What is this report about?
What happened ? Please select from below
Suggestion: in my opinion, the following would greatly improve the game implementation
Detailed description
• Please explain your suggestion precisely and concisely so that it's as easy as possible to understand what you mean.
I've had some feedback saying that tool tips have been implemented, but they aren't visible on my PC or my play-mate's laptop.
I think this game is very close to being ready, certainly as a two or three player. But the board has a naked feel and it's not intuitive for new players.
This game is nearly perfect, it just needs to support new players better.

Explanation of the action spaces could include, for example:
when hoovering on the cart tiles:
Black coal lorry/cart cost $4 each
Grey coal lorry/cart cost $3 each
Brown coal lorry/cart cost $2 each
Yellow coal lorry/cart cost $1 each
The english speaking world calls them carts or wagons but the rules call them lorries.
The middle space:
Reorder the deck
Movement slots:
Six mining movements
Ten mining movements
Bank - $4 payment
Bank - $6 payment
space above contracts:
Reorder the deck
Contracts;
Available contract
Canteen space;
in the canteen until the next shift starts
Delivery spaces
Delivery of completed contracts
I notice that the shift clock isn't visible, it don't care personally, but I note that the reviewer guidelines state 'include all physical game items'

I am not a big fan of adding tooltip on action spaces. This is not a complex game, so the actions are pretty straightforward. What is the shift clock ?

If you have remarks about wording or images please refer to the official 2023 version rules (published by French people so they might have used different wording).
For example, the shift clock has been replaced by a scoring board with 3 lines in this version : you can find it in the game by clicking on the first icon on player side panel.
