Pipeline remains one of my all time family board games. My ex and I used to bring this with us to friends houses and it was almost instantly addictive. Unfortunately I lost my copy when we split and it has taken me nearly 5 years to find a copy.

The game is very fast paced, with four players it takes about 15 - 20 minutes to play out a game. The two things I would suggest are

1) If you have a plug, HOLD on to it as long as possible. Nothing is better than letting your opponent commit to a strategy and then plugging it up.

2) Save those u-bends. They are LIFE SAVERS
