While I like the concept of the game, I find the amount of key words and rules to juggle cumbersome and my GF was unable to get a handle on what to do.

What's your experience with sticking with the game? Any tipps that helped you internalize the gameplay?

PS I've already tried in solo but it's even more fiddly that way.

How is it for re-learning after a break? Does it "internalize" well or do you find yourself having to consult the rulebook whenever you get back into it?

For example RFTG or Mottainai can be difficult to get into at first but I have no trouble jumping right back in even if I haven't played them for a while.

I think since we have it we played it at least twice a month (even more so after we now got Legends too), so can't really tell for longer breaks. I played Roll for the Galaxy, not Race, but had the same experience there you described about getting back easily after a longer break. I would imagine it similarly for Imperium, but guess thats also a personal thing.
