Why?

That can easily happen in a 5 player game - you only get 10 health.

I do not think I had made any major mistakes. I realize that often new players think this, but I talked with the other players and they agreed that my rerolls and moves were all reasonable.
doesn't sound right either. Especially with 5 players.


Yup, not leaving Tokyo was probably the major (rookie) mistake.

But in any case, it sounds like you take your games very seriously. That's the reason I think this game may not be for you.

It may be random, but you have control over the randomness, so risk management can be used.

Just because it's a light filler doesn't mean that it can't be played or taken seriously.
