As a new player here in the forum, I would say you are getting a decent number of online players and active lobbies even though you are not running any advertising campaign at the moment.
I tryed "Colonel Blotto" on demo mode to understand more how it works.
I noticed that the number of current games does not reset after the game ends unless you refresh the page.
Also after the game ends you should let the player see the strategy the opponent used to improve his own.
I find the game concept unique but how to be sure you are playing against a real player and not just a bot that could easilly manipulate the result?
Your feedback is really important! We decided to postpone the work on the real-time updating until later, because the minimum update time for the lobby is one hour. We hide the opponent strategies to protect against scam.Those who discover the repetitive strategies of the other players can invite him to play and cheat him. If we show the player the opponents strategy, he may lose the interest in finding his own one.
We want to achieve our minimal participation in gameplay and provide full control of it by the players themselves.
I am wondering what are the instances that will make you participate in gameplay?
We are not interested in taking any part in the game and influence the outcome of the battle. Free demo game is only game we can take part in.
