7 Wonders Leaders Expansion

My family LOVES 7 Wonders, and we play it A LOT! We have the other expansion and use it regularly. This expansion is really good, but it's much harder to learn and handle. My 10-year-old plays 7 Wonders easily and has for the past few years, but this expansion gives him difficulty. The required planning for a game is a pretty big step up from just the base game. I definitely recommend this, but not for younger players.

This is an expansion that adds some depth to the game. Not to much to overwelm, but enought to be a little bit more challenging. The product came in great conditions.

Estamos obsesionados con 7 Wonders, tanto que compramos todas las expansiones disponibles del juego base, incluida la expansión Leaders. Esta expansión agrega una nueva dinámica al juego y, si ya llevas tiempo jugando 7 Wonders, las reglas y mecánicas adicionales son fáciles de entender. Hace unos días jugamos con las tres expansiones al mismo tiempo y la experiencia fue increíble. Hay muchos elementos que tener en cuenta, pero eso es justamente lo que lo hace tan entretenido y disfrutable. Totalmente recomendado para quienes ya aman el juego base.

Muy contento por el producto

I received this expansion about a week ago. We own an original (first edition) base game of 7 Wonders. This expansion is our first one and has had reviews as the best one to buy. You will need the base game, but you DO NOT need the updated (second edition) base game to play. It works fine with either edition. Note: the game site lists that it is best to keep the 2nd edition expansions with the 2nd edition base game because of how they rebalanced the game. It still works, but please understand that. The cards in this expansion are different looking (black backs), but this expansion never mixes cards into the base game, so there is no need for them to look the same. The two wonders (cities) that it comes with are physically larger pieces of cardboard than the original base game wonders, but they play the same. I wish they were smaller, to conserve table space. I also wish they had the small wonder cards for the two new wonders (cities) in case you like to "blind draw" your wonders at the start of the game.

Easy to learn & makes game play more complex (in a good way)

Leaders adds some additional drafting of cards before the 7 wonders game starts where you can pick a series of leaders you can play at the top of the epochs following the same resolution rules as the base game. What this does is allows you to have a more focused first round. Usually first epoch of 7 Wonders you're kind of just grabbing whatever. And then you build off your foundation for second and third. Leaders gives you a bit of a goal since you have a sneak peek into potential future cards. Very lightweight expansion that nudges your thinking to be more focused in the first round.

2nd best expansion for the game

One of the best expansion, so fun to play.

Adds a rich layer of strategy and replayability to the base game, making it a must‑have for fans who enjoy deeper decision‑making. Introducing powerful Leader cards that provide unique abilities and special bonuses, this expansion allows players to shape their civilisation from the very start, giving each playthrough a fresh strategic direction. The new mechanics fit seamlessly with the streamlined 2nd Edition design, and the Leaders feel well‑balanced, offering meaningful choices without slowing down the game’s flow. With gorgeous artwork, high‑quality components, and smooth integration for 3–7 players, this expansion enhances the familiar 40‑minute experience while keeping it accessible for families and seasoned gamers alike. If you love 7 Wonders and want more depth, variety, and clever combos, the Leaders Expansion is an excellent addition to the table.

Amazing!!! Excellent expansion, one of the best
