This should be on most every "typical family" game shelf. Replaces the slot usually reserved for the ubiquitous monopoly board with a board game whose competitive gameplay keeps every player involved for the duration of the game. Unlike monopoly, game length shouldn't unnecessarily drag on (if you're taking more than an hour or two you might be doing it wrong). Gameplay works for 2-5 players but this board shines at 3-5 players (for a great 2-player variant try the Nordic Countries box).
