TAR CHINA 4: Ongoing SHOW DIscussion! **contains spoilers**
Maanca:
So was the Face Off that thing where you touch one square to change its colour, and all the surrounding squares change to an alternating colour, and the goal is to get them all the same?
It's kind of a cliché video game puzzle. At least in the Legend of Zelda series.

It wasn't just touching, there was actually effort flipping, the two pieces from each point that forms the circle. There were 3 circles, 6 pieces (2 pieces per circle) and 3 points to run around.

SURELY this has to be the last non-elimination leg! :funny: :groan:

It was an okay Leg. I do think better than last week's.
I don't know how HaMerotz did the Face Off/Double Battle, but it's most likely like TARPH2 (both produced by ActiveTV). On TARPH, it was a best of three so both team members had to compete. If it was tied after two, then the winners of the first two rounds would go again for the 3rd to decide the winner of the Duel. I think I prefer it TARPH's way. Here on TAR China, it was definitely a simplified version. I think it would've been more fun and exciting if it was Best of 3.
Funny though here on TAR China, the teams flipped the pieces very neatly. on TARPH, it didn't matter if the pieces were neatly together so much as long as they were flipped to the color you needed. So that part was a little extra bit of a challenge here on TAR China if it was part of the rules. Otherwise, the teams just made it harder on themselves. lol
Also, there were 7 teams instead of 4 on TARPH, so there was a little more tension there as well.
I do prefer TAR China's version of the gondola task over TAR29's since here the teams had to memorize the song. I think teams had a sheet of music to read from on TAR29?
I also think the dive/aquarium task was better here than on TARA5 since teams had to swim around a little more and search for the animals which could be anywhere. TARA5's was basically guessing, but still tricky.
G.B.:
There really is a heavy focus on Asia this time around.
