Clarity: Everything was easy to understand which was great for this quick little game. It let me get to the game faster by providing good understanding of the rules.
Graphics: The two pictures in the rulebook are perfect. They explain the few things that really could use a good visual example and they do so very well.
Depth: This definitely covers everything you need, from ties to unique scoring possibilities. I never found myself not knowing what to do next.
Writing: Everything has that nice professional feel you look for when reading a rulebook. The rulebook is lacking in typos and grammar errors, but what is particularily cool about this is how most of these were removed do to people giving suggestions onBoardGameGeek here.
