Dixit: Quest adds 84 new illustrated cards that can be played alone or with the base game cards. Each round, one player acts as the Storyteller, selecting a card and telling a story. Other players pick cards secretly that match the story. These are shuffled and revealed, then all players vote on the Storyteller’s card. Points are scored only if some but not all players guess correctly, creating a mix of creativity and deduction.
Who Is This Game For?
This expansion is aimed at Dixit players aged 8 and up who want to enrich their game with new images and stories. With a playtime of around 30 minutes, it suits short game sessions. Classified as a family game, it does not require complex prior experience.
How It Works
In each round, one player is the Storyteller and chooses a card from their hand. Other players secretly select cards that fit the story and submit them to the Storyteller. The cards are shuffled and revealed, then everyone votes on the Storyteller’s card. Points are awarded if some but not all players guess correctly. The mechanics of Simultaneous Action Selection, Storytelling, and Voting drive the gameplay.
