I actually took that de-emphasised retry loop of Threes to be a lovely touch of "humane" game design. A lot of us are probably familiar with an unconscious just-one-more insta-retry reflex, and while that does keep you in a game, there's a fair chance of the conclusion being quitting it on a bleary-eyed low note after your last-last-last-for-real attempt goes worse than your first.
Their little cooldown there struck me as very much designed rather than a lack of knowledge about how mobile games "should be". People making games of Threes quality level are no dummies when it comes to the details.
- benched 13y agoI despise UI that gets in my way. It's even worse if it's for my own good.
- MBCook 13y agoThat extra swiping did get in my way, and I would say it was one of the only flaws in Threes. Luckily, they added an option to turn it off in the 1.1 patch so you don't have to deal with it anymore.
