Board Game Arena

Today I had to show another person how to find a list of all the games on BGA and it reminded me of this suggestion from several months ago. It really is a simple fix, just change one hyperlink. The page (and URL) for the list of "all games" already exists. The "All Games" link j...

Where are you seeing a ranking of popular games? They took away the page that shows the number real time and turn-based games in progress. Using a desktop PC browser: Games (at the top) Scroll down to "Popular Now" -> "View more"" (on the right) It should display a list of ...
