I picked up and played Ript Revenge with my kids this past weekend and had a blast! A well balanced game that's good for light-hearted casual play. My youngest's favorite play on me was "can't say a word the entire hole" followed by "must drive with a mini".
Ript Revenge is SO much more balanced than the original RIPT. Plus in Revenge every card that you play affects another person instead of yourself. There's a couple cancel cards, but everything in there changes the game for the other person. In RIPT there were cards that were dependant on you doing something bad (like going OB, above 2-meters, etc). The new version is much, much cooler!
Yea I definitely like the new version better. It's a lot of fun playing it in doubles format.
