Better than nearly every other expansion, I feel like Menagerie takes mechanics that interact *with* other expansions in very interesting ways.  The "weird costs" and exiled cards bend *so* many games.    Lots of Ways also make really, really interesting decisions with a ton of other expansion cards.   

Renaissance was cool and I thought it was a great step for players that wanted simpler games.  Menagerie still feels simpler than Nocturne, and is simpler to set up than any post-Guilds expansion.   Throw out the 10 cards, maybe horses, and 1-2 projects.  That's it.  No additional tokens.  No additional piles (horses / way of the mouse excepted).  Ways is a different mental model, as is exile, but that's it.  Simple, but deep and interesting.

Color me incredibly impressed.

I'm excited. I'm looking forward to getting it on the table just as soon as I'm at a table playing games with people again...

I also like it quite a lot. It might or might not be in the top 3.
