@@camillelambert5474 Dominion is very much a deep game. Games have come over time to "replace" it like ascension and so on. But it is one of the simpler deck builder games that are good. The game has a surprising amount of depth and you will keep finding new stuff. As PROZD says it has no theme but its quite indepth but simple at the same time.
@@camillelambert5474 honestly, it still holds up incredibly well and serves as a good intro to the genre. There's a ton of expansions that add new mechanics and playstyles. If you don't care for the theme or want something different then sure, (Ascension is very different from Dominion, but I prefer Dominion myself). If you're complete weeb garbage, I'd reccomend tanto cuore (though I still think Dominion is a better game)
Dominion is my shit. I used to play every day online, back when the free site was still up (with no pictures!). And I have most of the physical sets, all in a big custom case. The expansions really make the game. It's kinda like Magic, in that it was the granddaddy of its genre, and has grown even better over the years via constant updates. I teach new players all the time, but this game is not easy on the newcomers. I usually have to try oddball strategies for them to have any chance of winning. Thankfully I've gotten good at easing people into the more advanced tactics, like when to "green", and whether an engine deck is even optimal on a given board. It's always fun showing people "big money" or aggressive trashing for the first time. This game is a great example of "easy to learn, hard to master." If you're looking at expansions, I HIGHLY recommend Prosperity, followed by Intrigue (2nd Edition), and finally Seaside. Complex sets like Adventures, Empires, and Dark Ages are more polarizing, but I personally enjoy them. The other sets are just alright. Except Alchemy. Alchemy is hot garbage.
Prosperity and Intrigue are reaaaally hard for me to get a definitive recommendation over the other, just because both are very good sets. I'd recommend for newcomers who are figuring out their first expansion to also figure out what cards and playstyles they like, and if they want more of that. While they both cater to all playstyles to an extent, Intrigue tends to have more of a focus on combos, attacks, and versatile cards, Prosperity has a heavier focus on engines and big money.
@@boopyy Alchemy has the potion mechanic. You can buy a potion for 4 coins which can then be used to buy other cards that have the potion as a cost. Where this gets awkward is these cards often cost coin as well, so frequently you will draw your potion with not enough coin and not be able to use it (or with a lot of coin and be forced to make an awkward choice). Draw luck is a factor of the game but it's crushing in Alchemy, one player is often left fumbling while another cruises ahead and in some cases can lock them out of the game.
Thank you for explaining the game succinctly at the beginning! I always have to explain the game to the newcomers. Now all I need is for somebody to help me set up and clean up...
This is one of the few games where I think getting an expansion or two is a better deal than just adding another game to your collection. The expansions add so much customisability and replay-ability to this game. They work flawlessly with all of the established rulesets and add so much to the experience. Plus, due to the nature of Dominion, you can easily scale "how much" of an expansion you want to play just by choosing to use more or less of the expansion cards with the base game cards.
Same. I remember recommending it on his first boardgame video, when he asked for suggestions. So glad he got a copy. My favourite expansion is Intrigue.

Just a strategical tip with the Cellar card. In rough, general terms, an important strategy to playing Cellar is to fill up your hand with as many useless/bad cards as possible before playing Cellar. This way there are more cards in your hand that you're willing to discard, therefore Cellar gives you more draw. Therefore, in your example at 3:00, it would be better to play Market first, as you would have drawn into one of your Estates, then play Cellar to discard it along with however many Coppers that you're willing to riskily give away, essentially giving you an extra draw (I say 'riskily' because the cards you draw may or may not be as useful as the Copper cards, such as Victory Cards, which is why it can be important to try and keep track of what's still in your draw pile, although this is quite advanced). The order in which you play your cards in your Action Phase can make all the difference. Another benefit of digging into your draw pile for bad cards like this is that it eliminates those cards from being dead draws for you next turn. And even if the card you draw into is a good card, like another Action Card, it doesn't matter because both Market and Cellar give you more Actions so you can still potentially play it if you want to. Obviously, you generally run a risk by digging into your deck like this with a card that DOESN'T give you more Actions, like Smithy. However with cards that DO give you more Actions, there's generally no risk at all.
Something that I want to expand upon, since he only briefly touched up on it at the end; At time of writing, this game has *fifteen* expansion packs. Most of them are excellent, and are all self-contained, meaning they're each non-reliant on having anything other than the base game. Most of them introduce a mechanic (Seaside with Duration cards, Dark ages with Ruins, Nocturne with Night cards, Adventures with Tavern cards), and reiterate and improve on previous ones (Intrigue with attack and secondary effects, Dark Ages with trashing, Hinterlands with....everything pre-dark ages). If you like the base game, get a couple with mechanics that seem interesting to you!
Also, a good first expansion to get is prosperity. It’s not too confusing but it’s adds a lot to the game. All of the other expansions are like mini versions of original dominion, but prosperity is more of building on to the original game. Prosperity adds platinum, which is a higher treasure than gold, colony, which is a higher victory card than provinces, and a lot of treasure cards that have a lot of abilities you’d expect from an action card. Overall, a simple but fun expansion
It's not uncommon for me to draw and play my entire deck in the late game to buy 2 provinces. I love Dominion. Dark Ages is my favorite expansion so far, but I haven't played them all yet.
Dominion is also a good test to see what kind of board gamer people are. You'll know who looks up strategies ahead of time when they pull out Big Money.
BTW for those who don't know, this is the 2nd edition of the game which has different artwork and a few different cards than the 1st edition. There was a pack that included the new cards for 1st edition owners, but I believe it's out of print now.
OH GOD DOMINION IS SO MUCH FUN. I remember at college a friend had tons of expansions. I would always just build my deck in a way so I could try to draw my entire deck every turn. Did I win? Not often. Did I draw cards? You fucking betcha.
Yeah, I love Dominion. My friends and I STILL play it to this day. I REALLY feel lucky I snagged the workshop version on Tabletop Simulator before it got taken down. :P I don't feel like a monarch expanding my kingdom though. I feel like some kind of rascal going "I have a handful of coins and a lot of ambition. How do I scheme, bribe and bamboozle my way into grabbing all the resources before my opponents do?" XD
My brother brought this game home for new years it’s been 3 days and 22 hours of playtime and expansions being shipped to us honestly underrated game should be on the level of monopoly for popularity it deserves
If you like Dominion, I would be interested to see what you think of Ascension. Assuming you don't bounce off the art/aesthetic of Ascension, it does a lot of things right following on from Dominion's footsteps. You can play as many actions as you have in your hand, all of the cards have victory points attached to them (so you don't have "dead" cards like the Estates/etc), you can more easily adjust the game length, you can buy/defeat as many cards as you can afford, and the common pool is changing and dynamic.
Oh man I used to play this in Chess Club in high school. We got bored of playing chess and the teacher had Dominion in his shelf alongside some ~3 feet of literally only cards from expansion packs. Shit's fun yo.
I loved this game when I played it. I played it like you might play a Blue/White deck in Magic, with lots of screwery focused less on a clear victory objective and more sabotaging everyone else, like filling everyone's deck (except mine) with Curse cards.
I've probably played Dominion more than any other game, especially since they released an online client that I use to play with friends from college. I think the 2nd edition of the base game (shown here), but the real magic comes with the expansions. While there's a ton of them, I'd say Dark Ages and Adventures are among my favorites (the first for the variety of trashing effects, one of the most powerful effects in the game, and the second for having interesting card interactions). As for my favorite deckbuilder overall (no expansions required), I'd probably say Puzzle Strike. That game has probably the coolest win state of any game I've played, and has a good amount of depth. That said, it does have a little bit more of a learning curve, and some people find the use of "chips" (basically cardboard poker chips) instead of cards a bit fiddly. A... surprisingly solid deckbuilder is Barbarossa. That one actually has really solid mechanics in building up an army and attacking cities. It is also a game where you play as sexy anime Nazis invading Russia. So... not the most PC game, but if you can embrace the absurdity of the premise then it can be a lot of fun.
my favorite deck builder game type game is Machi Koro. I highly recommend it, its almost like monopoly but fairly different. Another game you might like is Last Night on Earth, it like a zombie rpg almost where someone controls the zombies and everyone else controls a hero. I find both highly enjoyable and would suggest them in a heartbeat.
hey, could you check out Millennium Blades? It's kinda like a deckbuilder. Basically, you play as a player of a fictional TCG, and (within the game) you buy boosters, build collections, buy, sell, and trade cards, and try to build a deck that can win tournaments. there's tons of content and variants. it's one of my favorite games.
In other news CHIHAYAFURU is getting a 3RD SEASON SENPAI! You were the first person to introduce me to the series and I couldn't have been more grateful.
you MUST try Dungeons & Dragons: Dungeon Mayhem if you haven't already! It's a nice short game for whenever some pen & paper mate arrives late (so every pnp session)

Dominion is my favorite tabletop game of all time. I've played with all the expansions. Aaggghhhh, such a good game. (I'm writing this before watching the whole video and won't update it after watching)
@@ShineHatfield the only one that seemer a bit off to me and nit as good as the others was the alchemy one. The problem is when you have to many cards and expansions to choose from:/
Looks awesome!!! Thanks for the video! Where did you get the game?? I for sure want to play it!! I'll post it with my friends on my channel after work :) Thanks a lot!!
I want a really complicated card game, I think I might try magic the gathering, but I genuinely want to play a game like sungwons complicated card game skits.
It's the catan of deck building games. somewhat bland and basic without much immersion but super strong gameplay that makes it approachable but also very re playable
@Artemiy Solopov: Technically, yes, but in my experience, you generally don't need more Copper than the seven you start with. They get in the way of your better Treasure cards like Silvers and Golds. Buying lots of Silver and Gold early, then buying a good trasher (like Chapel from basic, or Doctor from Guilds) to get rid of your Coppers is generally the way to go so you can draw your good Treasures. I prefer Big Money strategies, if you can't tell.
Those looking at expansions, you don't (mostly) need to buy them in any real order, so long as you have the base set or intrigue's first edition, so here are my recommendations: -*Prosperity* is my favorite. It extends the game's length by adding bigger and stronger cards, which are desirable enough to sometimes actually sell out, without being too strong. -*Alchemy* is criminally underrated. The potion mechanic adds money cards to your hand that are only useful in really specific conditions, but the small size of this set limits the number of cards you can actually use it on. One of the only sets where I've seen decks get made that play every single card they have almost every turn. -*Base set.* Not sure why I put it on the list, but it's third place. -*Hinterlands* is really weird. A few cards are way too strong, (Crossroads, Haggler,) but overall, a really solid and enjoyable set, that creates some bizarre games, while still being the easiest in the series to follow, adding no real new mechanics. -*Seaside* is more on the confusing side when it comes to sets, but the duration cards add a really neat amount of depth to the game, and much of the time the confusing cards are that way because someone had something cool in mind, not just to annoy you. Roughly as good as Hinterlands. -*Intrigue* is just like the base set but more geared towards shorter turns and attacking other players, while less so towards impressive turns and varied strategies. A very good set, but not a personal favorite. -*Empires* has some interesting mechanics, but is also where the power creep becomes a real problem. Debt is an awesome balancing measure, and the cards here are really interesting, not to mention landmarks being a cool mechanic, but the event cards are not that cool, and it's just not that fun to have one expansion dominate the game by having objectively stronger cards. -*Dark Ages* has a lot of cool ideas, which are not actually all that fun to play. By no means an awful expansion, but just never quite exciting enough to play. Roughly as good as Empires. -*Adventures* is a real mess. The power creep is staggering, and I often play as though the cards from it cost Alchemy's potions in addition to their base cost just to be able to use even the weakest ones, not to mention it's home to some of the most confusing cards in the series. Hireling in particular cannot exist without completely ending the game the instant a player reaches 6 coins on a turn, and even that's before getting into the gross, gross, reserve cards. Not a fan. I have not tried Cornucopia, Nocturne, Guilds, Renaissance, or the second editions of the original and Intrigue, but Nocturne seems fascinating. Also, Black Market, a card which is sold on its own, is not fun enough to make up for the 10 years of cleanup it adds when you're done playing.
Dominion is actually still my most played board games of all time... and that says a lot since I own over 200 games.

great vid! looking forward to buy this game :D
Such a good game.
It's the catan of deck building games. somewhat bland and basic without much immersion but super strong gameplay that makes it approachable but also very re playable
Question: when you said you had +1 Buy but no treasure cards to spend, couldn't you have picked a Copper card for 0? Or am I missing something here?
@Artemiy Solopov: Technically, yes, but in my experience, you generally don't need more Copper than the seven you start with. They get in the way of your better Treasure cards like Silvers and Golds. Buying lots of Silver and Gold early, then buying a good trasher (like Chapel from basic, or Doctor from Guilds) to get rid of your Coppers is generally the way to go so you can draw your good Treasures. I prefer Big Money strategies, if you can't tell.
Those looking at expansions, you don't (mostly) need to buy them in any real order, so long as you have the base set or intrigue's first edition, so here are my recommendations:
-*Prosperity* is my favorite. It extends the game's length by adding bigger and stronger cards, which are desirable enough to sometimes actually sell out, without being too strong.
-*Alchemy* is criminally underrated. The potion mechanic adds money cards to your hand that are only useful in really specific conditions, but the small size of this set limits the number of cards you can actually use it on. One of the only sets where I've seen decks get made that play every single card they have almost every turn.
-*Base set.* Not sure why I put it on the list, but it's third place.
-*Hinterlands* is really weird. A few cards are way too strong, (Crossroads, Haggler,) but overall, a really solid and enjoyable set, that creates some bizarre games, while still being the easiest in the series to follow, adding no real new mechanics.
-*Seaside* is more on the confusing side when it comes to sets, but the duration cards add a really neat amount of depth to the game, and much of the time the confusing cards are that way because someone had something cool in mind, not just to annoy you. Roughly as good as Hinterlands.
-*Intrigue* is just like the base set but more geared towards shorter turns and attacking other players, while less so towards impressive turns and varied strategies. A very good set, but not a personal favorite.
-*Empires* has some interesting mechanics, but is also where the power creep becomes a real problem. Debt is an awesome balancing measure, and the cards here are really interesting, not to mention landmarks being a cool mechanic, but the event cards are not that cool, and it's just not that fun to have one expansion dominate the game by having objectively stronger cards.
-*Dark Ages* has a lot of cool ideas, which are not actually all that fun to play. By no means an awful expansion, but just never quite exciting enough to play. Roughly as good as Empires.
-*Adventures* is a real mess. The power creep is staggering, and I often play as though the cards from it cost Alchemy's potions in addition to their base cost just to be able to use even the weakest ones, not to mention it's home to some of the most confusing cards in the series. Hireling in particular cannot exist without completely ending the game the instant a player reaches 6 coins on a turn, and even that's before getting into the gross, gross, reserve cards. Not a fan.
I have not tried Cornucopia, Nocturne, Guilds, Renaissance, or the second editions of the original and Intrigue, but Nocturne seems fascinating.
Also, Black Market, a card which is sold on its own, is not fun enough to make up for the 10 years of cleanup it adds when you're done playing.
Can you maybe talk about Gloomhaven? Maybe???
Dominion is fucking niiiiiiiiice
I stongly suggest a simple board game I enjoyed called "Quarto". It's really clever I Iove it, plz make a video of it.
