Clarity
5/10I had to read 'Open from $3 · Head $19 · steal +$10' three times and I’m still not 100% sure what 'Open', 'Head' and 'Steal' do differently.
You scatter clear micro-copy ('Tap any oval on the bug.') and mystifying terms ('If you take the head, you become the thought.'). The steps exist in headings, but the one-line mechanics that sell the idea are missing.
FIX ITOne-line, up top: 'Buy a 14‑day ad plate on the isopod. Openings $3–$9, Head $19, Steal = last paid + $10. Tap a plate to bid — shell hardens in 14 days.'
