Despite reading the rules (both in game and in description), it took me a while to understand how to play. But once I assimilated, it was nice. :) I like the mix of head calculation and balancing win/loose. It especially gets tricky once there is more than 2 players! The time limit made it very difficult though, I wasn't able to win a single level. x) But it was a neat concept, with a clean presentation!

I've always wondered what it would be like to be on the other end of the table. It took me a few tries to get the hang of the game, but overall I enjoyed my time playing this game. I do like the delicate balance you have to do in order to make your quota, but not allow your players to quit. I'd like to see this game released as a full game, it has some serious potential with some snazzy music playing behind it.

Amazing and creative game! Sometimes it can be a little unfair, but incredibly fun!
A great idea, though being a cheating dealer is harder than I thought. With limited time and having to manage player rage and calculating what number to pick for players and dealer, it was quite a challenge.
Thanks for playing it. Yes, I think I made it a bit to difficult.
