This is an inconsequential thing, yet it does bug me (ha ha) a bit: if you look at both Gen42's website as well as the expansion packaging, the wording is meant to be "The Pillbug" instead of "The pill bug." I messaged one of the developers about it and they told me all strings c...

I prefer turn-based when possible and it's definitely funny realizing which games do and do not work for it. Seasons, for example, your entire turn can literally be choosing a dice roll.

I feel like you may be misunderstanding how turn-based games work, and I don't blame you because I was confused at first too. x turns a day isn't a maximum limit of turns you can take, rather it's a minimum. You can choose any low number of turns, and as long as both players are active, you can keep...

+1 to the idea of high quality cards. Give the option for lower res as a toggle.

I thought it was clear enough: I prefer abstract games, and was trying to find non-abstract games I might enjoy based on that. Basically, something more game-y and less "You are a spice trader in 15th century Europe" kind of thing. Tiny Towns looks amazing for this, too, sadly it's not (ye...

One useful thing to do is to click the options menu (top-right of your screen) and toggle Notation style from "Classic" to "Tournament" - I got the hang of most of it simply by looking at it for a few minutes, but if you need clarification, here you go . It's a lot easier, this w...

I feel like with that kind of a history, someone is far beyond second chances and something needs to be done.

I wasn't actually looking for a thread about this, just happened to click the tournaments forum by accident... and yet somehow, this is relevant to me. I opened two tables for Santorini last night and * took both tables. I have a bad habit of checking profiles, easily amused by seeing win rates of m...

Not seeing a list of rules specific to these forums I'd break for asking this question, so hey... I'm the type of person who avoided board games for a long time because of Monopoly. Thought they'd all be boring. Now that I've tried out games like Hive, Santorini, and Azul, I realize that's not the c...
