Board Game Arena

Sorry for my ignorance regarding licensing, but I wondered about this since I joined BGA: Is it possible to bring Settlers of Catan to BGA ??

PS: hopefully this is the right forum section for this question ...

It's also just named Catan now.

thanks even voted there before

So to verify, the problem is that no dev. wanted to do it until now - but there are no legal issues, right ?

On the contrary, I'm pretty sure the problem is that the publisher don't want to give BGA a licence to have the game on this platform. Unlike with some other lesser-known games, it's not likely that the BGA team have simply never thought to ask for this licence!

I’d be super surprised if no dev could be found who wanted to do this game
