Howdy!
1. Yep, that only starts with the Ace of Hearts. Some playthroughs go roughly. This is a highly lethal game.
2. Only if you draw the aces and 8s on the same hand. Otherwise it would basically be inevitable.
Glad you dig it!
Excellent, thank you so much! Is there any place to like, share our written journals in the end? It's an interesting idea!
