No.... so so so sad . I really hoped to get that version back on BGA!

WOOOOHOOOO!!!!!!

Will BGA ever get the ability to host Batman Love Letter? The mechanic where you get a point for knocking someone out with Batman really helped that game.

sample size of one, but seeing this post reminded me of this games existence and i just bought it while at the game store, so, good job developers/publishers

BGA decided to take out several of the fun cards when playing with five players including the priestess and the 9 card. Also no jesters, assassins, psychophants and now 6 is a new card (which is actually a decent addition) And we have pointless spies that are just completely luck based. This game is now 75% luck whereas before if you were playing the five-player version it was 75% strategy.

While I agree the 2019 edition could have been better, it was definitely a step in the right direction from the 2016 premium version (or the 5 player version to you). Yes the Bishop, assassin and Dowager Queen were great additions; other cards such as the cardinal, which allows you to ruin someone else's round, and the constable, which is a 98% chance of a free point, are both game breaking cards and increase the luck factor substantially. The 2016 version clearly needed more playtesting which is why the 2019 is a better version, even if it isn't as exciting.

Add Arkham: Lovecraft Letter next!

The new art is a total dump. Way too bland and generic.

I am just astounded by how bad this new version is. The BGA implementations have been getting so good, it was stunning to see something that would have felt like garbage 10 years ago. Why is there so much blank space on the screen while the cards are tiny and barely readable? It doesn't help that the new art is a downgrade in every way. Just sad to see one of my favorite games botched.

This is such a shame

Does this game play well turn-based on BGA? Or mainly a real-time game?
