It's fun! It's random! It's about half skill, half luck. Best played with 3 or more people. Games can last from 15 minutes to 2 hours. Ripplepoints do not need to be played with, they're just an extra step, unless you're playing with mega BTTF Fans, it's best if you don't play with Ripplepoints. If someone asked me to make a BTTF card game, it'd be pretty hard to top this.
