but this item arrived with exactly 84 cards as it says in the description, so I guess the answer is no.

I purchased this on October 15th direct from Amazon. It wasn't the 2014 version, but the 2012-2013 version. But I noticed the product image has changed to the 2014 version after I purchased it.

I believe this is the second edition of the game from Eagle Games, not sure of the differences from the 1st to 2nd, but as far as I know the one they are selling is the 2nd edition that was released in 2010.

You don't necessarily have to by the original, but it doesn't make much sense because the amount of cards you get in the expansion is very small compared to the core game. Also, like others have said, its nice to have the instructions. If you can't buy them all, I know in the past they have provided the ability to print the cards for free. I think its worth buying them to support the company, but also the quality of the cards would be much worse if you printed them off.

The one I bought from this listing was the first release with mini plush friend. So yes its the earlier version.

I bought the physical product, but it comes with a code in the box, so once you set up your account on their website you can go ahead and register it, verify it and then just download the newest version and get the updates. Once you do that you're good to go with the newest version available. Then once I bought an expansion pack I just did the same with that and it was all good to go. Hope that helps!

No - I thought it was, but when i ordered under this listing I was sent the smaller new game. My receipt even said "blokus classic", but that was not the one i received. I was able to get a refund, though.

Judith, there really is no difference. I bought the one marked "1996" version first, because that's how I remembered the box. It also costs more than the newer version. The only outward difference is the external look, one is white and the newer is blue and red. I then bought the newer version, thinking it was different. The ONLY difference concerning contents is the new version has an additional rules sheet in Spanish. Otherwise they're identical. The size of the box, the game cards, pieces, and board are all the same. Buy the one sold by Miles Kimball, it's the cheapest and has free shipping. Hope this helps.

Hi Kendyl,Yes this is the listing for the "original" larger game. You will see that there is also a statement that there is a newer version - this is the one one you do NOT want to purchase.

I think this version is newer on but you should also ask others. Sorry wish I knew for sure.

Check with Kruk Cards, but this should be the Premiere/base edition of the game. This is the one I ordered, and in answering your question, I can see the correct box in the picture provided with the question.

You should ask the seller for the newer version ( the one with the brown backing ) before ordering.

Yes. Although it's the old box art, it is indeed the 2nd edition. I purchased it a month or so ago and it was the 2nd edition.

No, I believe this is just the add on. You're better off finding an all inclusive edition if you dont have the originals already.

Deluxe illuminati doesn't have all the description on the cards. The regular one has everything in more detail. Basically deluxe Is the baby version.

Unsure, as never had older versions cards 8 1/8 x 5 6/8 w 10 answer light up dots on each side and cards say 2001 educational insights - so year of "copyright"

Different, only the promo cards are the same. The cards from the packs are different.

The game is mainly the same. However, there have been some minor changes to some of the wording in the game. Unfortunately, as the manufacturer used the same UPC the seller might have only had the older version as this version was released in mid 2013.
