Good adaptation, glad to see it here. This model makes fidgety pieces manageable and subtle interferences between cards is there. Can the game be trained not to wait if the opponent has no card that can interfere with actions?

Came here to say this. It's starting to get a bit annoying... Apart from that it's a great adaption of one of my favourite games!

Thank you to anyone who worked on bringing this here and out of Alpha. I bought the game after playing here and have introduced more than a few people to it.

This implementation is intentional, or else you would know for sure whether someone couldn't interfere as opposed to chose not to interfere. This situation is not unique to this game. They did implement the suggestion for when you have zero cards and obviously cannot interfere (although someone recently reported a bug relating to that situation).

Absolutely love this game and so happy to see it on BGA after being out for so long. Alas the rules should state that you are not allowed to play unless you have watched All The Presidents Men and The Plumbers.

Why was this announcement post written by AI? Was that really necessary?
