Winner of the Spiel der Jahres in 2008 and many other awards, Dominion has established itself as a true classic.  With more than a dozen expansions currently available, players will always be able to find new challenges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf you have never played Dominion before, start here with the basic game.  There are millions of different combinations that can be played just with Dominion alone.  Each game is different but only lasts 20-30 minutes.  Great for two players but just as fun with more players.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eGAME COMPONENTS\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a game of building a deck of cards. The deck contains your resources, victory points, and the things you can do. It starts out a small sad collection of Estates and Coppers, but you hope that by the end of the game it will be brimming with Gold, Provinces, and the inhabitants and structures of your kingdom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch4\u003eGAME IDEA\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou 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¦ dreams! You want a bigger kingdom, more pleasant, with more rivers, and a wider variety of trees. You want a Dominion!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn all directions lie fiefs, freeholds, and feodums. All are small bits of land, controlled by petty lords and verging on anarchy. You will bring civilization to these people, uniting them under your banner. But wait! It must be something in the air; several other monarchs have had the exact same idea. You must race to get as much of the unclaimed land as possible, fending them off along the way. To do this you will hire minions, construct buildings, spruce up your castle, and fill the coffers of your treasury. Your parents wouldn't be proud, but your grandparents, on your mother's side, would be delighted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5jNGpgdMums\" width=\"400\" height=\"225\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rio Grande Games","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42468535042166,"sku":"210000009581","price":56.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0650\/0984\/4342\/files\/nyc8tkudwmfndmravljb.jpg?v=1755151951"},{"product_id":"dominion-rising-sun","title":"Dominion: Rising Sun","description":"\u003cp\u003eAcross the sea, they have so much stuff.

You want an easy life, and you˜re prepared to work hard for it. So you˜ve rounded up some old salty dogs, plus a sourpuss and a bitter goldfish. And set sail. The sea is a harsh mistress, but a good cook, at least if you like everything really salty.

This entitles you to a better chair, plus you can name a salad after yourself.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIt's not easy being emperor. The day starts early, when you light the sacred flame; then it's hours of committee meetings, trying to establish exactly why the sacred flame keeps going out. Sometimes your armies take over a continent and you just have no idea where to put it. And there's the risk of assassination; you have a food taster, who tastes anything before you eat it, and a dagger tester, who gets stabbed by anything before it stabs you. You've taken to staying at home whenever it's the Ides of anything. Still, overall it's a great job. You wouldn't trade it for the world - especially given how much of the world you already have.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDominion: Empires, the tenth addition to the game of Dominion, contains 96 metal tokens and 300 cards, with cards you can buy now and pay for later, piles with two different cards, and Landmarks that add new ways to score.

It's time to seek your fortune, or anyone's really, whoever's is closest. To the west there's a land of milk and honey, full of giant bees and monstrous cows. To the east, a land of eggs and licorice. To the north, treacherous swamps; to the south, loyal jungles.

There are a lot of advantages: you don't age; you don't have to see yourself in mirrors anymore; if someone asks you to do something, you can just turn into a bat, and then say, sorry, I'm a bat. There are probably some downsides though. You always think of the statue in the town square that came to life and now works as the tavern barmaid. The pedestal came to life too, so she has to hop around. The village blacksmith turns into a wolf whenever there's a full moon; when there's a crescent moon, he turns into a chihuahua. That's how this stuff goes sometimes.
