Pros & Cons
Pros
Jack is a top notch two player game. Its small footprint makes it a game that can be played almost anywhere. The game is phenomenal, easy to carry around since the box is quite small.
The rulers are simple and clear. Simple to understand and setup. Instructions are well-explained and straightforward.
The tokens, tiles and cards are all nice and thick and durable. The components are great quality nice thick tokens and cards which are made of cardboard along with the tiles for the game.
Each turn consists of not only choosing your own move, but guessing what the other player is going to do. For instance, there are token that count down how many turns are left in the game.
Jack is a game that involves deduction and a bit of luck. There is enough of an element of luck to give the less strategic thinker a fighting chance. The only big downside is it only handles two players.

Depending on who youre playing with the other possible downside is that this is heavier on strategy than luck so younger players may have a hard time winning
