Party House - 5 winning streak - unwinnable scenarios?

[PlantMurderer]

Anyone spent enough time on Party House to figure out whether every random scenario thrown at you can actually be won even with the worse luck in the world?

5 streaks is insanely demanding, and it looks to me like it might be hardest achievement in the game.

Won't the game give cheap house expansions to compensate?

Money costs never change. No money decks are generally the hardest because how important money is for big decks. In situations like this, generally the strat is overload on rich friend, and one or two hippie or similar. Basically forces your house to have at least $1 each time very early.

It is EXTREMELY unlikely you will have no money, bad pop, high trouble, no trouble mitigation. And rarely will you have no money, bad pop. Beating each deck requires learning how to deal with one of them, and almost always there is an out. Generally it’s starting early and not buying everything.

Don’t listen to 9000.

After reading some of the comments in this post I gave it a few tries, it took me 3 hours to beat the main scenarios and then another 3 hours to achieve the streak of 5 wins for a total playtime of 6 hours. And right now the only thing that I want is to keep the streak going, oh god I love this game so much

I don't know how but I doubled my streak to 10, I'll leave it there because I need to go but I think I'm starting to get it

Oh! Yeah, I was positing a truly perverse and infernal possibility, not something that you really have to think about happening.

You can have 1 fun per additional streak, no more, otherwise you will have trouble sleeping.

The 65 pop limit feels a bit too restricting in endgame, because by then you're likely scoring bonus upon bonus, wasting pop (far) beyond the 65 pop limit, when just before you were missing some, or literally just 1 pop to get a star guest (seems to happen to me regurarly).
I'm thinking 75 would be better.

I almost lost a streak because I got 2 high cost star guess (45/50) and in 2 rounds I wasted 10+ pop because of the cap, finishing a round with 40 pop and being unable to buy any of them and then wasting a lot of pop 2 times feels like absolute trash and is game losing for no good reason, the game already has rng that can make you lose without any fault of your own (I like that, tho), but the pop cap punishes you in games that are already bad enough, having to get 40+ pop for each star guess is already harsh.
I'm okay with it getting only raised to 70, that should have saved me a round, and it's going to help in those scenarios when you are close to buying a high cost guess

Also, saving pop is bad, even if the cap was raised to 100, that would only matter in those runs when you already have those combos that can give you 50 pop a round, and those combos can go online so early anyways that you can win with 5 rounds to spare, winning with 7 or 8 rounds instead would only make it less tedious, I think it's a win win situation to raise the cap, less unfair situations, less having to do the same combo for too many rounds, and a bit easier game, to make possible my dream of reaching a streak of 100
