I didn't source the product, but I did play the game with the expansion pack. We've got a board game group that enjoys new stuff, and this product was well-received. It's a lot of fun for the most part.
Couple quips I noticed - playing with just the original version without the expansion means there's a couple of strategies you can employ that are somewhat cheap and optimal. The expansion balances this and makes it Dominion-esque, where only 10 unique cards are available for purchase each time.
Playing with 5 people is actually a bit slow/sluggish, much like playing Dominion with 5-6 makes it a slog. The expansion adds a lot of counterplay, but some of the establishments can make it frustrating (and impossible) to get back into the game if you're behind.
I had the most fun with 3-4 people playing the game. It's pretty easy to pick up, so definitely worth a shot if you like deck building games with a bit of dice rolling luck.
