We love this game!  Received it for Christmas and have played it EVERY DAY since.  I'm surprised about the number of players (2-4) that the manufacturer has on the box.  My whole family (family of 9, ranging from age 4 to 45) have gathered around the table to play at one time. Definitely more than 4 people can play this game. My youngest can play with a little assistance from an older child sitting next to her.  Just make sure it's the person who just played their turn, and not the person that is about to play after her.  That's just to ensure that there's no temptation to cheat :)  If you like board games, you should get this one.  Grown-ups like it just as much as kids, and many people can play, or just two.  How often can you say that about a game?  The game combines thinking and luck.  The 4 yr old has won a few times.
