I just played a game bandido and won for the first time but haven't got +5 gif points. It says you get +5 you win each new game. Please give me these +5 gift points.

No, no.

Bandido is a cooperative team game, unless you play it by yourself, alone, in training mode.

You only get the X Victories Trophies (1st. Victory Trophy also giving you the 5 Gift Points) when you win games AGAINST OTHERS (So not in a cooperative team game, like BANDIDO or HANABI).
And you also have to win that game ALONE, against any other player in that game, so this leaves out WEREWOLVES (unless you are a winning WWW or 1 single WW winner, the other one being lover) or SPADES.

You can play Bandido by yourself, alone, but only in training mode, and recently, BGA stopped giving wins in games someone wins in training mode. Here is the link explaining this change: https://boardgamearena.com/forum/viewto ... &start=150

Fortunately, I won my 5 Gift Points in Bandido, playing by myself in training mode, and winning, but before this change came. After that, I saw that after playing by myself a game of Bandido and winning, the victory was not registered.

So as i see it... you can only get the 5 gift points in Bandido (or Hanabi), if you play in 2, and your partner quits or times out and you expel him/her.
Correct me if i am wrong.

If you want, you can try Thermopyles - you play it alone (by yourself), in Normal Game (not Training Mode), so if you win, you get your X Victories Trophies, as well as the 5 gift points after the first win.
