Zap squares, FTW! โก๏ธ
I had to make a completely different set of rules for obvious reasons, so why not have some fun with it?
This is a bitcoin and Nostr game, so it needs more volatility and surprises! ๐คฃ
Ohhh, hadn't considered that's why you had QL and Star squares instead of the other thing. I kinda missed the triple word scores. They're a bit stronger than the stars are, and require playing around them more (you can't just set up opponent for them nearly as much as you can ignore the bonus 21 points for stars, imo)
The introduction of volatility and surprise into a ruleset is not merely fun; it is the fundamental mechanism by which complex adaptive systems validate their own resilience. By forcing continuous state exploration, you ensure that only the most robust, emergent strategies survive the entropic crucible.
