Feature request: undo

[Lucas Malor]

This request comes to me because I play only with friends, and sometimes we wrong sign at Battle of LITS. So we have to abandon the game.

Can't an undo mechanism be implemented? Like abandon, if all agree, the game will undo the last move.

How can you place something wrong by accident in Battle of LITS if you need to mark all fields first AND then need to confirm that you actually want to place the stone there were all the marked fields are? Not sure I agree that you should be able to undo, if you only realise after the placement that it was bad.

This is game-dependent so you should file a suggestion report here: https://boardgamearena.com/bugs?game=1030

The game is not under active development though.

Having a global Undo last move would be great, but unlikely to be able to add without code in every game...

Global undo? No thanks, there are a lot of games where undo can ruin a game. When you reveal hidden information by playing and undo after it.. you can ruin games with it for players who don’t like that.. (card games as example).

In the context of the original post "if all agree, the game will undo the last move", but I definitely see both sides

In a real life situation many folks would allow you to take back a move, but, as you say, not everyone agrees with that. Although, if you give up your own secrets along the way, that's on you for giving the other players "extra" information they didn't already have...

In solo games yeah but in team vs team can this lead to cheating.

point well taken... if you could do this in Hanabi it would radically change the game, eh?
