Dominion Intrigue

You are a monarch, like your parents before you, a ruler of a small pleasant kingdom of rivers and evergreens. Unlike your parents, however, you have hopes and dreams! You want a bigger and more pleasant kingdom, with more rivers and a wider variety of trees. You want a Dominion! You will bring civilization to these people, uniting them under your banner. Dominion: Intrigue adds rules for playing with up to 8 players at two tables or for playing a single game with up to 6 players. This game adds 25 new Kingdom cards and a complete set of Treasure and Victory cards. The game can be played alone by players experienced in Dominion or with the basic game of Dominion.

Dominion Intrigue Reviews:

I was very surprised to find that I liked playing Dominion as much as I do. I am not a big card game kind of person.
Dominion is probably the best card game (but it doesn’t SEEM like a card game when you play it) that I have ever played. It has the feel more of a board game, but you aren’t moving pieces around a board.
Dominion intrigue has actually improved on this by introducing new cards that have the ability to be useful not only in the current round, but in the next round as well.
I bought this game for my daughter’s boyfriend who fell in love with Dominion the fist time he played it. Now with him having this newer version he can borrow my copy of Dominion and have even more choices in setting up games.
If you don’t own Dominion yet you can choose between Dominion Intrigue or the original Dominion. I would say the more you play the game the more you would want Dominion Intrigue. If you only play every now and then Dominion (orignial) would probably be a better choice.
Either way you can’t go wrong.
One word of caution however…. There is a new expansion out called Dominion Seaside. It is a great EXPANSION.. but not a standalone game. You NEED either Dominion or Dominion Intrigue to play Dominion Seaside. I have played Dominion Seaside expansion once and loved it. But remember you need Dominion or Dominion Intrigue to play Dominion Seaside.
