Steve Jackson Games Forums - View Single Post - My sister won't play because she says there are too many rules

I bought the game for my sister for Christmas. I've never played, I've only seen it played on Wil Wheaton's show. At first she seemed kind of excited, but then she read the rulebook and decided there were "too many rules".

Now I feel like she'll probably never play it, because of the work she thinks is involved in learning how.

Is it as difficult to learn as she thinks? The instruction pamphlet does seem a little scary about contradictions between rules and cards - I have to admit I'm not enthusiastic about trying to figure it out, either.
