I heard a lot of people say that the Duel variant is the better game.

There is also 7 Wonders or Agricola with full games and duel version. Which one do you prefer?

Splendor and Agricola I've played the base games only so I can't say, but between 7 wonders and duel I prefer clearly the duel version, even if probably the base is the better game objectively.

I really like both 7 wonders. The big game is easy to teach and can be played with 7 people which is rare for a non-party game. But we played a lot of duel too. Even got an expansion but were not that impressed. I think it was called pantheon.

7 wonders duel is such a good basegame. The focus on the limitted ways to victory is its main strength, and the toght card pool. It is difficult to add something equally strong, without adding too many side focusses, or inbalances. We play mainly the base game due to this.
