For those of you who want to test your Dominion knowledge and your memory at the same time, I have created three quizzes on Sporcle:

Kingdom Cards: Base Set through Guilds
Kingdom Cards: Adventures through Plunder (plus Promos)
Events, Landmarks, Projects, Ways, Allies, and Traits

I got 136. I got all of the Alchemy and Promos, almost all of the Base set, and varying amounts of the other ones.

I won't do the Events at the moment because I don't know those too well

I have fun with these. I got 174 on my first try, though I did a similar test awhile back.

Guessed all of Cornucopia and all Promos. I can't believe I missed some from Alchemy and Guilds.

I tried to play this, but it isn't giving me any clue. It just says "Enter card name". I don't get it. how do you play?

EDIT: okay, I get it now. you just have to remember all the card names (and how to spell them -I can never spell beaurocrat without looking it up...). I'll have to restart the timer now.

first try: 135. My memory doesn't tend to work quickly.

You're just trying to list as many card names as you can.

149 on first try. Got all of Alchemy and Guilds. Forgot Walled Village from Promos.

AJD · « **Reply #6 on:** August 19, 2015, 02:04:14 am »

200 first try. I can be satisfied with that.

ChocophileBenj · « **Reply #7 on:** August 19, 2015, 04:17:48 am »

185/236 !
I couldn't find again some names in Adventures, however.

The ones I missed
-in Base : Spy, Thief---------
-Intrigue : Steward, Scout----------
-Prosperity : only Counting house
-Cornucopia : Remake, Horse traders
-Guilds : Plaza, Merchant Guild
-Alchemy : None !
I missed a lot in Seaside, Hinterlands and Dark Ages but if I focused a bit more on them I'd have them

157 on my first try. Damn, I really need to start playing more Dominion again.

Wow I couldn't for the life of me remember "Envoy" even though I had the picture and effect in my mind.

134. I got most of the ones from the sets I own, since they're alphabetized. So I just went down the box in order. Missed pretty much all of Hinterlands and Seaside, and most of the other sets I don't own.

ephesos · « **Reply #11 on:** August 20, 2015, 10:07:06 am »

Cool, if you guess the new promo, it pops up in a little extra box.

I like that older one that separates the cards by cost and type. I think it's a good level of hint to have. But that one never updated after Guilds.

Awaclus · « **Reply #13 on:** August 20, 2015, 05:51:11 pm »

190 on my second try.

Asper · « **Reply #14 on:** August 20, 2015, 07:50:44 pm »

182 on my first try. I spent the last 10 seconds trying to remember the correct spelling of "Masquerade". Only got Alchemy and the Promos completely, with the most cards (10) missing in Hinterlands.

First try:

werothegreat · « **Reply #16 on:** August 21, 2015, 12:08:07 am »

Events: 21/20, 0:34 remaining. I keep forgetting that Expedition exists, for some reason.

First try:

I had a feeling that you'd be good at this, Wero. Spending so much time working on the wiki really helped, I bet.

EDIT: Holy crap, I don't think even I've ever done it that fast. 13 minutes is my usual speed.

I considered that, but decided that makes it too easy. It makes a lot of the cards gimmes if you know them (how many Treasure/Reaction cards are there?). I could be convinced, though.

I suppose it's different difficulty levels which different people may find difficult. For me, I never got 100% on that other one. There was always a few things that I just couldn't think of, even when knowing it was a $4 attack from Seaside or something. But then you have people like Wero, who should be given no sets or prices, and should have to do it with a 5 minute time limit, while blindfolded, with a hand tied behind his back, while someone screams random words in his ear nonstop.

I may or may not list off all the Dominion Kingdom cards to myself while driving, or exercising, or otherwise having to wait for something.

GendoIkari · « **Reply #21 on:** August 21, 2015, 06:08:09 pm »

Also, I know this is specifically a Kingdom Cards list, but I like that the other one included other cards like basic cards and non-supply cards.

Well, you can enter e.g. Madman into my quiz and it will fill in Hermit for you. Likewise with Prizes, etc. I guess it's tougher to remember the name of each individual Knight, but maybe there is/should be a separate quiz for that.

Really there are two reasons I did it this way. First, most of the non-Kingdom cards are trivial to remember and just take up precious seconds while you type them in. Second, a quiz can have at most 300 answers and last at most 20 minutes. If there are more expansions, I want to have room for those, too.

I know all the cards but I'm not familiar with events yet.
