Board 8 > Ludocene released today - video game recommend website

(+) Yeah! (+)

Fun little website to play around with when you need a game rec:

All of the picks are apparently human curated instead of AI which is cool too.

I'm seeing some nice looking recommendations for games I've never heard of.

Pretty cool, some parts of the interface feel a bit clunky but I can definitely see this being useful.

Yeah the card dragging feels a little buggy but I'm seeing better games than I get out of the Steam discovery queue or whatever.

I can't get this to work at all

Kinda don't understand how this is supposed to work. I started a run and it gave me Stardew Valley, which I dragged to my "loved" deck, but then everything after that was a farming/life sim game. I tried again choosing to start with Obra Dinn as loved and it just gave me detective/murder mystery games? I feel like they need to start by importing my Steam library or something, otherwise I might as well just look games up by genre.

Cards? Decks? Did they turn this game search engine into a comfy roguelite deckbuilder?

I like the idea but I think it needs some more time to aggregate properly. I got to Fata Morgana pretty quick and then it started giving me Luigi's Mansion and Five Nights....multiple games for each lol.

Yeah this is how it went for me. The first game I got was Civilization (not a specific one, just... the series, I guess) and I said I loved it and now it's only giving me city builders and shit

Am I missing something, or is there no skip option for games I haven't played?

Tap the deck that says Games.

I don't like how my only option is "yes I adore this game, recommend only games like it" or "I hated this game, don't recommend anything like it at all". Why can't there be a middle option? Like I played GTAV. I didn't love it but it was fine.

I also don't understand why there isn't an option like, I haven't played this game but it looks cool, recommend me other stuff like this

This is the most useless thing I've ever seen in my life

I don't get this at all
