Dixit Odyssey is both a standalone game and an expansion for Jean-Louis Roubira's Dixit, which won Germany's Spiel des Jahres award in 2010.

Game play in Dixit Odyssey matches that of Dixit: Each turn one player is the storyteller. This player secretly chooses one card in his hand, then gives a word or sentence to describe this card – but not too obviously. Each other player chooses a card in hand that matches this word/sentence and gives it to the storyteller. The storyteller then lays out the cards, and all other players vote on which card belongs to the storyteller. If no one or everyone guesses the storyteller's card, the storyteller receives no points and all players receive two; otherwise the storyteller and the correct guesser(s) each receive three points. Players score one point for each vote their image receives. Players refill their hands, and the next player becomes the storyteller. When the deck runs out, the player with the most points wins.

Dixit Odyssey contains 84 new cards, each with a unique image drawn by Pierô and colored by Marie Cardouat, artist of Dixit and Dixit 2. The stand alone version also includes a folding game board, 6 new rabbit scoring tokens (12 total), and a box large enough to hold all the Dixit cards released to date. The stand alone version of Dixit Odyssey includes enough components for up to twelve players and also has variant rules for team play and for new ways to play with the cards.

• Standalone version is in a square box (released in 2011 but may still be available).
• Expansion version is in a rectangular box (available from 2013 onwards): Dixit: Odyssey (expansion)

Note: This is not a standalone product and you'll need the base game Dixit or Dixit Journey to play.

Expansion for Dixit or Dixit Journey. 84 new cards with paintings that can be used on their own (but then you need some kind of voting tokens and paper and pencil to take notes of the scoring) or with those from the base game (Dixit or Dixit: Journey).

The game does not contain scoring board and tokens, but it will be packed in a smaller box in which it is much easier to take it on a trip. This game could theoretically be played as it is, but the components needed to play are contained in the base-game.

As in Dixit, each round, one player takes on the role of Storyteller who chooses one card from his hand, tells, sings or does something that in his opinion is associated with the played card. Other players choose their own cards. Then cards are shuffled and revealed, and players vote which card was played by Storyteller, and score points according to their guesses.

Player who has the most points wins the game.

As with Dixit Quest/Dixit 2 and Dixit 3, Dixit Origins (a.k.a. Dixit 4) is an expansion for Dixit with 84 new cards that feature fantastic and surrealistic artwork. These cards can be used with the components of the base game to provide more variety or used to play the Dixit game on their own (although you'd need to provide your own scoring board and voting tokens, in addition to knowing the rules).

As for the game play in Dixit, each round one player takes on the role of Storyteller, choosing one card from his hand, then telling a story, singing a ditty or otherwise doing something that in his opinion is associated with the played card. Each other player then chooses one card in her own hand and gives it to the Storyteller in secret. These cards are shuffled and revealed, then players vote on which card was played by the Storyteller. If no one or everyone votes for the Storyteller, then he receives no points; if he received some votes but not all the votes, he scores based on the number of votes received. Each player who submitted a correct vote or who received a vote on her card submission also scores. After a certain number of rounds, the player with the most points wins.

2010 Spiel des Jahres Winner

One player is the storyteller for the turn and looks at the images on the 6 cards in her hand. From one of these, she makes up a sentence and says it out loud (without showing the card to the other players).

Each other player selects the card in their hands which best matches the sentence and gives the selected card to the storyteller, without showing it to the others.

The storyteller shuffles her card with all the received cards. All pictures are shown face up and every player has to bet upon which picture was the storyteller's.

If nobody or everybody finds the correct card, the storyteller scores 0, and each of the other players scores 2. Otherwise the storyteller and whoever found the correct answer score 3. Players score 1 point for every vote for their own card.

The game ends when the deck is empty or if a player scores 30 points. In either case, the player with the most points wins the game.

The base game and all expansions have 84 cards each.

Jinx is a new Game in the Dixit family but unlike the original game the drawings are not realistic illustrations depicting scenes but images halfway between abstraction and figuration.

During the game 9 cards are exposed in a square 3x3. The active player draws a locator map that will show him one of the nine cards with which he will play. This location is held secret.

The player must now speak, sing, act out something that makes thinking about this card just like in "Dixit". 

The other players go around and point to the card they think is correct but beware! Only one player can point a given card. Once a player has chosen the right card, the turn stops (although some have not chosen). The player who finds the right card keeps it (each card gives a victory point). Players who erred give their cards to the player active. But if neither player gets it right card, the active player must return one of the cards previously won.
