At this point I’ve played enough games to realize the overwhelming amount of mermaid drops in the first ~20 cards. Probably part of the design to make online games more exciting but is extremely frustrating especially from a transition from in person to BGA. Please keep me in check if I’m overthink...

This is why I don't like Extra Pepper, deliberately staying behind to keep an OP event is too powerful and there isn't much you can do to counter it at 2 player other than also try to lose. I wish there was a house rule that said you have to be 10+ points behind the leader to keep an event.

Came here to post this myself. This pepper extension needs to go. It makes the game not fun. Every game turns into who can tank early to get the better event cards wins in the end.

I think the seahorse would be more balanced if it didn't work with the anchor.

There is no risk on the other hand to taking ...

The scores being hidden has nothing to do with premium, it's just a game option that the host can enable. If it's on then nobody (not even premium users) can see the score until the end.

If this is the first game you played then it's because you died in combat, any rewards from that combat are discarded if you die.

Managed it with Flayed, having lots of shield is a massive help against the boss. Giving Serenade a lot of the attack cards you find helps as well because their starting deck is awful. If possible you want to play a discard in the previous fight that lets Serenade use their freeze because it means t...

Could it just be this player doesn't like to announce Last Chance until they have 10+ points?

I too believe there are people cheating. Who starts ignoring a mermaid in the discard pile? What are the chances the same player that ignored the mermaid always had a swimmer+shark at the 2nd turn on every round of the game? Many times I've seen players drawing the sea horse every round. There is s...
