Addictive Game That is Fun for the Whole Family

Strengths: Loads of fun Simple to learn Will have wide appeal to both men/women/boys/girls

Weakness: None I can think of.

This game is a lot of fun but though I have friends that claim they have finished games in 30 minutes, it takes us closer to 2 hours!

This game offers some of the most dynamic strategy I've ever seen in a game and the requisite "diplomacy" inherent in each round is enough to make politicians blanch. I've never had more fun being nice to my brother while stabbing him in the back 2 rounds down the road. My only real...
