(I definitely still need to binge the Arcades vids for the best idea of how they compare.)
The only one I haven't had is the OG.

1) Dark World - IMHO, least impressive of the three. My memory of it is there was a volume drop and it was hard to distinguish in a mix.
2) CB GL - I'm using this as frontend pedal to get some wobblyness but . . .
3) Arcades - played with this first time yesterday and my initial impression is there is a lot of variety in the GL card and I am thinking about replacing the CB GL with it. For my purposes, I only get one sound from the CB GL that I like but yesterday, I was getting all sorts of really great sounds from Arcades,

Tom was very kind to send a couple extra cards so I played Synth, Grains, Lofi, Reverse, Delay and GL cards yesterday. Initial impression was I really liked Grains (was surprised actually) and GL, just about all 8 alogos if I remember correctly. Lofi and Reverse, like most of the algos. Delay and Synth were a mixed bag. Synth was really kind of disappointment, it does not have Synth algos like other pedals. After the Sensitivity knob is set for the guitar, I would hit the strings and get something I would like but then the sound would not go away, it would just keep repeating until I hit the strings again, which is not really usable for what I do.

But maybe I just need to play with it more.

But Arcades GL is definitely my favorite GL thus far, that I've played.

I wouldn't waste your time or money. It's not worth the hype imo.
What does the Ayahuasca provide that the Catalinbread Antichthon doesn't?

You can counter-trip on the Antichthonic counter-earth.

Careful. It cycles back to zero if the digits get high enough.
Then you lose track of exactly where you are.
