List of game types that shoud or should not be on GBA

Post by thoun »

Is there a guideline somewhere of games categories we can adapt on GBA ?

For example, straegy games like 7Wonders are easily playable on GBA, but mimes games like Times'up aren't playable.

For trivia games, it's not that obvious. I think about Timeline Challenge. Some people think it's useless : Sorry, but even if I like this game, there is no interest to be online, players can go to wikipedia /google and find the dates... But it could work if you play with friends, and you trust them to avoid cheating. But I agree it would not make sense in some cases like random opponents or Arena mode.

There is no specific guidlines as long as can be defined as boardgame. Real life timeouts is probably possible too.
As far as cheating goes, some game won't be playable in arena/competitve setting, but still ok as family fun, so why not?
