Splendor vs Splendor Duel - which is better? (feddit.de)

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?

7 Wonders and the Duel version have similar feel and vibe, but the mechanics aren't quite the same. The Fuel version feels more intense for some reason.

One big difference between 7 Wonders and Splendor is that the versions are mutually exclusive; 7 Wonders needs a minimum of 3 players.

Really? That's interesting, because I do think 7 Wonders has enough interesting decisions throughout the game to keep it going. I don't think it's a particularly heavy game but it's still pretty fun, and being able to do 7 players is bonus when you have that many people over.

Duel is definitely the stronger game though, so I agree on that. BBG's ratings line up with that view,.
