Triple Triad Time Limit Too Short

[WellFooled]

I'm afraid I disagree, I think the 30 seconds limit is part of the appeal. You're pitting your quick wits against your opponent's as well as your cards.

In many cases you get up to another 30 seconds to think about your next moves because the "all open" and "three open" rules allow you to see some of your opponent's cards. You can then anticipate your possible moves during his turn. In these cases you can be playing things out like "if I were him I would put card A here or there and if he does that I'll counter by putting card B there".

And when those rules aren't in play...there's much less thinking to do anyway since you can't see your opponent's cards, that means less numbers to calculate.
