I was really missing out! The silliness does add to the fun, but I must say the mechanics of the game really work. Its not a long or complex game like <a href=\"http:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgame\/12493\/twilight-imperium-third-edition\">Twilight Imperium<\/a> or even <a href=\"http:\/\/boardgamegeek.com\/boardgame\/37111\/battlestar-galactica\">Battlestar Galactica<\/a>. You can play it in 45 minutes with three people, if everyone keeps the pace moving.<\/p>\n<p>Can&#8217;t wait for another round. Highly recommended!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quite a few years ago I received the card game Munchkin as a gift from mom.
