tutorial was a bit confusing and lacking. cancel to continue is a...choice. and one that took me a bit to figure out. colors arent explained well. they are mentioned, but not explicitly. i tried to revisit it, but the tutorial didnt work a second time. i had no idea what was going on in the first date. what was interrupting? how to avoid that? what color am i matching to? what color are my cards? how do i get cards? what is the meter in the corner? how good is each play? is matching color or number better?
this is what a tutorial is there for. i should not have fundamental questions about the games mechanic after exiting the tutorial. it should answer those questions. im being thrown in the deep end. i did figure most of this out in one round, but still. why have a tutorial, if it isnt gonna teach me how to play?
damn the game is hard. maybe im not understanding something, but sometimes i dont have any options to respond and have to reset by just playing a card.
chelsea was pretty easy, alec had me losing my mind, i got super lucky with amelia and got two 4x plays which gave me the win.
ultimate alec. oh boy. first of all i dont understand the meter. playing 2x plays wouldnt increase my meter. i had him to 70%, then he just kept talking. i had to interrupt him at 30% cuz he just wasnt stopping. and then i just couldnt gain meter no matter what. i tried again and the second time he didnt even give me a chance to answer before my meter ran out, LIKE WHAT. HOW IS THAT FAIR? i never got a chance. what rng fest is this? so you need to hope for perfect cards for 4x plays and need to hope he stops talking at some point, otherwise you lose.
on my third run i finally got him. it took some good luck, with him never talking for too long, and me often having a color and number match to gain lots of meter.
on another note. every other person sends one message that can be viewed. upon losing to ultimate alec he sends you 2 messages, you can only view one. upon winning he sends you 4 messages, you can only view one. kinda an odd detail to have a message count, have only one character send multiple messages and also not be able to view those messages.
pretty good and fun game. the tutorial needs some work, as i am still unsure of some mechanics. the game is pretty rng heavy, especially ultimate alec, which leads to vastly different experiences. alec was a hard match for me, as i couldnt get good plays. amelia was a pushover due to getting perfect plays twice. luck determined more than anything the difficulty. but still, the strategy of playing the right cards fast enough was fun to learn.
