SUCH a good board game. Easy to learn. Super fun! I only wish you could play with more than 4 players!

When your favorite game of all time goes on sale you have to buy a few to give as gifts. I love the simplicity of this game.

I dont write a lot of reviews--but this game is the bomb!!! Played it on a Saturday at game night with family as they were meeting my significant other. First off great game for breaking the ice. Second it is easy enough to get the hang of but once you start playing it just gets more awesome-especially as you add strategy. Only downside is that is is just for 2-4 people but that kinda is an upside too so you dont need a lot of people to play. Bought it as we were playing the game, came the next day. Best amazon deliver yet. :)

Mamy different strategies to try to win.

My 9 year old daughter and I enjoy playing this game. My husband also found it fun even though he doesnt always enjoy playing games. It can be fast with 2 players ( a bit longer with 4) but still requires strategy. It isnt a game you hope for luck in rolling dice (no dice included in the game). It is all about your selections. After reading the instructions, it seemed like I still had questions on how to play the game. Once I watched a video online, was simple after that. Once you know how to play, it is easy to explain it to a new comer. Set up is also fast.

This is the best board game Ive ever played. Family Favorite. I am responsible for probably 10 other people running to buy this game from my collection of friends/family who have been exposed to the game. Its a game where there is very little luck, you roll your own fate in this game, no dice, just tactics. Perfect! You can easily play this with 8 players if you buy a 2nd copy and double the chips. We have done it many times with no issues. Save one games decks for when the 1st games deck starts to wear out. The poker chips that represent the gems in this game are of amazing quality, they are HEAVY and that just adds something to the experience, cant explain it. I use the KMC Hyper-Mat Clear sleeves and so far one beer has been spilled all over the cards with no issues. Highly recommended!

What a game. Easy to learn but challenging to win. You have to buy a card so that you can get another card to get another card. And if you are kucky you may pick up another card. The game is ver well made. The coins (which are ruby, diamonds and other rare gems) are nice and heavy. We had a game night and played 5 hours straight. Very addictive and very fun. Ive yet to win after about a dozen games. The goal of the game is to get victory points. To do this you have to collect gems for points. You may have to have 3 diamonds, 2 onyx and 1 emerald to buy a card that is only a ruby. From there you keep collecting the cards so that you can buy a more valuable gem. Very innovative. We have been playing dominion every week for our game night but this one is taking over. Setup and play is more fast than Dominion. Genius. I highly recommend it and it is cheap!

Such a fun game! I love that all my kiddos can learn it and have a great time playing it. From my 7-yr-old to my 14-yr-old, plus my husband and me! We all love it! It’s relatively quick too (30-45 min). I like a game that doesn’t take all day. :o)

Such a well made game and took an appropriate amount of time, probably about 30 minutes. We watched a YouTube video how to play and everyone from my 9 year old on up has enjoyed it. It starts off slower and then at the end is always a close race to whoever gets 15 points first. The organization of the box design in putting the pieces away, each in their own spot, makes it feel even more expensive as well.

Ive owned this game since May 9th, 2014. Since then, this game has been played no less than four times in a row every single Sunday when I meet up with my family. The first couple of times we played, we thought that there was one strategy that was clearly the best approach, and I was a little afraid that wed get burned out on it shortly after. This couldnt have been further than the truth. The more you play this game, the more you see its depth. Marc Andre has very obviously put a great deal of thought into the balance of this game. Perhaps a few cards could be adjusted slightly, but I must insist that this game is probably has the most even ratio between accessibility and depth of all the games in my collection. My 71-year-old grandmother didnt believe she was capable of learning any tabletop game that doesnt involve a trump deck. She learned this game in thirty-five minutes, and asked to play it every evening she was in town this past week. Its simple: If you like board games, buy this one. The components are very high quality, the game is superbly balanced, and the replay value is extremely high. Its also excellent for those that dont like to park it for too long. The thirty minute estimate on the box is right on target.
