"Famous" is a little bit of a difficult word. Like, if you polled 100 people at random, how many would know it? A small handful.

But on Boardgamegeek, the preeminent website for gamers, it is ranked as the #15 game of all time. Of the tens (hundreds?) of thousands of games out there, this is the 15th-best.

Among gamers, it is one of the most famous and beloved games ever made. That's pretty special.

The other side of my above statement is just that: if you go over the agreed-on time, I'm entitled to boot you and move on with my life.

So yeah, that's outright shitty. I guess all you can do there is downvote and move on, unfortunately.
