An effect with this icon (lightning bolt) does not count
as the main action of your turn.
On your turn, you can play as many
free actions as you like. They can
be played before, after, and even
during your main action.
Game 215630403, move 75
Table:243600003
Browser:brave
At move #169, PPwinPP (table 243600003) only had 3 compasses to buy an artifact, while artifacts cost 4, and the interface did not give him the opportunity to use one or more free actions to get an additional compass.

- Nouvel artéfact révélé : Bâton d’éclaireur
- jmotto cannot afford any card. The top card was Pathfinder's Staff
I used a free action to gain a compass but i could not buy any artefact.
table #291045544/ the move #105
When I used the Precision Compass, the main action finished immediately.
I picked no card, even I had a free idol which can beused to get 1 Compass.
It just shows "Woooooh cannot afford any card. The top card was Star Charts"
And it can not undo.
Knowing that the use of free actions is always possible during a main action, it is inconceivable that the implementation can automatically terminate a main action, as long as the player can use free actions.
The simplest is to ask the player to validate the end of the main action by an “ad hoc” button in the top bar.
Of course, the game situation must be re-evaluated each time a free action is played.
See table #371424689 for yet another example.
After playing the card my turn ended automatically

Not only was I not allowed to do free action to buy an artifact, the game completely glitched out. The artifacts just froze at the top. I ended up ignoring that and defeated my guardian, but I lost my resources without getting credit, ended up with an extra fear and no guardian points.

I could not afford any of the artifacts as they all cost 4 compasses but had a compass in my hand. I also had one idol slot available. I tried playing the compass in my hand after the new artifact was revealed and it would not let me buy any of the artifacts. I tried using the idol slot instead and it still did not work.
