Dominion - Black Market

It's really hard to "recommend" this but only due to it's price, it's an otherwise fun addition to the game.

I think I read somewhere the developers said that it's high cost is because it was difficult for them to implement into the game. While I don't find it hard to believe this was difficult to implement into the game I don't understand why that means their customers should be punished financially to own said card.

With that said, it is a fun addition. I've only used Black Market twice (so forgive me if any of this is wrong) but the premise is this; you buy Black Market, play black market (it gives you +2) and you'll be offered 3 randomly picked cards to choose from. Provided you have enough money in hand (with the +2) you can then buy one of the 3 random cards offered. You then return to your original hand (ie, your hand as if you hadn't played Black Market). So in a sense it's also +1 action (kinda).


As I said it is a fun addition, I'm recommending this yes but on the condition it's bought discounted or during a sale. Otherwise it's a big thumbs down.

The only reason I bought it was to set as preference. You can't. Not only that, I have had promo for a month and it has never showed up.
