Dominion (dominion.games) - I must have played a thousand games since the first lockdown.


Yet another expansion is coming out. It's like, what, the fifth after what Donald X said would be the last one? Can't deny that I'm happy about it, though. It remains an extremely well-designed game.

Ancestor of the entire "build your deck during the game" genre, and for every new entry in that genre I've tried, I've thought, "yup, now I know there's a good reason Donald X. Vaccarino didn't do it like that in Dominion".

Works equally great as an over the board family game with more than 2 players as a highly competitive online 2 player game, too. That's pretty amazing, really.


You can play the expansion now! It's available for a few days in preview mode, named Plunder. Very money focused, with a 'loot' pile that's essentially 30 golds with actions like Discard down to 4, play an Action from your hand, etc! Very good fun.


dominion.games is great.

Also competitive Settlers of Catan has skyrocketed in 2022: https://colonist.io to play for free against friends or ranked.


Thanks for the heads up about that site!
