Board Game Arena

With games like Builders and others that feature even number of turns it is important at the end of a round to know if your turn was the final close or if they get one more round after you. It would be quite useful if there was an icon added to games like these that will sit by player summary card that shows who was the start player.

Thanks for consideration, I know this probably means a change to those individual games rather than website itself. It should hopefully be easy to code since it doesn't interact or change just gets assigned during game setup.

Um, doesn't Takenoko not have an even number of turns? When one player reveals their nth card to trigger end game, they get the Emperor card and everyone else gets one turn. Looking at revealed cards will show who has the Emperor, and therefore who still can play.

I'm not saying this is a bad idea, I'm just saying it doesn't apply in at least one of the examples you have listed.

There is one in builders: a small card featuring the cathedral plan.

Thank you olly! I asked a good 5 people to make sure I wasn't being silly and blind (I am NOT a visual person). No one else saw it either! It is in the tableau instead of in the player summary box. But now I know where to look. Thanks.

I wouldn't feel too silly. It's not that obvious. And it would be better placed, and more obvious, if it were on the player summaries, which I think is where most people would expect something like that to be.
