How long does this game take to play?

The box says one hour and for once it seems to be quite correct amount of time for those who are relatively new to the game. Experienced players will get a game down to 45 minutes.

Yes, max time does seem to be around 1 hour with new players.

I have taught this to 3 new players a few times and 1 hour seems to be the correct target time.

Veteren players can be between 30 to 45 minutes.

Most of my games have been 2 player games between 20 - 30 minutes.

I ahve played several times and have yet to go over 45 minutes, even when teaching new players.

Agreed. Roughly one hour or less.

Yeah it also depends on who you are playing with, some people take forever deciding what to do and end up making the game an extra hour! But i guess that is the case with most games. I will say that one of the nicest things about it is the two minute set up, major plus
