Dominion Review by: Josselyne-Ant Reviewers Rating:      5 StarsDominion is comparably a new game. But there is a difference. Dominion has such a good reputation for having one of the least multi-account players of any multi-player strategy game I have come across. The one moderator does everything, and since Dominion isn’t company run, players get to comment and suggest on how the game should run, played and other things. One of the better things I like about Dominion is that it’s fun. Of course, you’d say any game would be fun if you tried hard enough. The fun-factor not only comes out because of the idea of the game, but also because Dominion is a game built upon co-operation. Around 25 players work together to help each other in collections called realms. Which I believe is much more interesting and co-operative than guilds and alliances. (Or any others). Dominion has also won my vote because it is so simple. That is why the game continually gets new players that stay. Anyone can learn how the game can be played, as simple as checkers. The online help file "The Scribes" shows how easy it is to play Dominion. The entire help file is like a newbie training tutorial as it doesn’t use annoying game jargons nor is it thick as an encyclopædia. Another thing that makes Dominion easy and fun is the simple, yet well-defined races available to choose from. So whether you want to be a Human or Troll and fight your way to the top, work around simple magic with the Elfs, or thieve and spy your way to victory with Hobbits. I suggest you give Dominion a try, as it is the only multi-player strategy game I know that has gained my vote through game presentation and quality.Date Posted: Saturday, December 16, 2000
