But, like you, I discovered the fan made solo mode recently and omg, I think this is the best solo dice placement game I own now. And it's so good, so simple, it looks like an official mode that was play tested, It should just be in the box at this point, I love it.

Reply: Molly House:: Rules:: Re: House raided twice - evidence

16 December 2025 @ 12:14 am

by jasonact Additionally, the wording and order of operations for a raid is important. If an open house has enough evidence to bring it to 14 total in a single raid, my understanding is that it ends the game after that week. The house is raided/closed, seven evidence are removed, and the excess (possibly 7+) is still left on the house when checking for end game conditions.This happened in our last game, when a house already had 6 evidence going into the End of Week, which generated an additional 10 evidence, meaning a previously open house had 16. Yes, there were 3 informers in that 4-person game, two of whom were informing against the house in question.

HMD Pearl spotted on Geekbench, might be the Pulse 2 Pro

15 December 2025 @ 3:06 pm

An unknown HMD phone has surfaced on Geekbench – it bears the code name “Pearl”. Pearl was running Android 15 on a Unisoc chip with just 4GB of RAM for the test. Which chip is that? This appears to be the Unisoc T7250. The listed motherboard “ums9230_6h10” refers to the T606/T615/T616, however, the CPU clock speeds (2x @ 1.82GHz + 6x @ 1.61GHz) indicate that this is the T7250 indeed (the three T6xx chips are 2x @ 1.6GHz + 6x @ 1.6GHz instead).

For now it's a limited release - Waze is testing the traffic light display feature in Israel. The feature seems to be in early stages. Interestingly, Waze will only show you a maximum of three traffic lights when in navigation mode, presumably to keep the UI from looking too cluttered. That said, if...
