Game has great potential but the events definitely need to be toned down in duration. Waiting two weeks for a single event makes you lose a lot of interest as well as playing Card Memory every day.
You can skip the card minigame by clicking on the couple of books stacked on the right side of the monitor, it gives you $100 per click. I'm not sure if has a limit per day, but I clicked 4 times and I got $400 which is more than we would get by playing the minigame anyway, so my guess is that is unlimited. *only found out about this after I finished the game, this info is on the dev walkthrough*
As for the time, I don't mind having the events far apart, but I wish that was a button to skip a day or the very least to change between morning/noon/night.
