I've been using it for a couple months now, it's been a very nice experience.

I definitely get the concern, it does not have any real replayability, being puzzles that you destroy as you play. I remember us talking about the price to playtime ratio after the first game, and deciding that it was "cheaper than going to the movies, and more enjoyable". For us it's like a treat, we usually buy one when we go to the board game shop, we're excited about it on our way home, and we finish it that evening.

This was our third exit game, we've been getting the same nominal difficulty. We're a bit more familiar with the common tricks now, and we finish the game a bit faster, but every game has something different and interesting, the individual puzzles have pretty consistently nice quality, so it's still very enjoyable to play.

Bought an Exit game and Aeons End Legacy of Gravehold. Played the exit game first day, but we're going to go through a few sessions of other games we own before we dive into the Legacy game.

Currently in the middle of Intrepid, playing as Canada and Russia.

Managed to play some SkyTeam while waiting at the airport, it was great. Finishing up our second Sleeping Gods campaign today.

spoiler for Tides of Ruin expansionwe got to the underworld but couldn't figure out how to get out, luckily we timed it so that the game ends right after we explored everything
Not sure what we'll play next. I'm thinking Robinson Crusoe or Intrepid.

I've wanted to pick the game up a few times, but kept ending up buying something else, sometimes there's a game we were more excited about, or something suited our budget better... I'd love to see more on the topic

We got SkyTeam last October. It's a two player, limited communication game where each person has four dice to play on the game board.

After about a dozen sessions, we had to look up a rule and noticed that we were supposed to take turns placing one die each, we've been placing all four at a time... Some other rules are making much more sense now too 🤦

Started the Stanley parable, haven't gotten far yet, but it's rather interesting.

Was playing Sleeping gods for two weeks but put it away to make room for visiting friends. Haven't pulled it back out yet due to some life stuff. Going on holidays next week so I'm looking forward to getting some SkyTeam going (maybe on the plane)

Sleeping gods with SO. Been waiting for the local shop to restock Tides of Ruin for our second play-through, and they finally did two weeks ago. Having a great time this week.

It's been so long that I'd forgotten the name of the game, turns out I got it confused with a game with extremely similar mechanics, only realised today when I found the sequel to the game I played. The game that I've played and loved is called Lapse. It's free on Google Play store.

Let me know if you do. Haven't ever done any game dev, but I'm mostly a programmer, so maybe I can help with it.

[–] Panties@lemmy.ca 1 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Yes, probably because it's a port. I mostly find games through pc/console...

Come to think of it, ever played reigns? It's a roguelike series, the games have similar game mechanics but different settings. They can be played easily with one hand because you make decisions by swiping cards left or right, and at least the one game that i played had pretty interesting story.
