What happens if it's not a face card? I feel like I'm missing something beyond "flip coins as fast as you can."

if you open the door to take the card at the top of the pack, if it’s a face card you follow the face card rules, if it’s just a number card you take it. If you don’t open a door you discard the top card without looking at it. 

The goal is to have as many cards (treasure/stuff) as possible by the end of the 10 minutes 




sorry for the terrible screenshooting I’m doing this from my phone!


thank you for trying the game, I’ll see if maybe there’s a clearer way to explain that part of the game. So thank you so much for your feedback!

I think you may just need to spell out "each number card is one point" explicitly. It might be more interesting if (say) number cards were worth their value and you only had five "pockets" for gear, so you have a press-your-luck aspect.

See, this is why I like it when people comment. I think your idea of pockets is a great one, so you would have to discard cards to get new bigger numbered cards. That might be something a a longer than one page game could have, I'll have to consider this. lol. I'll see what I can do to change the way it's written to make it obvious.

thank you again!

I think you have room to say: "Number cards represent salvage. Your space-truck can only hold five pieces of salvage, but you can discard one whenever you like. When you decide to stop or the timer runs out, sum the values of your number cards to get your score."
