Glad to be able to play the game here. One thing that bugged me was the colored numbers on cards are easy to mix.

Thank you for this game!

I really don't understand the rules. On this game: https://boardgamearena.com/archive/repl ... 1;&goto=24

I could play my green 9 and sum a total of 20, but my opponent claims the rock with theirs 19. How that can be possible?

Here, it's the same, I already have a sum of 14 on the board, but he wins the rock with a value of only 11.

Great questions!
There's a player aid at the bottom left and it ranks the best set of 3 cards. Your opponent won those stones because they have a color set and that beats a sum alone

Yeah. It would be a completely different game strategically if only the sum mattered.

Thank you for your answers. I thought color set were only "consecutive cards", like 123, 456 or 567. Not 147 or 269.

Anyway, I had another game with the opposite situation and I didn't win the rock either. I created a post on the game forum for better discussion: https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=45147

Disappointing to see that there's no tutorial at launch though. You've done great work to ensure that most launch titles have a tutorial, I hope that continues.
If you're interested in Video-style Tutorial, I have made one for Schotten Totten(BGA specific) so that you can start playing right away. Here's the link https://youtu.be/80AyFTpqYdQ
