Game Description
A little card game about trying to have a conversation with someone after losing your ability to speak the common language of man.

How does your game tie into the theme?
It's about the myth of the Tower of Babel, which is about a tower that reached very high in the sky and was considered an affront to God Himself.

I wasn't sure if there was a way to determine which cards are best to play, but because you could see the score before you played the cards I just tried every card until I had the passing score. I think it would have been interesting to make the player discover what scores well.

Developer

thank you for your reply.  that was kinda our intention but ran out of time. oof

Interesting and very original. But it's somewhat confusing. Took me a couple of rounds to notice that scores are multiplied rather than added. And understanding how to pair cards can be complicated when beginning the game For example, should you pair cards with other cards with similar concept (theme?) or languages? I notice that languages are graded higher when pairing rather than concept.

Developer

thanks for your reply. yea basically the closer the languages are  and the closer the words are, the more point you get. we also forgot to mention that the word god and the language Hebrew are wild cards. we were kinda just focused on a playable game and not really users instructions. so i appreciate you feedback.
