"Skip 3" during opening scene?
Looks like you can skip the intro, but 3 doesn't do it. What does this mean?

It's a common mechanics in games with mouse control. Sorry for confusing you.

No, it's not.

I've literally have played thousands of games. Not once have I seen "Skip 3" and been expected to hold the left mouse button. I dont know of any game where that's even a function.

A common function to skip is "press spacebar (tab, or escape) to skip."

I've even googled "skip 3" and "hold left mouse button to skip," and have yet to have anything pop up.

You're making a lot of sense here. We will think about making skipping option more obvious. Thank you!

omg.. my sanity is saved

If I had to sit thru those scenes one more time I was going to uninstall.

And I agree with the OP. SKIP.. usually is Esc Tab or Space bar and some games even put the word "skip" in the upper right or bottom right corners so people can click and skip

PLEASE make skipping more obvious.. I nearly quit b/c of this.

This is a great game. (though sometimes I wish I could slow it down as I try to keep up with all the activities, but that is just my own weakness).

So far my only criticism is this skip option. I figured it out by accident, as I just ended up holding down without intending to, but there was no obvious indicator before the fact.

Just an update of the message to say Hold to Skip would be plenty.
