Board Game Arena

Hello, could you please add the game "Batik" from GIGAMIC?

This is a very interesting game but extremely rare today because it is very old.

The principle: "Original: the Batik board is a vertical ... transparent board! 18 pieces of wood, of various geometric shapes, will be inserted one by one, leaving some voids... Beware of the one whose piece does not fit completely into the painting: he lost!

One player has the light pieces, the other the dark ones. In turn, each one inserts one of his pieces into the painting, without forcing its introduction. The first player with a piece sticking out of the board loses the game."

This game, in its design, can also recall Power 4, it should not be too difficult to model it in 3D given the few elements to incorporate. So I think it would have quite a place on the site to be played between players.



this game has been showed in 2011 with the french show "Fort Boyard" :

Power Grid
Concordia
Viticulture
Chinatown

Chinatown is my favorite game of all time, and would be a great addition to BGA as a superb negotiation/trading game (better than "I'm the Boss!" IMHO).

Power Grid is fantastic and has my vote (one of my favorite games).

Our taste in games match up... We should be friends

POW ! from GIGAMIC Too !

AND "SERVICE COMPRIS" !



HOW THE GAME WORKS:

The player plays first and then the game proceeds in a clockwise direction unless a counter card is played (in this case the game resumes with the player who just played).
A player when it is his turn, first draws an action card, then plays one. He can decide whether the card played takes effect or not. In both cases it is discarded. If the draw pile is empty before the end of the game, the cards already used are shuffled again to form a new draw pile.

Only one counter card can be played in response to an action card. Once that card's instructions have been resolved, his immediately draws a new action card to replace the one he just played. Players must have 5 cards in hand at all times.

The game resumes with the player who just played the block.


THE GIANT MEAL: THE GUEULETON

When an "Hors d'oeuvre", "Goinfrerie" or "all you can eat buffet" card is played, the giant's hangout begins. the same applies if there are more than five characters on the table (or if there are less than 7 characters left in play).

From the next round, the gueuleton begins. The giant is ravenous: at the start of each turn, before the player draws on his action card, a character is devoured and his remains (the card that represents him) are thrown in the trash. it is always the character who is closest to the plate that is eaten. The hangout continues until there are no more characters left on the game board, in which case it stops immediately.

A player is eliminated as soon as all his characters are devoured (in the trash). All his action cards are then discarded. This is true even if his last character is eaten at the start of his turn. The game ends when there is only one people left in play (or none).

Another games that will be great :

Dark Tales
Rising Sun
Mémoir 44
King of New York
Cult
Zombicide
Rome & Roll

Can you bring Catan please ? It's my fav' but have no one to play with
