Hanabi: grand feux (new edition)

[jdaf20]

I dislike the new Hanabi. When I change it to the "Stacked version" I have to keep scrolling. Even if I zoom out, it won't fit. The discard card's numbers are so small and hard to see. Overall, I prefer the old Hanabi.

i understand a bit of work has been done for this update but yeah definitely quite a few issues.
main thing is i cannot see all the players hands on the same screen, i have to keep scrolling down to see my cards. even zooming out does not actually solve this issue.
not sure if this is a bug but while clicking on a card in my deck gives me option to play or discard, clicking on the newest card automatically discards the card instead of giving me the option to play it.
also not sure why the need to invert the other players cards (new cards from right) just an extra issue old players will have to deal with.

IMHO would have been better to keep old hanabi gameplay style with updated graphics (but to be able to see all the cards on the table on the same screen is important!) and updated expansion options

would be nice if possible as well to be able to choose to play the old version in setup screen

EDIT: ok having played another game. still annoying i have to keep scrolling up and down but the around the table logic is alright when you understand the logic behind it, but trying to change the preferences to stacked completely messed up the interface. (playing on mozilla if that is relevant maybe)

so the automatic discard when clicking the card is definitely a bug that needs to be fixed. most of the times i get the option to play or discard selected card but occasionally will just discard automatically (doesnt just happen with the newly aquired card btw)

2nd EDIT: tried playing the game on edge browser and much better, i guess this is how the new version is intended to look and feel like. can see the whole table and no issues/bugs with automatic discards when clicking cards. i guess it needs to be optimised for firefox and mobile...

So as a further review i think the new version is actually pretty good but yes should be fixed for different browsers before release to avoid all of this confusion and negative feedback!

goodbye my favorite game

Make two options:
Hanabi 1.0 with old interface and rules (no new additions)
Hanabi 2.0 for thrill-seekers

I am now at a loss how to finish playing turn based games
I'm afraid there will be a continuous loss

No one I've talked to has seen any Play or discard button.

Where is the preference to make it more like the old graphics?
I tried starting a new game, but I do not see those options under Table Configuration.

found it: upper right "3 bars" in game (where I abandon)
Hm, does not help much.

Playing on a mobile Phone, I spent 4 minutes trying to play a card, unsuccesfully
Drag and drop doesnt work, as the selected card does not follow my finger's movement, making the drop not possible.
Can we have the play/discard buttons back ?

I have the same problem on my android phone. Can't play by drag and drop.

Also, the table will not load on iPad.

Thanks all for your feedback. Changing are difficult, we all know it, but with your help we're going to fix the remaining issues.

Answer on the first post.

It was a bug on mobile/touchscreens => has been fixed few minutes ago.

also not sure why the need to invert the other players cards (new cards from right) just an extra issue old players will have to deal with.

This is what happened in real life please choose 'Stacked' to get back the old layout.

1. The amount of mistakes is harder to see because it is just some random background color, not the clear 1-2-3 mistake tokens we had before.

This is not random: each red tile is a mistake.

2. Giving a clue is even worse now. Have to select a card, then "more options", then finding what you want to give. This takes 3-4 clicks each time whereas we used to have 2 clicks every time. Horrible. Shame!

Except that 95% of the time you are giving one of the 2 proposed clues.
Old interface: 2 clicks at opposite sides of the screen. New interface: 2 clicks really closed, same side of the screen => faster.

I have to admit I am very disappointed about this release. As an alpha reviewer I mentioned the problem with the drag&drop on mobile since about 1 month. It was completely ignored. Why do you have alpha review phase if the comments are ignored?

Sorry, but no bugs has been reported about this: https://boardgamearena.com/bugs?game=1211
