it's been a minute since that round, so i my memory might be a bit foggy about the Cellular Shopper bug. the previous turn that happened, that same AI actually ended up obtaining the Cellular Shopper item. i don't remember exactly which space on the board but from memory, they were somewhere near the top left portion of the board.
something interesting as well, the ai fixed itself when reloading the turn, not by actually using the item the way it's supposed to be used, but rather by waiting a whole turn later to use it instead. so maybe it was some sort of ai mix-up that caused the ai to change its mind midaction? i don't know, the bug is weird.

coming by to report a couple of softlocks i encountered:
1. on the Toad's Midway Madness board, an ai player was forced onto my space by the happening space that pushes the players on the road to a certain point on the board. since it was in the last five turns, this caused the game to try and start a duel minigame between me and the ai, however the ai literally had nothing. no stars, no coins, nothing. so the duel couldn't be initiated. for some reason, this sequence of events caused the game to just kinda stop progressing. i had to reload the turn in order to fix it, but it turns out this wasn't a one time bug because to my surprise it happened again immediately after reloading the turn! thankfully i reloaded the turn again and the sequence of events listed above didn't happen, allowing the game to progress.
2. on the Bowser's Pinball Machine board, an ai player used the Shop Call item and...just kinda sat there when asked to buy something. it literally just didn't do anything. unlike the last softlock, i have no idea why this happened, but thankfully all i had to do was reload the turn, and thankfully he decided not to even use the Shop Call that turn.
great game btw! can be really fun, even by yourself!
