About the game
If you're already a Dixit fan, you know the magic lies in what isn't said, but rather felt through the imagery. Well, what if I told you that you could make that experience even richer and more unpredictable? That's exactly what Dixit: Journey brings to your table! This isn't a standalone game, but a robust expansion that packs 84 brand-new cards, all featuring that surrealistic and artistic vibe we absolutely adore. The illustrations, crafted by the talented Xavier Collette, are a visual feast designed specifically to stretch your friends' imaginations (in the best way possible!).

The gameplay follows the classic Dixit flow you know and love: one player steps up as the Storyteller, picking a card from their hand and offering a clue—which could be a phrase, a single word, or even a strange sound. The other players select cards from their own hands that they feel match that clue and submit them secretly. Once the cards are shuffled and revealed, the real fun begins. The challenge? You have to try and identify the Storyteller's original card without being misled by the clever decoys provided by the other players! If the clue is too obvious and everyone gets it right, or if it's so cryptic that no one does, the Storyteller scores nothing. The sweet spot is being understood by some, but not everyone.

Just a heads-up: don't try to play this without the base game! Dixit: Journey is an expansion, meaning you'll need the original Dixit or Dixit Odyssey components to get the party started. It doesn't include a board or movers—just the pure power of stunning artwork. It's the perfect upgrade for players looking to refresh their visual repertoire and ensure that no one can ever truly predict the next move at the table. Get your imagination ready, because the surrealism is just getting started!
