Along those lines, are there plans for a 3 or 4 player game? My parents are cribbage fanatics and I would love to do 3 player with them. As for the beta game, I've played quite a few games of it and haven't been getting any errors lately so previous bugs seem fixed. Look forward to seeing this go live!

One feature I'd like to see: a better display of the two cards I've selected for the crib. Right now, it's a subtle red outline. I'd prefer to see the cards moved upwards slightly, or just a less subtle display.

A more important request: the log should say which cards I threw into the crib. I want to be able to go back afterwards and analyze my decisions.

GAme interface at Random Salad Cribbage Deluxe is nice. I know it is a bit slow but it is clean and fulfilling.

As for playing the last card, that is controversial and probably would not do it,
Think of playing the last card in solo, or tock -- at some point you want the player to enjoy playing the game

I agree with you on auto-go / last card Mike: that shouldn't be the default because playing cards is part of playing the game.

Cut for deal, however, I feel the opposite about - the default should be auto-cut, with cutting manually the option. Every other game on BGA just determines who starts automatically, and I don't see any enjoyment value in doing a "cut" with virtual cards on screen.

As an example, when you play Yahtzee on BGA you don't have to do anything to roll the 5 dice initially - and it would be annoying to have to click "roll dice" 13 times per game just to move it forward. However, even when there is only one box left to score points in you still have to click on it - and that feels right, just like playing a Go feels right. It's your turn, and you should have a chance to look and understand your options even if there is only one option.

Thank you for the feedback, the good thing is once the setting is set it is set for life

I don't agree that picking a card is the same as rolling the dice in that you are actually getting the card you pick, like in real life.
Rolling the dice on the other hand is having someone else roll for you, unlike real life

So glad you added Cribbage to the games! Would really like to see a 3 and 4 person cribbage option offered. My whole family plays and it would really be nice if more of us could play at one time.

I would vote for 3 and 4 person version too!

Yes, it would be great to see 3 and 4 player options!

I really enjoyed my play of this implementation of Cribbage. Thank you for making it.

If I had one note, I wish that the scoring of each had was more explicit. It would be nice, even if it is only a configurable mode, for the scoring of each set of points to call out how the points were made. So If a player got two points for "15" it would show that during the hand scoring round.

As an interface tweak, I think it can help new players to Cribbage understand and learn the game. I understand that it may slow the game down, in which case having it as a configurable table option would be preferable.

Thank you for a great game. I am happy to see it on BGA and it will probably be the reason that I get my extended family on BGA as they love Cribbage.
