{"product_id":"dominion-seaside","title":"Dominion: Seaside","description":"\u003cp\u003eDominion Seaside is an expansion to the card management and deck-building game . PLEASE NOTE, this expansion cannot be played without the original game, or alongside the expansion, . The Dominion Seaside expansion sees the arrival of 26 new card sets, a selection of high quality metal tokens, and three kinds of player mat. Players of the base game will be familiar with the basic card mechanics which are still seen in this expansion; drawing cards, increasing the number of actions in a turn, and increasing the number of cards you can buy in a turn, all in the aim of getting victory points. In addition to this are several new mechanics, many based around the addition of duration cards - cards which have an effect for both your current and next turn. Duration effects aren't the only interesting addition to the rules however. Immediately noticeable when you open the box are the Island, Pirate Ship and Native Village play mats. The respective cards allow the players to use these play mats to store cards, build wealth, and bank some sweet victory points. All three are a lot of fun to use, and the new mechanics in the set overall are creative and a lot of fun. However, the most impressive part of Dominion Seaside is how the flavour and theme of the cards seemed to fit so perfectly with these new mechanics. Take the Pirate Ship for example; when you play it if any player has any treasure near the top of their deck, they trash it, and your player mat gains a coin, which later can be used as your own treasure. When you play the card it feels like your personal pirate ship is plundering your friends, looting their treasure and adding it to the ship's hold, making yourself permanently richer and your friends forever that much poorer. And that feels great. Each copy of Dominion and its expansions offer a number of recommended card sets to play with which are well balanced, and I would suggest trying these on your first few games before jumping in to the random selections.
