Fun idea, decent price, terrible design. I don't play those games*, so I'll pass but there's definitely a market for them and I think it's a clever idea.
*Instead, we usually play a game called 'Henry Clarkson'; it's Jack-Change-It with the F-U rules (any mistake, pick up 2 cards, Ace of hearts pick up 5, 2 of hearts on Ace of Hearts; pick up 7 etc.) except you also have 10 seconds only to think of a celebrity whose first name starts with the same letter as the previous celebrity's last name (like, I say Danny Elfman, you say Eric Morcombe, next person says Michelle Rodriguez etc.).
If the 10 seconds run out, you play your card then pick up 2. You cannot say the same celebrity twice in a game, or in any subsequent game played in a row. A celebrity is anyone with a Wikipedia entry (you can choose whether stubs count or not).
If you name a serial killer, everyone has to cheer and say 'serial killer bonus!'. If they don't, they have to pick up 2.
Why is it called 'Henry Clarkson'? The first time we played it, one of my friends couldn't think of an 'H' name, and someone whispered 'Henrik Larsen' (Danish soccer player), who he'd never heard of and so misheard as 'Henry Clarkson' and offered that as an answer. We named the game thus, lest he ever forgot.
I whole-heartedly recommend it.
