As a person who never understood poker I found this game surprisingly easy to undestand. But it is hard to be able to read short-term quests while playing. Overall game is great!
I did run into this issue as well, tried to mitigate it by moving the objectives to the center of the screen but I agree, it can get overwhelming. With the cooldowns from doing actions I had hoped to slow the pace down a bit though, maybe back to the drawing board haha
