Dominion Prosperity

Got this as the first expansion to the base game, as I'd read that it was perhaps the most well recieved of the many existing.My friends and I have since both agreed that it's added a huge amount to the game- the cards are weighted towards 'Big Money' strategies, which we all found are the most fun to play. The cards are varied yet familiar enough that they're easy to integrate into the game.By virtue of this, games using this expansion are still very easy to pick up. I've introduced brand new players to Dominion using this expansion, and it's been picked up just as fast as the base game (it is an expansion though, so you still either need the base set or the basic cards to play). Some cards are stronger than others, but they are generally well balanced, and after a game or two it's easy to gain an idea of how to balance these out with canny set selection.The quality of the cards and their flavour and artwork is just as high as ever, too. A very good buy.

Say farewell to your penniless days hoarding copper, and your supposed 'big money' games where you throw around "precious" gold. This expansion ups the stakes by adding new coins and victory cards, as well as a host of new high-cost actions to spend your newfound wealth on. We normally end up using a couple of the cards from this expansion in most games, though it's maybe not the best expansion to get first if you've not tried seaside or intrigue.

Prosperity is fun right out of the box. I think the reason is that many of the cards increase your purchasing power and compliment the basic dominion strategy known as "Big Money". A great many of the cards help you with coins, building you up quickly towards Provinces or Colonies and games are pretty friction-less.Having bought Intrigue, Seaside and Prosperity expansions all in one go, Prosperity is the easiest to play and the one I've had the most fun with. This would be my recommendation for a first expansion to base Dominion.

Interesting kingdom cards to add to Dominion, and the victory point counters add a different dimension to the game

A good addition to the collection of Dominion games, but on the pricey side.

More than matched our expectations - the Platina (and who knew that's the plural of platinum?) and Colonies can be used with any other Dominion set to make a longer game but there's a lot of other great money-oriented cards here too....along with Dark Ages this is our favourite expansion...so far

A great expansion to the game. The tokens and coins are very nice and hefty and the cards are indeed updated to match the 2nd edition of the base set.

Bought this expansion to Dominion, adding dozens of excellent new cards to our game. Its very well thought out and we are certainly happy with the purchase. We especially like the new platinum treasure card, players can become very rich when this is in play, but not if there's a thief about...
