...golden rule throughout the game, I had fun. I hunted targets, made alliances, and for much of the game was the top assassin before finally losing to the eventual game winner. The most rewarding part of playing Assassin was after the game ended when I was left with a host of friendships from my targets, alliances and teammates that have outlasted the game itself...
