About this game

The game that invented deck-building. Buy cards, build your deck, use it to buy better cards, repeat — except the genius is in the combinations between the ten Kingdom cards chosen for each game. Dominion is fast, endlessly replayable, and still one of the best multiplayer games ever designed.
