Board Game Arena

BGA used to allow you to set up a table (turn-based usually) for 5 players (for example), and even if you only have 3 players sitting at the table, you can "Start the game anyway", without having to fill in the last 2 spots. This feature seems to be completely gone now. Was this a announce...

I'm generally pretty happy with the implementation of Alchemists at www.boiteajeux.net, but BGA implementations have some very nice Quality of Life features like having a undo or confirmation buttons, and a far more responsive interface. Also BGA with a much larger audience, IMO. If it's here, I'll ...

Troyes is similar in regards to scoring. Score is tallied at end of game. I agree, keep opponent scores hidden. I am not against a toggleable option. Maybe enable show scores in a training game? I think the difference is that Troyes has hidden scoring goals/cards. Everything in GWT is trackable. On...

Having played Beyond the Sun both online and physical, I appreciate knowing how well I'm doing throughout the game. I don't think it's particularly demoralizing, and it's not as if beginner players will have an expectation of keeping pace with an expert player. In my physical games of GWT, sometimes...

After the 25th mission, click on the black satellite token. Once clicked, it will prompt you to confirm, after which you can choose to pass left, right, or stay. Reminder that you can only click the black satellite token and initiate the transfer BEFORE any clues are given and any cards are played, ...

Did not know that upvoting the 2P variant was a thing. I think one of the complexity with the 2P variant is that there are the official rules in the rulebook (4 suits,all rockets) which are too easy, and the expert variant (3 suits, 2-3-4 rockets only) which is the perfect amt of challenge. If imple...

Can confirm that the Transfer rule is available after the 25th Mission.

edit: this is wrong.

We played our first game last weekend. Two opportunities for improvement: 1) Add list of incorrect guesses under each player's name. Unless scrolling through history and taking notes, multiple players may keep guessing the same name for a given player's dinosaur. 2) When highlighting/mouseover a &qu...
