Game Review: I had never played this game as a child, but was introduced to it as an adult, and became almost instantly addicted to it. It's endlessly fun, because no two games are ever the same, and one's fortunes can change in a heartbeat! So it's exciting and fast-paced up to the end. And it's also good for children, because it's challenging enough to keep them occupied, without being overly rule-bound. A true family classic that has stood the test of time!
