Don’t expect to progress based on your skill

The events do help the main storyline, which is nice, but after the beginning stages, that is the only time the puzzles are winnable. The way the pieces fall are either weighted against you winning or for you winning, how they think will best convince you to buy gold, but any of your own skill begins to have nothing to do with things in the higher levels. Graphics and storyline keep you playing, and as long as you submit to the pieces you are dealt with and know sometimes there will be no way you could possibly win, even for days, it may be worth playing.
