Dixit Journey Board Game Expansion - Explore Imaginary Worlds with 84 New Cards! Creative Storytelling Game, Fun Family Game for Kids & Adults, Ages 8+, 3-6 Players, 30 Min Playtime, Made by Libellud

I'm a bit of a board game nerd, and Dixit is my absolute favorite of the games I own. It's very accessible to all ages; I frequently play it with the rest of my family, ranging in age from 6 to 40's, and everyone enjoys it. The gameplay is easy and quick to pick up (similar to Apples to Apples, if you're familiar with that, though I feel Dixit is superior) and the adults appreciate the art even more than the kids.The gameplay is very well balanced; there's no easy exploits or trick strategies. The scoring is designed to encourage exactly the sort of gameplay that the rules and descriptions suggest, which is a major point in its favor (I hate it when games advertise themselves as one thing, but the actual best strategy is completely different). The game length also feels just right; it doesn't feel like it ends just when you're getting momentum up, or like it stretches on forever.Now, I will say, I don't find the art in this game to be quite as high-quality as that in the original Dixit. So if you're choosing between them, I would buy the original, and then if you find you like it, buy this later as an expansion pack. The original pictures are more complex and bizarre, which makes telling stories about them more interesting; some of these are a bit too obvious and simple. But the art is still charming and quite attractive, so don't let that turn you off. It's a subtle enough difference to be a matter of taste.Physically, this is one of the best-quality games I own. The box is sturdy enough to stand up to quite a bit of abuse, and the pieces are wood tokens, not plastic. The board hasn't sustained any damage (by contrast, our Monopoly board broke years ago) and even the cards have a very pleasant matte feel. (They're quite a bit larger than standard playing cards, which accommodates the impressive detail on the pictures.) The good quality of the materials is nice for adults, and stands up to the battering of children.A problem with a lot of similar games is that they get "played out;" for instance, in "Would You Rather," once you've played it a certain number of times, you know what everyone in your group "would rather." The complexity of the art here prevents that; I've never had any trouble coming up with a new and different story for the same card. Apples to Apples has similar gameplay, but I like that this is less subjective. Balderdash is even more similar, but without the gorgeous art and creative element of telling stories about the cards. I would without hesitation recommend this over either of those games, although I like both.In sum, I would strongly recommend this game, whether to adults, children, or a mixed group. I think it's also worth picking up the different versions eventually for the extra cards, though certainly not necessary.

Dixit is one of those games that can be played with just about everyone. I’ve even played with my 7 year old nephew and he did great. It’s great for big groups too. We play this game so much that I though it might be time for an expansion to my deck and this deck does not disappoint. Beautiful artwork and such a playful style. It compliments my base game very well and everyone was excited to see the new cards.

This is a nice addition to the Dixit universe. The art is a little darker than other sets, but at the same time so beautiful. I have a hard time picking favorites here, so I'll just say I love them all. The great thing with this edition is that it come with a large box, game board, and player pieces. So, it will work all on its own. I was really happy because it let me replace my fraying game board from the original set and I'll keep the box around for if the original ever breaks down. The insert in this box is only large enough to fit one deck of cards, which is silly since it's the same size as the original which fits four decks, so don't buy this with an expansion expecting both to fit in this one box. The player pawns are cheap plastic instead of the awesome wooden bunnies found in the original.Pros:Great artwork!Game boardBig boxCons:Cheap plastic pawnsOnly room for one deck in the boxI still give this five stars because it often costs the same as the other expansions and it comes with little more than they do. I'd still buy the original Dixit as my starter set any day. If I'd bought this as a stand-alone game I'd probably give it four stars.

This is the BEST game for teenagers to adults! I can not tell you how much fun we have playing this game with family and friends. This game has an apples to apples feel, but is way better. The pictures on the cards are very fun and interesting and this gives the game the unique game play and ability to have one card have multiple meanings. I am trying to be honest with my review without giving the game away. But here's the deal if you are a creative person and can come up with "good" phrases and words, you and you friends will have a very fun time, but if you are very this is what it is type person, you may be bored by the game and not have as much fun. I also encourage you to buy the expansion pack (or packs as there are more than one). The included cards are good but the greater the selection of cards the more fun and the less likely you are to feel that you play the same cards all the time. Lastly, the scoring seems tricky, but all you have to do is read the game board and it spells it out, don't think too much about what you think it says, just follow what the board says and you will be right. Enjoy.

I love this game. It's so much fun and so unusual. This is a very social game. You make up stories that go with the cards. Your goal is to trick people- but get at least one person to guess correctly. So for example, if you have a card with a bottle of wine on it- you want to make up a story that won't let EVERYONE guess that card is yours, but you want at least one person to guess it is, or you won't get any points (and everyone else will get points). So you might say- remember what we did in Berkeley last August? And if one person was with you- they'd "get" it, and you'd get points. You also get points for putting down cards that match the "story" of the person whose turn it is, and thus trick people in to choosing the wrong card. I hope I made this understandable- because it's a blast. We had so much fun playing this with friends I went right out and ordered 3 editions from Amazon so I could play with my family. We love it!!!

Every time you observe a card, it will reveal a different "topic". They always surprise you. Way better than the basic set.

gioco che non dovrebbe mancare, da il suo massimo se si gioca almeno in quattro persone meglio +

Unfortunately when I received this product the box was squashed and not in good condition.

Cette version du jeu est pas mal, on trouve le plateau de jeu plus simple, plus pratique et il prend moins de place que celui de la version originale.Quant aux illustrations, elles sont très belles aussi mais pas besoin de les comparer aux cartes des autres versions, elles sont complémentaires.De bons moments de jeux en perspective en famille, entre amis... (notre fille de 6 ans aime beaucoup, nous conseillons le jeu pour les enfants aussi, même si on joue un peu différemment avec les enfants, c'est un excellent moyen de réflexion, il permet de développer le vocabulaire, la mémoire, la patience...)

This game has become the family favourite now and I have already order several of the expansions. The game lets players be creative and imaginative in a really fun quick and easy to learn way that has you playing for hours.
