Dear players,
As you know, last year we started to set up important changes in the BGA UX to make it more modern, intuitive and easy to use.
After the new player panel (top right), the new friends panel, the new design for the mobile version of BGA, the new rich search bar, and the new games list, we are happy to introduce the first visible step of the future "Game page" today, the page that gives you information about each game.
The components of the page have been visually reorganized to make them clearer and more accessible on all devices. The goal of this first step is to give you information and media that inspire you to try each game: videos, images, a description, and so on.
For now, the page does not have much more functionality than the previous one, so you should be familiar with most of the elements displayed on the page. However, the page is much more adapted to the size of your screen, whether you have a very large screen or a small smartphone.
The page also makes it clearer what the two main actions that you can do are: Learn and Play. It also gives priority to Tutorials for learning games, when they are available.
For now, this page is not 100% optimized for the games you already know/have played. This is why we are only talking about a "first step" for this page: the organization of this page can be easily changed depending on the context, and our intention is to provide you the most useful information first depending on how you are playing each game.
However, we chose to move forward because the page is already much better than the previous one and because we need your feedback to improve the page and make it even better.
The best now is to try it yourself!

We are happy to see that, despite some difficulties during the latest changes, you are already familiar with our new pages. Your feedback was greatly appreciated and allowed us to improve these new pages a lot, especially the latest one (new game list), so we would like to thank you for this!
As we said in the previous months: this is not the last update, and more changes are coming to BGA to make this service faster, more intuitive, and easier to use. Changes are always difficult, but to see you using this service more and more is our best reward.
