so i have a sorting game, but i am conflicted as to make the player drag, like burger game, cook burger and other games. OR i can use a placing system like this, what do yall think?

I think draggin has a bit more wacky controls than place. So probably placing system is better

I think a placement mechanic is much simpler and easier for players. If you had a shelf, being able to place items exactly where you want them would be near problem-free.
But I think a dragging mechanic can be more fun or more annoying depending on the game and player. Depends on the pace of the game and how a player might react when there’s a mess.
If players have time to walk around and do nothing then I think dragging would be nice. But if your game requires players to be quick with placing (or to move lots and lots of things) then a placement mechanic would be better.
