There are currently eight Dominion expansions; each introduces a particular gameplay concept or mechanism to the game, or focuses on a different aspect of gameplay:

  • Intrigue, a large expansion of 25 Kingdom cards, introduces Victory cards that share other types and focuses on cards that allow a player to choose between multiple effects. Intrigue is also a standalone, coming with its own set of Basic cards.
  • Seaside, a large expansion of 26 Kingdom cards, introduces Duration cards and in general focuses on cards that can have effects on turns other than when they're played.
  • Alchemy, a small expansion of 12 Kingdom cards, introduces PotionPotion.jpg and focuses on Action cards.
  • Prosperity, a large expansion of 25 Kingdom cards, introduces PlatinumPlatinum.jpg and ColonyColony.jpg, $7-costing cards, and VP tokens, and focuses on Treasure cards and powerful or expensive cards.
  • Cornucopia, a small expansion of 13 Kingdom cards, focuses on cards that reward or increase diversity in players' hands and decks.
  • Hinterlands, a large expansion of 26 Kingdom cards, focuses on cards with when-gain and when-buy effects.
  • Dark Ages, an extra-large expansion of 35 Kingdom cards, introduces Ruins, Shelters, and various other unusual configurations of cards, and focuses on trashing.
  • Guilds, a small expansion of 13 Kingdom cards, introduces Coin tokens and overpaying.
  • Adventures, an extra-large expansion of 30 Kingdom cards, which revisits Duration cards, and introduces Reserve and Event cards. It is expected to be released on April 8th 2015.

There are also several promotional cards that are typically made for gaming conventions, a set of Base Cards with fancy art, and a number of combined and "special edition" sets built from pre-existing expansions.
