This game will rip your friendships apart and build them back up even stronger. A game filled with accusations and mistrust, you must weed out the liars of the group to figure out who to send on the missions. This game is LOADS of fun if played with the right group of people. If you find however that the spies win the game an inordinate amount of the time (Still fun even when the spies win) there are variations of the rules that will balance it for you. I recommend adding in the Merlin character.

A great game to bring out the gambler in you. Betting on imaginary camel races is more fun than you might think. With their movements controlled by dice the outcomes can be quite surprising. Nothing like that surprise sequence of dice rolls to get everyone playing the game yelling and cheering. This may be a weird thing to include in a review but their dice rolling mechanism is……. GENIUS! My only complaint is that you will find that the incentive of 1 coin for a player to use their turn to make a roll is not enough. I have tried adjusting it to 2 with some friends but it still doesn’t feel like the right amount, maybe 1.5 would work if there were half coins.

I was skeptical of this game at first and felt like I had to make fairly random decisions when playing this game the first few times. However, you really start to see the effects of early decisions later in the game. The game is unpredictable and can get very strategic if played between two people who know the game well. You will understand my love of the game when you control your first Dvonn piece and jump it across the board wiping out half of your opponents stacks!!!
