UPDATE (Dec. 18, 2015):

The product has two decks of card exactly the same and missing a whole bunch of others. Had to return it.

Arrived in great condition far ahead of schedule.

Bought for Christmas. A+ from my son.

Great Game - adds welcome complexity to an underlying awesome system.

This, along with Renaissance, are my two favorite dominion expansions(and I own all of them). A big part of why I personally love this set so much is the wide variety of interesting mechanics, but I can see why that might make it less appealing to others, who maybe find everything a bit too much to take in. I personally had no problems learning it, but I gave it four stars, because my love of such things makes it much easier for me to learn, than the average person, who doesnt necessarily *want* to immediately be an expert in the set.

This expansion is amazing! A must have for any Dominion fan. Tons of new mechanics, including event cards (awesome!), upgradeable cards (peasant and page), all kinds of tokens (+1 and -1 to card, action, buy, or coin), treasure ATTACK cards, reserve cards, and much more. Also notable is the return of durations (with some being just a tad OP...but Im not complaining!).

My wife and I have enjoyed playing this game now for a few years. This is an expansion deck to the other sets and you will need a set that has all the components (gold, silver, copper etc) to run a full game. We enjoyed this add on better than others in the past. It allows us to add new life to a game that while still fun enables more opportunities. If you have never played this game before and are looking for a new way for your family to interact this is perfect. The set up is quick, learning the game play takes no time and you get to decide the cards you will use in the game allowing you custom a game to a certain style. In fact I think the longest part of playing the game is deciding which cards to use because once you start the game flows smoothly and quick with easy directions on each card. I would definitely recommend this to any family looking for a fun game night that also stimulates the creativity that other games lack.

A top three Dominion set, up there with Prosperity and Cornucopia. Physical construction is not up to snuff but the gameplay more than compensates.
