Playing yourself is so disappointing!

And all of that is lost when you play yourself. Maybe if you had really bad memory or played 20 games at once so it's hard to remember all of them... but otherwise knowing the other side makes it impossible for having a "real" match.

So, playing with yourself - can be fun but it's not even close to the real thing.

I think it's meant to be played versus a friend. Not yourself. You would make your move hit done and pass the device to them. Hence why the screen goes black after you hit done-neither player can see each others units.
