This game really needs a confirm/undo feature at end of turn

[Geomicrobio]

I really prefer not to do that, some people is truly slow in their turn, with undo buttom games will be super long... awful!

IMO this game already has enough steps to Play a Card. No need for another confirmation.

I don't understand. Every time you play you need to first select a card to play, select the cards you want to use to pay, they become grey and then select "play card button". Every time you play you can check what you just did before validate, why would you need a confirm button? To confirm a second time?

If you've never accidentally clicked on something you didn't mean to, you're a very very rare exception.

I also think there is no need for an Undo / Confirmation button in this game. I can't remember a misclick in more than 90 games (all played on a computer), which couldn't already be corrected in the current configuration, as Palehorse66 has described. And I'd prefer not to slow down the game by such a button.

Maybe this is more a mobile issue?

I rarely play on mobile, and have had several games ruined for me because of the lack of confirm & undo.

I would be really happy about seeing this essential feature coming to Forest Shuffle.

In general, I also think this option should be available in every game of BGA. I am not saying that this should be a mandatory feature that cannot be disabled. It should just be an option that people can enable if they want to.

Regarding the reasoning that there is no need because you never misclick or that there are already enough steps: that's very cool that some players don't need it. But some players DO need it, for various reasons (as said: small mobile screens that can lead to misclick, better representation of the final situation, or other problems I can't think of). Why going against their need and comfort that don't impact the way other people play?

Regarding the reasoning that there is no need because the game is already long: nobody would have to use this option, it could be disabled by default. Absolutely no impact for players that want to play quickly without confirmation.

Regarding the reasoning that one pays better attention while playing this way: obviously not, otherwise nobody would have this problem, we wouldn't talk about it, the ticket wouldn't be opened and be upvoted. Also, this is not a game that people play mechanically, it's a game where you have to focus and think. But sometimes, even when you're focused, sh*t happens. And again, some players focus but don't have a good mental representation of the final situation, and shouldn't be excluded from playing the game for that.

Regarding the reasoning that this is more fun for some players this way: that's cool, but it's not fun for other players. Why should we favor one way over the other? Having this option available means that it would be fun for everybody, not just half (or even less) of the players.

While writing this, I am realizing that every forum has a "Preview" button same think essentially, but nobody would argue against this button...

I totally agree - but only up to the point for any action that is reversible and does not attempt to reverse where a card is taken from the stack and please set it to let us know the cards to be spent in paying for a card as I also have on occasion when looking at a card expanded view have accidently paid for a placement with the wrong cards.
Silly of me but sometimes seeing what is being bought and what is being used as paid isn't so clear.

Some of us have vision problems.
Some of us have movement problems.
Undo helps.

I personally like that it doesn't. Games can be long enough as they are

I don't understand how that relates. Nearly all games here have a confirm/undo option at the end of the turn, and as far as I can tell it doesn't add anything noticeable to the length of games. I suspect you may be talking about real time games, where the extra couple of seconds it takes for most turns might be annoying you? But that's no match for the frustration and ruined sense of fun that happens when someone knows they didn't make the move they wanted, and messed themselves up - something that would never happen in a real game, where people always let you say "oh oops I meant to do that not that".

Yes, and I'm very new to the game, and to BGA in general. I'm sure I'm a frustrating gaming partner, but when people keep quitting on me, I can't learn. I did get a premium membership, but it's not going to do me much good if I can't review my cards and think for a few seconds. I get that everyone else is already a shrewd master of the game - awesome. Can I play against an AI then? Or something? So I can get good enough to only need a few seconds to make a move?

I'd welcome a undo button or confirm. WHen playing on the iPad it's easy to make a mistake and touch the wrong part of the screen. People living with a motor control dissability may also appreciate this feature,
