The family got a few card games for Christmas - Bohnanza, Dutch Blitz, and Munchkin Marvel Edition. Bohnanza is fun, plays pretty quick and there is a reasonable trade of strategy vs luck. Dutch Blitz we are just getting the hang of, yet another occasion where YouTube gameplay videos come in handy as the included instructions were poorly translated. Munchkin Marvel plays pretty similar to Munchkin but I think it is not as well balanced as you can get hugely powerful pretty quick. But I do like that they include level trackers. Also got a dice game called Left Center Right, which is good to teach the kids gambling.
Picked up Dominion on a Boxing day sale, but haven't had a chance to crack it open yet.
