Re: New games list page

I still wish there was a way to say "show me the games that ONLY support 2 players" (possibly also <= 2 players). Because there are a lot of 2 player only games, but it's very hard to discover them. And sometimes you have two players and want to try out games you wouldn't normally try with...

Re: Hardback, the deck-building word game

I really enjoyed the game (which we played three times in a row), but have one small quality of life suggestion: allow undo on ink removal. I say this because of the nice feature of planning your turn out while other players are playing. This grinds to a halt when another player might play a "t...

Re: Preferred color not chosen

I agree that this is not the best solution, but I guess that's the easiest solution to code. Maybe. There's always possible ins and outs that I'm not forseeing without looking at the code, but I don't think the (different, also non-perfect) solution of a "breadth" before "depth"...

Re: Preferred color not chosen

Thanks for all the replies. I went back and asked each person to look at their actual settings. Everyone but Chuck Dice was able to give me what it said (he gave it to me from memory). Earl Of Essense had subsequently changed his, but he was pretty sure of what the previous setting was. Also, though...

Preferred color not chosen

Something wonky is happening with preferred color choices. In this game: https://boardgamearena.com/gamereview?table=148655241 It says: "The colors of Chuck Dice, Earl of Essence, dhc3po, TheOtherJason have been chosen according to their preferences." Change my preferences. But it chose or...

I wish this game had "Jason's Setup" mode

This game has the normal setup where you're dealt four tiles and they are placed in ascending order from top-left to bottom-right. Or you can play with Michael's setup where you get the tiles one at a time and place them where you want. The second seems worse than just the normal setup, as it's just...

Re: can anyone advise on training mode

He needs to change it in mode option Are you talking about changing the mode each time you start a game, or changing it somewhere that it is now your new default? Because I have this problem with several games, most recently Chakra. It always defaults to training mode. My friends have it default to...

Re: Chakra needs an undo button

I would also appreciate an undo button. It's especially important in this game, with the low scores. I find that if I make a single mistake in the game (like a real mistake, meaning I clicked the wrong action button or the wrong gem), I will probably lose the game. There's not much room for that.
