Snowy Village is an Action card from Menagerie. It is a village that gives a large number of +Actions, but at the cost of preventing you from getting any more +Actions for the rest of the turn.

FAQ

Official FAQ

  • Any extra Actions you already had before playing this do not go away; for example, if you play Village and then Snowy Village, you can play 5 more Actions after that.
  • Any further +Actions you would get that turn, you do not, including from playing another Snowy Village or converting Villagers (from Renaissance).
  • This does not stop you from playing more cards via cards that tell you to play cards, such as Throne Room.

Other rules clarifications

  • You can convert Villagers between drawing the card and reaching the sentence that prevents further +Actions.
  • If you have played a Champion, you'll get +1 Action from it when you play Snowy Village, and then you won't get any +Actions from Champion for the rest of the turn. If Great Leader is in effect, Snowy Village similarly overrules the free Actions it grants (including the one that it would try to give you after playing Snowy Village).
  • If you play this with Conclave, Snowy Village will prevent you from getting +1 Action from Conclave.

Trivia

Official card art.

Snowy Village is based on an idea debuted in a parody Christmas Kingdom by Donald X. Vaccarino and head playtester LastFootnote. In the parody kingdom, Snowy Village only cost $2, but it gave only 2 Actions and no +Buy.

Preview

Snowy Village gives you a bunch of actions and a buy, but closes the door on even more actions that turn. Some of you may remember this from the holiday joke cards that were on dominionstrategy a few years ago. I wouldn't be expecting those other cards, but this one was worth doing.

Secret History

This started life as a joke card, in a Christmas kingdom I made (with help from Matt). Hey that idea wasn't bad. I made it more exciting by giving it +4 Actions and +1 Buy. Eventually it dropped from $4 to $3. The original: https://dominionstrategy.com/2017/12/25/2017-holiday-kingdom/
