Faster Speed Level in Puerto Rico

Post by Epikur »

Hi

Is it possible to make a feature in Puerto Rico so you can set time yourself as you want it?

Because now the level "Fast" is very too slow.

Kind regards

No game technically forces a player to take a set amount of time to make a move, they just allow a certain time before giving a penalty. Turn-based no time limit games can be completed with each player taking turns within 2 seconds of each other.

I'd love to see an ultra-fast level for 6 Nimmt! 3 min start, +30 sec per move.

Absolutely, the time limits don't force a player to move, but it helps :)

I will grant that an ultra-fast mode (for all games) would be interesting. Making rapid decisions is one method for training to make better decisions.

In professional chess you have something called Lightning-chess (or 1 min chess).
The focus is to get players to enhance there intuitive skills.
I think many players could benefit from this in different board games.
And I would love to have the possibility to play with the time and find out what works best.
Please consider it BGA..
