This animal-themed expansion blends the familiar core of Dominion with playful, table-tested twists that invite new planning and adaptation. The set comprises 400 cards in total, including 30 new Kingdom cards that broaden the choices you make each turn. As the 13th expansion, it continues the series’ tradition of expanding options without altering the base rules. Like every Dominion release, it requires the Basic cards and rulebook to play and can be mixed with other Dominion expansions you already own, letting your table grow at your own pace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnimal motifs subtly shift tempo and interaction at the table.

Together, these elements evoke both familiarity and curiosity, rewarding careful timing, flexible deck-building, and emerging card synergies as your menagerie evolves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features and What They Bring\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e400 total cards and 30 new Kingdom cards expand available strategies and combos.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAnimal mechanics introduce new timing decisions, including horses that save draws for later and other animal-themed effects.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExile mats and Ways offer new homes for cards and additional action choices within turns.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEvents return, providing occasional global effects that can shift the board's balance mid-game.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAnimal-themed cards can be combined with previous Dominion sets for varied play sessions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow Play Feels at the Table\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFor 2–4 players, ages 14+, with about 30 minutes of playtime.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFresh decision points encourage longer-term planning and adaptive tactics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDeck-building rhythm stays familiar, but new interactions reward experimentation and timing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt the table, the experience comes to life through tactile card shuffles, the soft clink of coins, and the vivid animal artwork that accompanies each choice.
