On my first playthrough I didn't really read anything and was slightly confused, but it was still playable. Only then did I read the description and was like OH that makes so much more sense. and yup the goblin guy mirrors what I did. Very fun game. Couldn't beat it sadly, I keep forgetting what the guys do, nevermind what I did last round..
The thing I'm still not too sure about is why 2 moves are always set to "used"?
Anyway good work had some fun, I did keep replaying it so that's a good sign.
