I actually ended up enjoying this game, even though I'm not very good at it. I think the best part is how it goes on for a long time. You are really able to develop strategy. I'm not even sure how I lost sometimes. At least I did better the second time.
It's much harder than it seems. Even the short version is pretty difficult. It did kind of drive me mad. Okay, that was a lame pun. It's worth looking at, even though it's hard.
