PT 10 "Words" Game

Post by whymeohgodno » Sun Sep 05, 2010 12:23 pm

Is this an example of a rare game?

The one where you can replace/delete/add letters.

It reminds me of:

the stupid tribes that do something in three year patterns
the flasks that can be mixed together in a different ways

It's kind of a "pattern" game - but not the way PS says pattern. Like, there are several different tracks the changing could take... like

plan 1 --> plan 2
or plan 3 --> plan 1

and so on and so forth. Which makes it difficult.

But I'm not sure of the frequency or what this game is technically defined as.

We probably won't see a game like this then?

Well, it's best to understand the game and how it works in case we do get one. I hope we don't, but it's definitely possible, it's shown up a few more times than in just PT 10. They seem to be making the LG a bit funkier.

Really? It seems like the games are more straightforward now. I think the issue is that the inferences/deductions are a little more difficult to come across.

The snakes and lizards game and Zephyr Airlines were two complex games. However, if you realized the inferences and deduction you were good. The Dino game last year was straighforward, but getting to the inferences/deductions was tough as hell.

Its all relative though.

I honestly haven't taken the most recent PTs yet (up to #51), but I have heard rumors of difficulty and weirdness being thrown in there. Like mulch and stone or whatever.

For me, if it takes ages to get an inference, that's an icky game lol.

Mulch and stone. Is it notorious for being difficult?
