If you've never played FLUXX, then this is a fine introduction to the game. All versions share similar rules and the basic game is original and fun, with nary a learning curve to stop novice players from enjoying it. If you are (or know someone who is) a sci-fi movie fan, then this is a must buy. Most movies and shows in the genre are referenced in thinly veiled quips that consistently bring a smile to my face. FLUXX itself is a fun game even for 2 people, although the entertainment increases with more people. I am quite pleased with the purchase.
