If 5 is an average score, than a 6 means slightly above average which doesn't capture whether I'd recommend this game to others or not. It's almost not fair to compare it with a list full of strategy games, because for what it is, this is a fun game. And I've played it with 70 years olds and 6 year olds, so it has appeal across all ages. It's a simple concept, and does have a random draw element that affects how well a player scores, but when 75% of the tiles are played and you are staring at them in front of you, it becomes real difficult to identify all of your scoring options. This makes it challenging. If you prefer simpler games with a high replay value, I think Qwirkle fits the bill well.
