I got this for Christmas, and what a fun game. We played with a variety of people and age levels, and everyone seemed to enjoy it. It isn't complicated, so even if you have younger people (or a lot older, for that matter), they'll be able to play with you. The game also takes a reasonable amount of time, meaning that it isn't very lengthy like Settlers or even Monopoly tends to be. You should be able to get a few rounds in during a game night with friends.
