CLASSIC COLLECTION 2: Games you may already know or not!

[Klagarn]

There's thousands of stock images of card/dice games (with or without cartoon faces!) if you don't want to draw an original, there's no need for a melting AI nightmare land

I would love to see Canasta added as a classic game! I don't know enough people in my day-to-day life who know the game and it is a true fun classic card game.

So if the prompt was to respond in the comments with which of those "traditional" games we like and/or which we'd like to see on BGA, I say:
CANASTA!

I would love to play stratego here on BGA.

I LOVE Rummy. Welcome to BGA
Can you please add King to the list? It is one of my favourites

Please consider adding JASS, the Swiss card game which could be considered the chess of cards

Spades, Hearts, Canasta, and a host of other games. I hope they put a little more effort making it possible to create communities on this site. Many of these classic games were driven off other sites by trolls sabotaging game play and rankings. It is great there is so much novelty but these classic games hold far more appeal for me.

I do wonder if it would be an idea to have an option to have the public domain games available to play from same IP address, BUT if they do, they have the ELO scores stopped (unless they are premium members). It might be nice for example for people to be able to play some of the classic games with grandparents remotely.

I'd like to see Switch added, it's a variant of Crazy 8s, and the version known in the UK as Black Jack allows players to lay down multiple cards in melds and runs which speeds up the game, and means that if you have a big pick up, it can sometimes work in your favour

Escoba would be a wonderful classic game addition.

Escoba would be a wonderful classic game addition.

Please check if you are talking about the same Escoba which is on BGA as a variant of Scopa: https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=scopa

Jass seems to be of the same family as Coinche, Belote and Klaverjassen. Maybe you would like to try them?
