Board Game Arena

Hi all, I had to clarify a rule relating to situations when you lay a shield that joins two or more land parcels controlled by only one opponent. In this instance, one of the men controlling the two shields is returned to the opponent, but the opponent still controls the larger land parcel, hence yo...

We are pushing improvements to Marram today. You will now have the ability to taker back your first tile laid, so your turn is not completed until you confirm your actions after laying both tiles. The playing experience on a mobile or tablet is vastly improved, with direction buttons, magnification ...

Welcome back to the New Year! I set up a couple of tournaments, one for the Americas and one for Europe. I'm sorry for the lack of invites for the Europe one, I reached my limit for invitations when I opened the American one, Here are the links: Europe: /tournament?id=512313 America: /tournament?id=...

You cannot play arena until you get to 100 ELO, and it takes a while to get enough players to that level, and then not everyone wants to play arena games. It appears that the tournament idea will take off first, and then perhaps there will be more people to play arena. You could do your bit to ask y...

The game has only just been launched - literally a few weeks ago. Nearly 2,000 people have played it since then, many coming back to play it multiple times.

Give it a chance!

People have asked me about the features of the tiles. I can provide some statistics. Of the 102 tiles, 27 are wide tiles with only 3 animal placement spots, 36 wide tiles with 4 animal spots, and there are 39 narrow tiles, all with 4 animal spots. The colours are evenly distributed on the wide tiles...

Sadly you have to be "fun-spoiler" as many people see this distructive aspect of the game, in order to win. Yes lots take offense in it. I don't know if it is off-topic, but instead of creating a new thread, I think I can ask here. Is Elongo prone to card/tile memorization like Carcassone...

恕我直言，这个规则书简直是一场灾难。这么有趣的游戏题材，却被搞的这么复杂和混乱。明明可以做一个有趣的家庭桌游，却非要硬着头皮上强度？ I think this translates as: Forgive my bluntness, but this rulebook is a disaster. Such an interesting game concept has been turned into something so complicated and chaotic. It could have been a fun family board game, but instead, ...

Given all you said above, is it possible to have a semi-transparent grid on the edges of the map, to be able to see what tiles can fit, or would the lines of potential additions make everything look too messy? I wish some guiding lines existed, so you can plan 2-3 steps ahead more easily. We though...

People have asked me, why is there a hexagon at the start of the game, and why are there 13 tiles, 8 wide and 5 narrow in a player's hand? And what about the boma lines? The two types of tiles (called shields in the game) are a special type of tiling called Penrose P3 aperiodic tiling. Sir Roger Pen...
