having a stream of garbage carried via conveyor belt toward a garbage can in the middle of the screen, and the object of the game is to break down the garbage by strategically placing it into the can based on the items available before the can fills to overflowing. If three pieces of undamaged garbage fall out of the trash can, the game will end. Players may process garbage by setting fire to burnable items, some garbage will decompose when placed near the correct substances, and lighter or fragile objects (a television, for example) may be smashed by heavier ones (a bowling ball). The stream of garbage will continue to drop into the trash can until either the player successfully compacts a certain quantity of items or the trash can is filled to overflowing

Obvious enemy weaknesses without exposition.

E.g if the enemy is tree-like, it's vulnerable to fire.

Something id like to see more of in an RPG is the story recap that TW3 does when you load the game up.

Final Fantasy XIII-2 does that, but because the game is super nonlinear, the recap is usually incoherent nonsense lol
