Everyone loves this game
My 5 year old daughter and my 65 year old stepdad both love this game. It’s relaxed yet cutthroat. Quick to learn and play.

Great for the whole family!
My family loves to play this! Simple and fun, with enough depth to keep my wife and I entertained. The kids (3, 4, 6) all love playing and play at different strategy levels (with the 3 yo always stealing from her mom :) ).
Teaches probabilities in a fun way too. Highly recommend!!
P.S. grandparents and everyone else we've invited to play loved it too!
