@alexandereno the fun of the game is interaction and knowing the people you play. It's not intended to be a deep board game. Luck is what makes the game fun. You never know who's what.

i played this game once with 6 ppl and i can say i was bored to death ... you wait till everyone chooses a role and after that you play once per turn and again wait to see what everyone else does .So much luck involved ,there is a chance that you dont get to play at all in a game ,if the thief always gets you and you are the last to pick a role ... many ppl seem to like this game ,but i just cant see why .so much luck and downtime for a pretty simple card game

the game doesn't end when someone lays down 8 cards, the rest of the round is still played out.

@ymala1 Yeah, that's an expansion they made for it that they now include with the game. It's good, we like some of the characters and almost all of the bonus districts.

@spiderfingers86 My box actually came with something they call the dark city expansion, I don't know if that's just promo BS to make you think you got a good deal, but it made me feel good :)

I actually haven't played a single game yet so I wouldn't know if the expansion's anything of merit or not. :s

Awesome work. I just got the game for my birthday, still haven't played a single round of it yet :) I'm glad you say it's a great 2 player game, the version I have comes in a pretty diminutive box so I'll be taking it around everywhere now. I liked the review, gave a good sense of how the game plays with some good details but without getting very deep into it such that it would be boring.

@0cado because it makes a good introduction. Brings attention to the creator's name. Now you are talking about it on the comments.. The intro has done its job.

@0cado because nobody really cares. It doesn't change the game review.
