Evaluation
Splendor is a digital adaptation of the board game that released on September 17, 2015. It received three paid DLC expansions — The Cities (April 11, 2018), The Strongholds (October 10, 2018), and The Trading Posts (April 2, 2020) — all of which have shipped. The store description references these expansions by name and presents them as the complete expansion lineup. The most recent developer news post dates from May 24, 2016, a feature patch adding new challenge content, and subsequent activity has been limited to maintenance and bug fix patches. With no unreleased DLC listed on the store, no developer announcements of future content, and the last major content release (The Trading Posts) on April 2, 2020, the game appears to have reached the end of its content lifecycle. There is no roadmap, no announced expansions, and no developer communication suggesting additional content is coming. The game launched as a faithful board game adaptation and has delivered its full set of expansions.
Evidence
The Trading Posts DLC released on April 2, 2020 — the most recent major content addition. All three listed DLC packs have been released.
The Strongholds DLC released October 10, 2018, the second of three expansions.

The digital version of Splendor faithfully adapts all the various elements of the Space Cowboys’ award-winning board game:
Splendor introduces a special game mode, called Challenges. Challenges are based on historical events and anecdotes of the 15th and 16th centuries, setting up a real scenario in various places across the world. They teach you advanced techniques and offer rules variants. They put the player in unique situations with a goal to reach. Either earn a certain number of points or pick up a special card combination, in a limited time or limited number of moves.
Become a game expert and achieve 48 challenges along the trading routes of the world (Madrid, St. Petersburg…), not to mention duels facing great historical figures such as Charles V or Marie Stuart.
