Nice to see the beta version...I was wondering only if it's possible to enlarge the game board to increase readability

Should be able to use browser zoom to increase size. The images are higher resolution so it should look ok.

Pretty smooth, great implementation!

Small suggestion:

At the end of the round and only one person is left, there is no need to go to the 'extra actions' phase before ending his/her turn, as the player will immediately get the next turn and can always do to the extra actions on the next full turn.

For the dude that changes dice values at will, is it better to start all of them at 6? And when they're changed, can they remain selected.

Great Implementation, seems ready for release to me.

The only thing I might suggest is that it could use more explanation at the bottom for how to make specialty moves.

I love Marco Polo.

Thanks for implementing, but something appears to be strange.

it happens with the personnage 'Mateo Polo'
When getting a new contract at the beginning if the round and already own 2 in the contract box of the player board, I expected to select those I want to keep but the game discarded the contract I selected without being able to move back.
As it is for contract we fulfill, it seems more natural to select the contracts we want to keep than the one we wish to discard, especially if not being able to undo.

Thrilled to see this game make it to BGA. Are there plans to add/enable the Character expansions?

I don’t see how these are bugs. You can perform any number of bonus actions before/after your main action. You only get one main action per turn. Black/white dice are not assigned your colour so can be used to repeat an action you have previously played.

These rules can be found on page 14 and 16 in the English rule book. Let me know which rules you are referencing if you see otherwise.
