Be forewarned, the game can go quite long as mathematically, there is no guarantee it will halt.

It can also be quite frequently won on the first turn.

By first turn, he means "first play around the table".
If you get a play 3 or play all out in the first turn, and someone else has 2 keepers that match a goal card, someone can then win by playing all three.

In Monty Python Fluxx, you can play "Play All," use "Bring Out Your Dead" to get rid of all your cards except for "The Cheese Shop" which you then play to win.

But as a player there are many things you can do to ensure that it ends quickly (draw 4, play all, let's do that again, take another turn). You might not always be the beneficiary but the game will be over shortly.
I'm a fan of the zombie version, which is a hoot.
