We've had this a little while and played it a few times as a family... it's really fun as a family and given there are four of us in this house that love AC, it's a really fun addition to our game collection. It is just like any other board game, except for the bonus of being AC related... I can see how it wouldn't be very enthralling playing as a single player, but if you can find a couple of fellow AC friends to play it with, it is actually really good... and the Amiibo are pretty adorable
