Possible to have more opportunities to Undo?

Post by lowziqian_frlcs »

Love this game and the implementation, however I would like to suggest some more opportunities to Undo to reduce errors.

A few I can think of are:
- Undo the choice of Tokyo/Kyoto walk AFTER placement (sometimes due to misclick, a wrong walk is placed in the wrong/unintended location);
- Final Undo after each round of card placement. Alternatively, instead of having the glowing red zone, have a depiction of the card you selected being placed in the indicated zone BEFORE you perform the final confirmation;
- Undo the choice of token moved with the wild token.

Thank you devs!

Yeah this game desperately needs an undo button. I can't count the number of times I forgot to spend a wild token or needed to keep the last walk flipped face down in order to achieve the goal for a day until I saw the red X pop up. If I haven't learned any secret information I should be able to correct that mistake.

Also the number of times I've accidentally taken a walk for the wrong region because of the tiny buttons on mobile or just carelessness and not realized until the card appeared on my board and it was impossible to undo.

I totally agree! I was playing on my small phone on a flight and realized the moment I pressed the “no wild tokens added” for a highlight of the day that it needed a single wild token that I had in order to score, but it was too late and cost me 8 points and the game.

No harm whatsoever in giving players an immediate take back before their next move.

I agree with you guys. It was annoying for me when I selected the wrong button of use wild token or not on small phone. As if it is no, there is no confirmation.
I am just thinking that after each move we can see other player’s move. So if we have undo, we need to confirm that we will not use the undo then we can see other player’s last move? :D
