I bought a bunch of these cards last year, and I've never played anything more complicated than Go Fish. No Magic or anything, but these looked rather pretty. AND I've tried several times to learn to play it, and it just turns into a big headache every time. Granted I'm no good with game instructions, and the online guide is a big help, but I'm really beginning to think I'm bringing the wrong philosophy to the table- is this the sort of game where you have one deck, YOUR deck, which you know intimately and can only really play against other players that also have their own decks which they know as well? Was I off on the way wrong foot buying two starter decks for whoever I wanted to play with?
