This week we're discussing the newly released Texas Chain Saw Massacre game, it's been awesome to finally get to play the game with my friends! But one thing was bothering me about the game and today I want to explore what that is, and suggest some solutions. We're gonna be talking user experience, game flow, juice, compulsion loops and more in the context of the TCM progression system!
