Also I would maybe give some general advice for first time players for what they should try to do in their first game before trying more advanced strategies.\n\nOtherwise it was interesting, took about 20-30 minutes to setup and start maybe playing (I wasn't keeping time). Overall I enjoyed it.","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"disperse","author_uid":"1001731","time":"2020-04-21T23:28:07Z","epoch":1587511687,"modified":1587511687,"text":"I played a solo game and will try to get a 2-3 player game together with my family later. I ended up saving the father and grandfather but losing the mother and child. I also won my secret objective handily: I was supposed to get 20 research points on one station and ended up being able to put two spare cards on a station last turn and got 27. It seems like Education will end up putting a card in the trash, delayed by one turn, with the benefit of a better roll next round. A roll of a 3 doesn't actually clean up the trash, only keeps the number the same. So the trash number only goes up, correct? I love that you've brought a physical game to a digital space, well done!","likes":2,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"alferbayter","author_uid":"1078134","time":"2020-04-22T07:40:42Z","epoch":1587541242,"modified":1587541242,"text":"@disperse a roll of let's say 3 and 5 should reduce the trash by 1 as one of the researchers in your hand is used to clean it (so both that researcher and one trash go into the discard pile) and the other researcher can be added to a lab.\n\nYup putting a researcher into education guarantees that next turn at least on card will be added to the trash... But it also makes it more likely that you can add that researcher to a lab :)\n\nThanks for playing!","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"disperse","author_uid":"1001731","time":"2020-04-22T14:44:13Z","epoch":1587566653,"modified":1587566653,"text":"@alferbayter Ahh, that makes sense and also makes the game easier.

Love the concept. I'm thinking that it might be possible to further streamline the way the rules are written, since the three piles that the cards are initially split into are then re-made in the first few steps without any choices made by the players\u2014feels like we could just cut out the middleman there. Still, the game itself feels well-designed and thought-out\u2014I guess the next step is to make a video game simulator of it and put it online somehow! :)","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"cheesepencil","author_uid":"1143012","time":"2020-05-11T16:02:37Z","epoch":1589212957,"modified":1589212957,"text":"I did my best but it was a little confusing - a couple sample rounds or simplified walkthrough would have helped a lot.
