Okay, so interesting thing happened.

Played the first scenario with some friends and we got in trouble towards the end as we had to end the ritual.

Now everyone on the team had 3 lore or less, with no way to roll additional dice.

We got 3 success on one roll and it did not count.

Continually got more successes and the app just kept saying that the ritual was getting closer and closer to finishing.

As suddenly it seemed impossible to win, I put it on 4 successes and it passed.

So, the question is. Was this an impossible scenario based on our team? or was the app adding our successes up and I just happened to pass the threshold when I put it on 4?

The latter is the case, I think, as I finished that test with less than 4 successes.

Does the text not indicate as much? I think I remember it saying something like 'closer, but not there yet'.

Just played this for the first time this weekend. Loved it. If it helps, I think we had 3 passes, 3 passes, and then 2 passes when it advanced the story arc. We had three players but only two were at the circle. Both at the circle had a lore of three, so its definitely possible.

Most tests that requires you to input number of successes is cumulative.

Some will even reward you more the higher your success is over the threshold.

However, a couple are once only, and then blocked.
