Dixit 2 is the expansion kit for the 2010 Spiel des Jahres winning game Dixit. We have several previous winning games (Ticket to Ride, Settlers of Catan, Carcasonne, Zooloretto etc) and they are all family favourites, continually providing an enjoyable playing experience over and over again. We couldn't wait to get our hands on this years winner, but being out of stock, we bought the expansion kit. This has 84 random cards you use as the basis for the storytelling. It does not have any scoring markers or voting cards, but I don't think we've missed out on any enjoyment. We simply use a paper and pencil for scoring, and vote using playing cards.(We've downloaded the rules from the Dixit website)The fun comes in the storytelling and trying to match cards to win more points. And what fun we've had. We all play (2 adults, 9 year old and 7 year old) and get equal enjoyment out of it. My wife and I were amazed the first few times we played it at how lateral and metaphorical our kids could be.The basic game is that you each have 6 cards with random pictures. One player, the storyteller, uses a phrase to "describe" one of his / her cards, and places this face down. All other players then choose a card in their hand that could also be described by that phrase, and pass the hand to the storyteller, who shuffles the cards and places them face up for all to see. Each player (except the storyteller) then votes, secretly so as not to influence others, for the card they think is the one. Scoring depends on whether everyone picks the storyteller's card or not, and who votes for different cards.The game is fast moving enough to not get boring, and takes about 20 - 30 minutes to play. The only drawback seems to be that scoring is fairly linear, so if someone pulls out a large lead early on, it is difficult to catch up. Many other Spiel des Jahres winners have a scoring mechanism where significant points are earned at the end of the game that can overturn apparently unassailable leads.Overall, I'd highly recommend this game. We've enjoyed playing with as just adults, as a family, across three generations, and each time everyone has enjoyed it, and wanted to play again.

I became a fan of this whole Dixit universe mainly due to the beautifulness of the pictures on the cards. The game itself isnt anything too special, but the sole images and amount of details on them - even the boxs, I might add - look overwhelming.For this reason, I decided to get closer to it and got all 3 sets of the game (Dixit, Dixit 2 and Odyssey), and just before opening my package I was extremely excited.However, something in particular immediatly got my attention. I got very curious when I didnt see "Dixit 2" as a small box containing the 84 cards - that I was expecting to find -, and saw in its place one major 17,5cm x 19,5cm x 12,5cm box. Upon opening this box,I noticed that inside of it there were not 1, but 12 smaller boxes, each of them containing the expected pack of 84 cards, that would make the Dixit 2 installment. Thats 12 times the same 84 cards, for a total of 1008 cards (repeated, but still) and for the price of just one.Now I can marvel enough at the amazingness of these games, since I wont be running short on cards anytime soon LOL.Not that Im complaining or anything, but thats obviously a minus to the seller.As for the item itself, "Thank you very much" to whoever gave it to the world.

We played the Dixit game with friends and really fell in love with it.Consequently we bought the game for ourselves and had hours and hours of joy playing it with different people.They all loved it ,too and bought us an extension card set for us,too. We have now bought the Original game and an extension set for friends because we are moving away,and they loved playing it so much ! It is one of these games where it doesn't matter if one wins- it's mostly about the fun playing it.It is played in the round,so everybody picks a card and tells a clue about it..then the Others try and find a card on their hand to match the clue and pass it on to the One whose turn it is.Then all the cards are laid out in the middle and the players guess which was the original card...The game challenges your fantasy, it brings you lots of fun,and the time passes far too quickly while you are having fun with your friends or family.We can both highly highly recommend it ! The delivery was very very quick,too.

I own loads of classical board games of all times but this game is my strong NO. 1 !!!I recommend this game to loads of my friends already. Once they try it - they fell in love with it too!- It’s great for everyone (age 5+ onwards)- it’s not competitive (unless you make it to be)- gets you talking- fun of guessing how others see things- extremely creative- you can play it all over! It’s a different experience depending who you play it with- contains beautiful pictures to analyseI already bought two expansions packs but would love to get the whole set. Perfect for presents!

Great, fantastic, get it you will love it! I bought this game for my son for Christmas as he had requested. It is such a fantastic game that can be played by any age really. Simple to play but with loads of entertainment value. We have played it loads of times with our teenagers and other family members and friends. We have now bought the extra set of cards as we did start to get a few repititions. However, you will find that even if several people get the same card, the game is never the same. Buy it now, for hours of fun entertainment

This game is amazing but I am disappointed by the description. It does not really says that it is an expansion and that you need the Dixit to play it. In the Dixit 3 it says it clearly."Requires the basic game of Dixit to play."Why not to reproduce the same sentence here?Fortunately I have played the game before and I have improvised the numbers to play it but I think that the seller should be more clear about it and clearly call it "expansion" as any other game does.

This game is amazing. I bought it because some friends recommendation. I first played with my friends, and altough we were just three people and we had other cardgames, they always wanted to play to that one. They never got bored,and always came up with new ideas. They just wanted to play over and over again. After that, the fun increased as more people wanted to have a go. It was and it is worth it!!!

I ordered these extension cards despite having read other reviews that say some are repeats of the cards included in the original Dixit game.I'm pleased to say that NONE of them are repeats, but are in a similar style to the original colourful and intriguing illustrations. It's great to have some new material/inspiration for this excellent game!

A different game, any age can play, a little bit of knowing of who you are sitting down at the table with will help, as the desciption you give can not be to obvious, but someone needs to know what you are trying to communicate. You learn a bit too about people and the way they think. Even my wife enjoys it and she not mad on board games.

This was bought for friends for Christmas but ended up playing with them and really enjoyed what is quite a weird game. Strange pictures and quite expensive for what it is but a lot of fun. hard to explain concept even though it's relatively simple. Takes's some thinking about but really warmed to it after a while. Interesting.

Beautiful like all Dixit decks, even MORE pretty even. So special with the golden things. It doesn't mix-and-match sooo well with others because of the color palette maybe? Also the cards are more sober, and we've found we can play around less with meanings. But since I have all Dixit decks, this one is also wonderful.

Lovely new cards to add to Dixit, or use as a standalone game if you write your own scores. We are big fans of Dixit, and have played it with everyone that has come round, and it is a big hit with everyone. The new cards are just as good. I recommend it, as it gives more variety when you play.

The art is incredible, and anyone I've played it with has paused on multiple occasions to compliment the art of a card in their hand or in play. This fixes my main issue with Odyssey having too bland of an art style for my tastes. A must-buy to add conversation starters to your base Dixit.

Be aware that it is a different illustrator than previously. You will notice the difference straightaway. They should have made some cards with brighter colours. They are all a bit sad and a bit too similar. Anyway great game so still happy with the new possibilities.

Great way to reinvigorate the game, as with the original cards these too are beautifully designed and varied. I would certainly recommend these to boost the game plus they come in a nice little box as pictured. The service from the seller was great too.
