This review just seems angry, as if the reviewer is pissed that there is such a popular game out there. I don't doubt there are people that dislike this game, but opening of the review states that he was looking for a casual/filler game - then he goes on to attack it for being a casual filler type game.

I don't really get that.

I also don't get the suggestion that there are no choices. Yes, the layout and direction of the game are largely dictated by luck, but you mitigate that by the decisions you make. What the other players are doing is vital to your decisions, as well. The fact that the reviewer totally missed what the major vital decision of the game is and believes the game can last over two hours leads me to believe something was going very wrong in his plays of the game.

Oh, just another note of something else wrong in the review - if you abandon Tokyo, you get a turn before the person you abandoned it to goes again ... The review makes it sound like the player can just turn around and kill you after abandoning.
