Thanks for playing! <3
Regarding the cards I didn't do a great job of explaining the mechanic in the game. If you have one card with the text "A B X" and "A B Z" the A and B refers to the same word. As you notice in the beginning of the game you have very limited outcomes, basically "PLAYER BULLET INCREASE" and "PLAYER BULLET DECREASE". You can now deduce that symbol A probably refers to a PLAYER and symbol B to "BULLET". Now you need to connect the increase to a symbol and decrease to a symbol and then as the game progress more outcomes are added which are a mix of symbols you've seen and decoded and new symbols you need to figure out what they mean.
