El Grande - Undo / Cancel

Post by Szever »

There seems to be no way to undo/cancel an action in El Grande when you've hit the wrong button. Unless a Veto occurred, there should be a way to correct a fat-finger mess up. Ex. Pressed Place Caballeros and then do Action instead of the reverse. There's no affect to other players until the turn is done, so why can't I just undo the turn and redo it?

You'll get more traction on the discussion by posting the thread in the El Grande forum, rather than the site suggestion forum.

If you want to file an official suggestion, rather than starting a conversation, you can post it here for the developer to see: https://boardgamearena.com/bugs

It's worth noting that implementing undo in a game isn't as easy as checking an "allow undo" box, as your question seemingly suggests. The game developer needs to put significant time and effort into the feature. Done correctly, undo is far more complicated than most people realize.

Fortunately, most games here allow anyone to make improvements, so those that insist it's ought to be easy to do can go add the contribution themselves.

The game is rendered excessively frustrating due to the adsence of a feature to cancel or undo actions, or any system for confirmation prior to finalizing an action.

Would like to second an undo button during card selection, please!

Thanks for making this game available on BGA.
