For Friday Night 5: this section keeps the answer short before you dig into the details.
Works for 5: Native. Setup difficulty: 3/5. Progression risk: Medium.
Multiplayer notes
Good fit for larger groups, but the server model deserves a warning badge because it is not casual-host simple.
Hosting notes
Server settings and world control matter more here than in a lightweight co-op game.
Progression notes
Base progression and castle upkeep make long gaps between sessions more noticeable.

Why the page separates them
Storefront data says what the store claims. The internal review layer is what the app trusts when deciding whether the game works for a 5-8 player group.
