I don't understand the tent game, no matter how I arrange my guys the other side always pulls harder and takes the chest anyway, what am I missing?
If your guys outnumber the other guys they'll win the chest. If you're desperate for a few points, you can just pile all your guys in a single row! You won't win the game that way, but you'll at least get a single chest...
Don't be ashamed to replay the tutorial too, if you don't understand it! They walk you through how to arrange your guys to win the game. The hard part is doing it with time pressure!
