While the game is somewhat complex its enjoyable, and actually has surprisingly good replayability. The game AI is actually good so single player is fun, although their early game choices don't vary that much. Overall the game definitely represents the board game well and is good fun

Very good, flawless online version of the board game. You lose some of the feel of endless stress due to not holding actual cards, but win some convenience back not having to manage the board tiles.

One of my favorite board games. With traditional board games, I often struggle to find another player, but here I have the whole world. Thumbs up!

This has to be the best 2 player board game. Nobody is ever out of the game, there's always a chance to win.

The definitive PVP tabletop game. Dice rolls are a load of bull, but they always are.
