Critical Hits Podcast #2: Valerie Putman explains Dominion

June 26, 2008 by Dave

Dominion is a new card game coming out from Rio Grande Games, but is still in prototype form at the show. This was a highly praised game at this year’s Gathering and is generating quite a lot of early buzz- and for good reason. I’ll give a more indepth preview later, but for now, here’s Valerie Putman (developer of Dominion and Boardgamenews Columnist) explaining the rules.

And if that hasn’t satisfied enough of your curiousity, Dale Yu (the other developer) and Valerie posted a preview on Boardgamenews.

    Every time I try to download this, it stalls at EXACTLY 20%. Every time. I try again every few days, always exactly the same result.
