You have been crowned king of a beautiful little country of rolling hills, winding rivers and fertile farmlands. Life could be so beautiful, but unfortunately there are disputes with surrounding states. Various princes try to expand their kingdom at the expense of each other! Only one will win... In Dominion you try to form the strongest possible deck during the game, so that you have the most points at the end of the game. The cards in your deck always rotate from your draw pile to your hand, after which they go to your discard pile. When your draw pile is empty, shuffle your discard pile so that you have a new draw pile. Each turn you may perform 1 action and make 1 purchase. Every turn you buy additional cards, so you can achieve your goal in your own way. Do you go for a constructive method with the Forge, the Village and the Market, or do you try a more aggressive way with the Witch or the Militia? Because only 10 of the 26 kingdom cards are used in each game, Dominion is different every time. The Games Friends: “ If we could only take a few games to a desert island, Dominion would probably be one of them. Due to the enormous number of expansions you can keep rotating and have a different game every time. Highly, HIGHLY recommended!"

Taverns of the Old Town is a deckbuilding game about competing taverns, where drinking brothers and noblemen drink their beers and drinks. The players are valuable in their own establishment and try to make their pub the best in the old city through the right investments. As an innkeeper, you attract new customers and occasionally a nobleman, who promotes fame. You will also have to invest in tables, recruit staff and find suppliers of the golden liquid. Each round, players roll and choose dice and pass them to their neighbor. The dice determine which beers you tap and pour. Do you serve your regulars at the bar again or do you choose that rich stinker in the corner? The Games Friends: “ The Taverns of the Old Town fit together very well and have an extremely high replayability due to the four different modules. But the real power of this game lies in the theme, which is very original and perfectly implemented in the available actions. A winner!"
