Most required skills?

[joyoy]

Hi. Gamme Logic is easily my favorite game..and I'm interested what you think are the most important skills for it?
Especially from those who know Gamme Logic well. It is meant that you give scores from 0 to 10 (10 being the highest importance) -- ideally with short explanations for each category

*logical intelligence
*spatial intelligence
*intuition
*power of imagination
*reaction time
*fast/precise clicking
*patience
*luck

here is what I think so far:

logical intelligence 9/10 .. a basic part. seeing where pieces can be placed or not - even with many interdependent clues the higher the logical intelligence is.

spatial intelligence 6/10 .. not as impactful, but helpful especially in Jungle with lots of places and directions.
when I include having a clear view here, the score increases to 8,5/10 .. to see a large part of the field and the clues is valuable for speed as well as correct solves.

intuition 8/10 .. connected to game experience - it is essential for me, gets you very far (in hard+extreme) especially for being fast. but not consistently reliable for complete solves.

imgination 7.5/10 .. important especially in harder levels. makes you approximately see where the solution goes and have less wrong/futile attempts. can be to some degree compensated by other skills.
related: thinking speed 6.5/10 .. always kind of important. can max out the effect of the other skills.

reaction time 3/10 .. it applies in every puzzle, but only slightly, especially in hard/extreme

fast/precise clicking 6.5/10 .. always helps in easier levels; in others at least a bit. the more equal the other criteria, the more important it gets.

patience 4/10 .. if only hard/extreme levels were considered, the score would be much higher (though the actual dominant skill might be others like imagination). in my impression looking at the puzzles and thinking a bit for the best/correct moves is underappreciated. the more proficient you become there, the less attempts you will need on harder puzzles long term, consistently.

luck 3/10 .. with the feature of automatic solution evaluation, it is not insignificant - to just 'randomly' hit a correct solution early (part of it might be thanks to intuition). still, the better player will win a single match much more often, let alone a series of matches.

In my opinion , due to the fact that the answers of most easy and normal puzzles can be spotted directly without much thinking , players’ reaction time ( to analyze the clues instantly after seeing them ) , their experience ( to know the common ways in solving a certain kind of puzzles , such as difficulties and universes , and have a sense for some common types of answers ) , as well as flexibility of their fingers ( thumbs or index fingers depend on your preference ) ( to click the pieces on the boards quickly and precisely ) are the most crucial things for playing lightning fast in easy and normal puzzles ( especially for easy ) ( in fact , the fastest group of players on BGA can reach 4 seconds in average consistently in games ) .

On the other hand , for hard and extreme puzzles , I think joyoy’s opinions are quite reasonable . I am relatively bad at hard/extreme , so I have nothing to add on . Usually I just keep trying different combinations randomly until the auto-validation system confirms my answers .

Reaction time: So im a slow processor and sometimes i lose up to 2 seconds at the start just, idk, realising im supposed to read the clues? Try and reach 3 seconds in easy that way. Reaction time is super high in easy.

Precision: You may notice typos as you read on. My fingers are unprecise, often hurt and are sometimes half paralized. Thats when i get those 15bsecs on an easy one instead if 5 secs.

Skills forgotten:
- discrimination. Sometimes i mistake a hotel color, a monster or an animal for another one. Then good luck finding your mistake when youve started off the wromg foot.

Eye movement efficiency: the ability to look at the next clue while placing the previosu bird/animal/momster - without misplacing said bird/animal/monster! When i do manage to do that id say im twice as fast on the easier levels.
