Board Game Arena

The idea of the game is great but such random kill the game. If the result is finally determined by luck you can just throw a couple of dices instead the game. Good games usually shouldn't have such situations. It's just disrespect to the players. Where is fun if after 40 minutes of play the winner ...

The thing disappointing me in Tobago is the random in the end of the game. If the winner is decided by a coinflip the whole previous game become pointless. I mean the situation when you take several last cards (e.g. 4) and win if the curse in second half and lose if it's in the first half. It could ...

I don't know. I agree but it is always like this at least at quoridor. Maybe a bug or an error. Maybe someone should report that? It's obviously an error since conceding means you lose.

In my opinion players can tell each other anything except insults and hidding information. If someone gives another player an advice that isn't good for you just tell that player that advice giver wins more from this move than he. If you didn't make an agreement to play without chat you can't expect...

I see a point in the views of topic starter. If someone wants only Carcassonne from BGA's premium games why should he pay for other games?
