Quick first-play from NextGenRunGames: I went through the intro and the opening repair, “A little more light.” The story setup got me to the board, and “collect 24 crystals in 20 moves” was clear. My first swap cleared 10 crystals and left a Pulse ready, which made the special tile feel rewarding right away.
Small onboarding thought: Pulse/Nova and tool use are explained in two back-to-back panels before the first move. Could the tool panel wait until I tap a tool? That might get players matching sooner while keeping the info available. I only tested this first repair, so I can’t speak to later levels. Thanks for sharing it!
