Board Game Arena

We've played Just One 3 or 4 times and have had multiple repeated cards...

Seems an easy win to chuck in some random words from a dictionary, though I appreciate that might deviate from the words that are on the cards in the real game.

Thanks!!!!

You can vote for the suggestion here: https://boardgamearena.com/bug?id=67639

However, if you read the discussion on that page, the game publisher has already declined the idea of adding more words to the game. There are 550 (110 cards of 5 words each) in English, and another 550 in French, so apparently the publisher thinks that's enough.

I think the publisher missed a trick. The easy thing to do would be to have a game variant that allows the clue checker each round to also create the target word noun for everyone to write clues for. That way boredom is avoided and no extra work for the publisher.

It always cracks me up when there are simple workarounds and they can't see them for looking, or possibly an unwillingness to look. It would take 2 minutes to add that to the online PDF rules and make it official.

It would also help avoid the situation of the clue checker not knowing the target word and thereby cancelling valid clues through ignorance/confusion
