Take 3 actions from those.

Final thoughts

One game is fast because it finishes in less than 30 minutes.
It is also suitable for beginners to be able to play it many times in a short time.

I play when there are people who are new to cooperative games, or when I want to play something that feels a little more story than "The Game" or "HANABI".

At the end, I feel like I'm taking an aerial shot.
