from 1 Ludoya review
Fun dice game, with a heavy push-your-luck element that works out pretty well. PROS - Easy to explain and learn. Suitable for almost everyone. - Very nice components. - While the Advanced mode makes it more interesting if you're playing a lot, advanced gamers may have fun just with the Basic mode. CONS - It isn't super interactive (while the Advanced mode fixes this if you feel like having to fix it). - The strategy, obviously, is quite limited as it is luck-driven. More fun than thinking in here. I spent a whole weekend playing this with a special person, so my personal opinion may be biased (I really enjoyed that weekend). I guess that means that it works nicely with just 2 people. Just a fun game when you don't feel like thinking a lot.
