Board Game Arena

I'm new here, so apologies if this already exists.

I've come here because of my interest in Hive. I tried to sit in on a couple games in hopes of learning by watching, but they were not played in real time. I noticed the "Replay game from this point" feature and it sounded perfect!

But it replays all the moves so quickly that I can't possibly think about each board position, what the possible moves were, and why the player might have done what he did.

Is there any chance we could get a couple buttons moving backwards or forwards by one turn per click? I think people might be able to learn a lot by studying what better players have done.

No, isn't possible.

But when a game ends, you can replay played games slowly (any game)

Thanks Oso. I was able to find a game and step through it. Just what I was hoping for!

Also, if you have java, there are tons of Hive replays at boardspace.net, including all the past annual tournaments (around the beginning of May every year). It is a great resource:
