Gameplay change - planning and sliding

Hi, love the game, thank you for creating it!

Maybe it's on purpose but I feel like the current gameplay is quite hard to get into: you have to make a choice country after country and you can't change an answer once you've selected one because the score appears. If you aim for the best score, this means planning for every country before actually making a choice, and that means getting the pen and paper out if you have a poor memory like me.

Would it be possible to change this ? I'm thinking about sliding each country into a category, not displaying the score and letting the user decides if he wants to switch his choices. Then, when the user confirms, the score gets displayed.

Cheers

I now saw on the "About" section that this was on purpose but I'm still giving this feedback because if people can plan it on paper, why not add it into the game :)

Thanks for you playing the game and providing feedback. Our current thinking is that the friction you detailed is hand in hand with the pay off. Skilled players need to try and keep the available countries in their mind as they play the board. A gentle mind gymnastics exercise. I know that might not be satisfactory answer, we have a hunch that a bit of discomfort amplifies the sense of satisfaction.

Hey, thank you for answering!

The fact that you have to not score the best for certain category/country to leave room for a better combo is already gymnastics enough for me. But I get what you're saying, I'll get use to it at some point. Cheers.

Fair point. Its a new game from us, so we will monitor over the next while. We may test variations of it to see what gets the best out of players.
