It’s fast, it’s easy to teach and learn, and it’s a lot of fun. There’s enough depth to the game to keep you interested for at least a few dozen plays, but not so much that a new player is doomed against an experienced player. Luck is a significant factor, no question, but playing each game as three separate rounds (as recommended in the rules) helps take care of this. It’s a great ‘couple’ game because you can play it after dinner and talk as you do so, since there’s no need to devote every neuron to the game situation. The cards and board are quite nice, and for the price it’s worth having as a filler/gateway type game. It’s not the best game you’ll ever play, but I believe its reputation as a modern classic is well-deserved.
