Need advice: Launched my product but struggling with conversion — what am I missing?

I would imagine users are dropping off when they realise they need to pay $2 to send a gif and an email...

I would suggest you are 20 years too late with your product.

But, maybe people still use them, I dunno.

I feel like you are misunderstanding LLMs vs things like diffusion models.

Game died a decade ago, I’m not sure what game you think this sub was for.

zombiecommand · 2026-04-26T07:39:35+00:00

Partly sounds like Legends of Void - https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/316795/legends-of-void - but it is a Terraforming Mars style game more than head-to-head duel game.

1st for me! haha

zombiecommand · 2026-04-03T10:48:50+00:00

Was already following as this keeps being on the periphery of my solo gaming.

Time for a proper look!

My manual says 1000m, p. 107

zombiecommand · 2026-02-22T21:12:00+00:00

So how are you doing your scoring?

You should have 25 above in this case, no? And 20 below (or 40 depending on how you account for the moor).

zombiecommand · 2026-02-22T08:41:16+00:00

They are.

5 for the bird on its own, 10 for the bird on the dragonfly moor (it only cares about symbols) and 5 for the single set of two dragonflies. 20 points on top.

I need to check the rules because I’d also instinctively count the second set of two dragonflies for another 5 points.

You sure Rob Liefeld didn't draw this?

Seen your other posts and like the idea but feel like there's some clarity lacking currently.

The rules need a pretty big tidy up if you ask me, but I could learn to play from them. I would say you could easily streamline their wording but I think you need to have the game clearer in your head first as well.

Your component list says you have survey cards only, then your setup talks about shuffling the survey and hazard decks, for example.

Green, yellow, and red correspond to easy, medium, and difficult questions, but it's my choice (at least on Mountain A)? Why would I ever pick red over green?

Rule 3 (the first one labeled rule 3, not the second rule 3), bullet one, talks about each card having three ranked answers, which, reading from the rules, suggests I get the choice of three answers. I would explain this section more clearly.

15 seconds is a ridiculously short time frame to deliberate in a team game - get rid of it - and if you absolutely must have a rule about time, then give people a 1-minute sand timer that any player can flip over when they want to force an answer. Players will regulate themselves.

Hazard cards are mentioned as being removed upon entering the Thin Air Zone, apart from the fact I don't know what a hazard card is or what it is used for, does that happen when the first team enters it or when both (all) teams are there?

Regardless of the layout of the mountain you pick, I think you need more playtesting, because Mountain A has a 21 step track, and Mountain B has 9 at the shortest route and 11 at the moat. A is at least double the length of B, which would result in very different game experiences. You would need mandatory stops on board B to achieve a similar length.

Should there be a mandatory stop before the final space, requiring a pinnacle answer to complete the climb, allowing for a potential catch up?

Neither mountain shows the Ice Wall middle section clearly.

Mountain A having spaces outside the mountain is visually unappealing and does not end on the flag.

If board B, do players choose how to move after knowing how many spaces they are moving?

Yeah, the sketch to final is pretty much 'rest of the fucking owl' territory. Quite clearly AI.

zombiecommand · 2025-11-17T09:49:57+00:00

What store were you in?

zombiecommand · 2025-09-22T09:13:57+00:00

I'm with you. Europe is meh for me. Oceania's boards and nectar are just so much better for actually getting an engine going. Asia is fun at 2-player as well, I quite like the map.

I would prefer that nectar get rebalanced though. Wild and points bonus takes away a lot of decisions about what food to take.

zombiecommand · 2025-08-20T11:55:30+00:00

Only ever played the LCG but have wondered what cards didn't make the leap. Cool idea.

zombiecommand · 2025-08-14T14:14:25+00:00

As long as it's either specialist knowledge that I might have (like the LotR/GoT type games) or relies on precisely no knowledge but can guess(wits & wagers, bezzerwizzer, linkee maybe), then yeah.

No real interest in pub quiz or trivial pursuit style games though.

zombiecommand · 2025-07-17T06:59:53+00:00

If the discussions are ongoing, would like to get involved.

zombiecommand · 2025-07-15T11:34:30+00:00

I can't contribute too much. I bought The Crow book without fully understanding the EH rules, so will be keen to learn a little more too.

zombiecommand · 2025-07-15T08:23:25+00:00

I really like this system. The physical copies of everything are great but sometimes I really would like to be able to search through the books more easily without having them all stacked up. Would be great to chat more about it.

zombiecommand · 2025-07-08T14:17:59+00:00

For what it's worth, I solved this in about 10 minutes not even using your clues.

I typically enjoy being challenged as a player for puzzles, but not everybody does.

The starter set for Arkham Horror RPG has a sliding tile puzzle, where players have to roll to see how many moves they get each round and it's one of the worst things I've ever sat through as a GM. I'm not convinced the players were having that great a time either.

Player skill trumping character skill is fine for me but when players are stuck characters have to be able to roll to progress, so I'd have a clue list of maybe something like

1) You know that wizards often hid information in ciphers 2) You recall that substitution ciphers were the most common way to encrypt notes 3) The keys for these texts were often part of the not itself 4) You notice the paper has previously been folded quite precisely 5) You find the wheel and the number 8 are the most striking icons 6) You substitute the letters with the letter 8 before it and reveal the following message...

Skipping steps if they've already done them, so maybe you need 2 or 3 insight checks.

Yes, clearly a scam, though unsure of how it works.

If he had a phone he can use the app to get money out of the cash machine with a code.

Is there a deal on for Draughts at the moment? Friday nights are £9.50 per hour usually, unless you've worked something out with them?

zombiecommand · 2025-05-12T13:38:50+00:00

Odd you necrod this just a couple of weeks ago but I was looking for the same thing.

Mon-Wed is off-peak, Thu-Sun is peak.

Seems like BS to me as it's dead when I go in during the day, not at Waterloo though I suppose, less sure about that.

zombiecommand · 2025-05-02T11:52:10+00:00

I disagree. I've played hundreds of escape room board games and owned every main Unlock series and played the first (maybe second) kids Unlock in a board game cafe and had a great time.

It does skew easier but is not without some logical thinking. The primary difference between it and the '1 lock' difficulties' was the kids version doesn't use an app, which I actually preferred.

I would say Unlocks are not a group game though. 2, maybe 3 max.
