Review: (All the games I mention here are Reiner Knizia games. He's an ex-banker with a PHD in mathematics, made his money by 30 and dedicated himself to game design. He's reknowned in the gaming world for his genius designs. Simple rules, involved but not brain-burning play, social and high funfactor.) I prefer to give 3 star ratings even if it's a five star product because it's where the wiser heads go to get their product info and fair and balanced appraisals, but for that I would need flaws to knock off stars. The only nitpick is that the box could have been even smaller, but it's already small just not as small as Kariba or the purer card games (Art Robbery has a bunch of tokens). As a light and fluffy social game of groans and laughs, Art Robbery is excellent. It's not brainless and there are some meaningful tactics but also plenty of chaos of the best kind rather than the random kind (like the good but random feeling Sakura, which I don't recommend but kids love). The Knizian twist to the scoring is rather like High Society, but unlike High Society it's not an auction game (which I'm not much into) and there is no play angst/pain (which I'm also not much into). It's been a quite brilliant introduction to modern board gaming for families I've played with, and who can see the 'family bliss' factor and feel that pleasant social buzz that is such a good substitute for alcohol. Having said that, the game-play (and rulesbook) is sufficiently light I think that this is one of the few games that could go with alcohol (boardgames are usually incompatible with boozing) at least after the first game. Social games (Catan, Ticket to Ride, Monopoly etc) are very sensitive to player numbers. This game is not much good at 3 players, but it's alright if you've nothing else to do. It should be played with 4 or 5; 4 for more meaningful tactics, 5 for more chaos or when introducing. Remember to nail the rules, and re-read them after your first game.
