I am hooked on this game. The rules are easy once you figure it out. The tricky part is learning the correct strategy. Every game is different. It's pretty quick to play also.

Does anyone know of different versions of rules that you can play. Some games have a couple ways to play. Didn't know if this was one. I didn't see anything in the rules but wanted to see if anyone else plays different. I'd love to learn how to play.

Played this at a party and was a little lost the first time around. They quickly explained the game rules and said it would make more sense after we played one round. Boy were they right. Much easier to learn how to play by watching it be played.
