Board Game Arena

Hello fellow board gamers,

I know, the famous wooden BGA background has some kind of nostalgic value to the veterans here, but to me and my group it just looks outdated and - to be honest - not very pretty, so an option to switch it to a plain colour would be nice. Does something like that already exist or are there any plans to implement it?

Thank you in advance and happy gaming!

Some games offer a different background. If so, you can find it via the hamburger menu in the top right corner during the gameplay. If the game you are talking about hasn't any alternative, you may enter a suggestion for that game here: https://boardgamearena.com/bugs

I’ll also note that there’s an extension that allows you to replace the wooden background with a plain background. It does a lot more than that, but that’s one thing it can do.

Thank you for the quick answers and the recommendation. The extension does wonders!
