Board Game Arena

I would be interested in being able to add two additional optional rules for the premium game Saboteur, however I cannot find it on the BGA Studio. Is this due to the game's premium status?

Is there a process to allow development on these games?

The optional rules I am considering:

- Discard cards face-up.
- A card can only be discarded if you cannot currently play it - e.g. there are no valid spots for the card, or you currently have broken tools and thus cannot play tunnel cards

We find these rules make the role of the Saboteur much more challenging and exciting

Most likely this was one of the games that was made before studio by one of the admins. So source is not easily available without a bit of work and as you can imagine the admins are a bit busy at the moment dealing with the massive surge in demand. There is also the design decisions of the developer to consider.

Best bet is to wait a few weeks for things to calm down and ask again

There's also one thing to know about variants for games on BGA: usually only official variants are available on BGA, or at least accepted by the publisher or designer.
