Board Game Arena

Forbidden Island, is a Cooperative game,
and by its nature it works better with good communication between the players.

However, the online forum makes this communication somewhat difficult, because this format hinders it in some ways.

I think there needs to be a way to indicate to players that you intend to have them trade with you for certain cards,
and possibly to assist in discussing the best places to shore up.

This needs to go beyond the Chat box, as so many players do not pay attention to that, or may have language difficulties.

doesn't that add to the element of the game.

What if you were really stranded on an island with a Koeran, an Italian and a guy from Glasgow.

Yeah it would be nice if you could vote for tiles to be shored up, or have I need an earth card, or something like that. Maybe a button to tap somewhere
