Game: Ingenious

Challenging, fun, head-scratching, infectious, irresistible, addictive... As acclaimed as ultra-prolific German board game designer and PhD in mathematics-possessing wunderkind Reiner Knizia's various works - like Amun-Re and Taj Mahal - are, casual user-friendly isn't a term you'd use to describe most. Happily though, as Ingenious - the latest virtual conversion inspired by said braniac's over 200 title-strong personal catalogue of creations - proves, one should never judge a book, or desktop diversion, by its cover.
