Buy Dominion - Menagerie PC

Players build dominion through an animals theme in this huge strategy expansion for PC. Exile cards to your personal mat for later use, keeping them yours until the end when scoring them alongside your deck. Horses boost deck drawing, while Ways offer alternate plays for Action cards, overriding their standard effects. Events return to the mix, joined by cards featuring variable costs marked with asterisks. This large set delivers 71 unique cards, including 30 Kingdom cards, 20 Ways, and 20 Events, with high complexity from Exile mechanics and special Reactions. Gain a card and optionally discard its duplicates from your mat to streamline your collection. Strategy fans who master intricate rules and animal-themed tweaks will find deep replayability here.

A huge expansion with an animals theme. Players can save cards for later on the Exile mat. Horses help you draw your deck; Ways let you play Action cards to do something other than what they say. Events return, and there's a mini-theme of cards with variable costs.


Menagerie has Exile mats that cards can be placed on. Each player gets one. To "exile" a card is to put it on your exile mat. Cards on your Exile mat are "in Exile."Cards on your Exile mat are yours; at the end of the game, include them when scoring. When you gain a card, you may discard the other copies of it from your mat.


Menagerie has Ways. Each Way gives Action cards an additional option: you can play the Action normally, or play it to do what the Way says to do. Playing an Action card with a Way means not doing anything the Action card said to do when played. Ways are not Kingdom cards, and cannot be bought; they sit on the table modifying the game rules.


Some cards in Menagerie have costs marked with a *. Some *s indicate variable prices. The card will explain when and how it changes.

Flavor

Dominion, that’s what you’re trying to achieve. This time with animals! They each have a lesson to teach, whether it’s how to spit really far, or what kind of grass tastes the best. It’s a lot to keep track of, but you’re like an elephant: you remember everything. And you’re afraid of mice. You’ve taken up riding. Horses are intimidating; they say you can lead a horse to water, but you haven’t managed it. So you’re working your way up, starting with dogs. So far so good; the dog hasn’t bucked you off yet.

Your menagerie got off to a poor start, with just a goat, two rats, and the adviser who suggested starting a menagerie. You couldn’t get that fox you wanted, but it was probably bad anyway. Now you’ve got some camels, which are just as useless for sewing as you’d been warned, and a turtle that can hold its breath for longer than anyone can stay interested. Soon the animal kingdom will be yours.
