If you've ever been on Boardgamegeek.com or seen bloggers, reviewers, or anyone talking about Boardgames over the past few years, you've probably seen this mentioned. There is a good reason for that. This game is FUN! Very easy to learn, looks beautiful, plays in about an hour. What more could you ask for? I've taught many people to play it, and not one person hasn't enjoyed this game. Buy it!
