We taught our 5 yr old daughter the game "31" right before buying this game. It just so happens that this is backwards "31" but with blind cards in your hand and power cards to let you peek, swap, or draw 2. Too complicated? Not at all! It just brings the game to a whole new level with strategy and memory. I'm pretty addicted to it myself! Could use it at an grown-up party with chips or money thrown in the pot when you lose a hand, just for a twist on the normal euchre or poker party.
