Verdict: Don’t let the lower score fool you. While my review criteria doesn’t seem to favor this game, I think it scores low because it is simple, easy to play, and lacks player interaction. This is not a bad thing! This game is relaxing and quick to play after a long day at work. Highly recommend.
