Fluxx is the perfect go-to game if you want something fast-paced, fun and easy to learn. Because the explanation and basic rules of the game are so simple, I've found that it's equally fun for brand-new players as for those who've played it before. Everything is explained on each card, so you can give very minimal instructions to new players and they'll pick it up easily. We usually use this as a warm-up game on game nights with friends and family, before moving on to more strategy-based games.
Since I mentioned strategy, I will give you one word of caution: this is not a game for those who are looking for something with elaborate strategy and get frustrated when the plan they've been working on for several rounds either doesn't work out or backfires. The nature of the game is to be ever-changing, so you have to be willing to go with the flow. You can have some strategy, of course, but you have to be willing to see it blow up in front of you in seconds--and then laugh about it!
A word about this version of the game: in my opinion, this particular version is best played when you're playing with fans of Sci Fi. This version is based around references to popular sci-fi film and television series (Star Wars, Star Trek, Dr. Who, etc.), and really I think it's funniest when you understand the references. It is playable with people who don't know their Sci Fi, but I don't think it's as much fun for them. Also, because of the special powers of some cards in the game it is a slightly more complex version of Fluxx than others--I wouldn't start anyone out with this unless they're playing with others that have played it before.
Pillage is a separate rule card. So the 'guns' card only protects against that particular rule card, not from stealing (such as Wash being able to 'steal' Serenity".
Only two creeper cards, so you can change another card (such as a weird rule card you don't like) if you really want another creeper, especially a creeper with no win condition. Really wish they would have had 3 or even an optional 4th. Would be great when playing with 3-6 players to have at least one more.
The game rules are quick and easy to learn. Basically follow instructions on cards. When you play a new goal, discard the old one (unless you have the rule requiring two goals in play). Remember to draw or discard according to the new rules played even during your turn or other players' turns. This is where things sometimes get messed up: if you place a new rule requiring hand limit 2 or something, then everyone discards down to two right away, not just the person taking their turn.
So basically draw cards and play cards and attempt to win according to the current goal in play. Plus it's always fun to slap down a new goal on your turn with winning conditions that match your keepers in play!
Great fun and each time playing is different! Very innovative! And the theme is great! I just wish they had some quotes on the character cards (keepers).
2.5 years later, this game is not played as often as the Batman version of the same game (similar but very different).
While I enjoy this version, I'd rather play the Batman version.

This game is a lot of fun. I have to admit that I didn't expect that, but was I pleasantly surprised and excited to be wrong.
The game works best when everyone understands how to play, as it can be a bit slow when there is someone new to the game. This makes sense though, as the rules of the game are always in "flux" (aptly named game).
The basis rules are:
Draw a card, play a card. That's it. Anyone can do that.
Eventually, other cards will get played that will add complexity and fun to the game. Some examples may be rules that change how many cards are drawn or must be played each hand. Others let you steal or switch cards with other players. Some provide goals. Without a goal, there is not a way to win the game. Don't get too excited about any particular goal that is played, as they can change from player to player. Don't worry, you can get them back.
The way to win is so simple: Have the cards the goal card says you need to win in play at the same time.
Of course it doesn't stay so simple. Other players change the goal in defense or offense based on what they/you have in play.
Be ready for the "surprise" cards which can be played at any moment, even out of turn. These can do things like cancel an action or a new rule or cancel a goal (thus preventing victory for another player).
It's a lot of fun, I highly recommend you try Fluxx in it's several iterations which are each different.
Top reviews from other countries
Esta es la versión que más recomiendo de Fluxx. Además, si te gusta la temática de ciencia ficción, este juego tiene referencias a varias películas y series del género.
Si vas a jugar con niños recomiendo más la versión de Fairy Tale Fluxx.
With plenty of geek culture references, the geeks will enjoy it, while other players will happily enjoy the fast mechanics of the game.
The learning curve is small, takes only about 1 game for newcomers to become familiar.
New players that are not used to this type of games were a bit reticent at first but after a few games, discovering the multitude of surprises the game play offers, they would not want to stop playing it!
I recommend it as a great casual game for everybody to enjoy!
