Start a game from the game's page?

Hi all,

I think I must be missing something. If I'm on a game page (for example https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=lettertycoon ) there doesn't appear to be a way to start a game.

Am I correct that if I am on the page for a game, I have to leave that page, go to "Play Now", search for the game that I was just looking at, and start it from there?

Is that right? What am I missing?

I'm hoping I'm just being stupid and can't see something obvious.


(Sorry, I can't search to see if this has been asked before because the forum search won't let me use "start" and "game" in a search... )

It's maddening, but you're right, there's no way to start a game from the game pages.

Aha! Thank you! I assumed it was something as simple as that, but didn't find the change request in my search.

Thank you!!
