Product Description

Family Fluxx is a smaller, easier, less expensive, family-oriented version of the popular game, Fluxx. Like Fluxx in game play, but with beautiful color artwork by Alison Looney, improved card design, and completely overhauled rule presentation, Family Fluxx features an attractive new look for the best selling family of card games. Yet Family Fluxx still has the same old card back, so Fluxx fans can mix the new cards into their existingdecks. Family Fluxx is the perfect version of the game to play at family game night, when the kids friends visit, on holidays, at family reunions, or anytime and with anyone --even if theyre not part of your family--.

I bought this game for our family after playing it at my brother's house. It fast became one of my son's favorite games. He wanted to bring it whenever we went to visit someone. It's of course very portable (just a deck of cards), and very easy to learn (draw one, play one). What's best about it is you never know who's going to win. You can't get 'close' to winning, since the rules keep changing.

It's a great game that never gets stale, and helps to teach strategy, too. It's a combination of poker and chess skills, in that you have to try to guess what your opponents have, based on what they play. You also have to think 2-3 plays ahead to try to control the game. Of course, you can also just play each card as it comes up, if you don't feel like thinking!

I really like this game. It involves strategy, but the awesome part is that the rules are changing constanty by playing cards such as "hand limit one" or "play three". You're ready to win on your next turn, but someone else ruins your plan, so you have to think of a new one. If you like playing games to win, you'll probably find it frustrating, but if you play games just for fun, you'd find it enjoyable. This is the kind of game that's more fun with the more people you play with. It's still okay playing with two but four or more is the best!

Pros:

colorful, understandable cards

self explanitory (just takes a while to catch on)

strategic but fun

great group game.

also ok with 2 people

anyone can join in at the miiddle of the game (but you might have to explain it)

Cons:

sometimes frustrating

can get really complicated when rules change! (sometimes you just have to wing it.)

if you're just learning, it takes a while to get it.

teaching someone how to play is really confusing

Has a basic set of rules that allows for a dynamic game since the players can change the details of the rules (e.g., number of cards you draw each turn). Got this for my kids (6 & 8) - great to watch them create a strategy.
