Although the question was probably directed at the OP, I'd say (like the BGG game page tells us) that the optimal # of players is 4-5. With 3 there are too few characters in play each turn, and with 6 or more the game drags. I'd not agree with the OP about playing in under 60 mins unless everyone has played a lot.I haven't tried playing to less buildings, but I imagine it could unbalance some parts of the game.
