It seems I don’t understand how telescope works

Post by HolyTispoon »

I have 17 points and 3,4,5,5 in my forecast. I activate the dogma of Telescope (age 4), return a 5 to the top of its deck and was expecting to achieve the 3. Yet it tells me that I don’t meet the requirements to achieve any of the cards.
This is the game:

Can someone help me understand? Thanks.

Hard to replay a game that's in progress, but on your current move, you have an achievement for age 3.

The way multiple achievements of the same value work is that the score requirement increases linearly with each one. So the first 3 you're eligible for takes a minimum score of 15, the second a minimum score of 30, the third a minimum score of 45, etc.

Otherwise, a card like chopsticks would be insanely broken the moment one had 5 points.
