The Inside Scoop on Gaming

Illuminati; the name alone brings back memories. Some of us are old enough to remember when Steve Jackson first released Illuminati, and others look at you and go "huh?".

Illuminati: New World Order is a good deal similar to the original Illuminati, but with a few new twists. No longer is it a shared deck, it is now a collectible card game (ack). Each player can build his or her own decks and challenge thier friends to take over the world. A typical game can last anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours, but is fun no matter how long it lasts. And instead of Megabucks (I think thats what they were...) we get Illuminati Tokens.

If you are tired of magic and the other games and want some fun, try Illuminati: New World Order (INWO). Or if you are just looking for something do to, try INWO. Even if you don't like card games, reading the text and quotes will make you laugh.
