Right now I’m rotating this games:

• Stardew Valley, starting over
• 7 days to end with you, pretty frustrating for me that I’m really bad with puzzles, but so satisfying every time I manage to decipher a word.
• LibrARian

EDIT: LibrARian is one of those games that seems cool for a stream or let’s play.

It speeds up really quickly after the initial friction, they gave you too powerful habilites. Once finished the game there no incentive to play again.

OMG, so cute 😻

This, when I decided to join Mastodon I was prompted to choose a server and had to research which one should join and understand how it works.

It is called UX friction and is well studied in sign up and checkout processes, the more steps the user has to perform the more likely it abandons it.
