Suggestion: add "last turn alert activation"

Post by Gabrieles Zinn »

Hello everyone and thanks to the developers and the editor to bring this game here!

It would be super useful, in the last part of the match, to have an alert when you are activating the last turn, highlighting that is going to be your last move. Something similar to Azul.

Thanks for reading!

It does give an alert that the last round has been triggered, but I also get confused sometimes thinking that means I only have one action left. I just lost a game because I basically threw away what I thought was my last action, when I could have built and enclosure AND placed an animal before the game ended.

That IS what it means. After someone triggers the end of the game, everyone else has one action left. Unless you have something that lets you play extra actions (like determination or a multiplier), you only get 1 last action.

I looked at the replay of the last game you lost, and when it showed the end game notification, you only had 1 more action, so I'm not sure what you're referring to.

It may not have been the LAST game I lost (I lose a lot haha). I'll see if I can find it. I know which opponent it was. Thanks!

This was the game: https://boardgamearena.com/gamereview?table=393597842

Not sure why I had several actions after the end was triggered.

Thanks for me linking the game (and sorry you lose a lot 😂).

Looks like you had a multiplier token on your sponsor card that let you play it twice. :)

Agreed - towards the end of the game, I often forget to check my score before ending my turn, triggering the end of the game before intended. It would be great, if when you are the one triggering the end of the game, there would be a warning on the "commit" action.
