Re: How Hard is FIRST Stronghold?
Hardest. Fun. Ever.

By design.

How's it compare to other games? Idk, I've had a lot more fun building for this challenge than the last couple years. And my students seem more interested in doing cool things. So, how hard is it? Hard enough.

I think the challenges appear harder at first glance, at second glance they seem to relax a bit. Then the devil is all in the details on solving them. I firmly believe the majority of teams defeated themselves before they started cutting metal [1] by underestimating the difficulty and overestimating their skill. So, it'll probably be too hard for most teams.

So, TL;DR - no harder than usual, just different. More nuanced.
