Board Game Arena

Blackout is the most annoying card. I can take notes separately if I want to anyway. Memorizing what everyone had is more effort than I want to spend in a casual game.

Agreed, especially because the chat logs basically make it pointless anyway!

That bug vote option has already more than 100 green thumbs. Is there anyone checking these things for the gang?

The game was probably coded by a volunteer, and they don't have the time and energy to address bug reports. BGA is really bad at fixing bugs.

As a paying premium member, I have an expectation that all bug reports I file or vote for be taken seriously.

"The Gang" is a relatively popular game, so it should get some resources. Broken cards are banned in other games, like Agricola.

Hanabi has an unofficial variant where players get an extra card.

I think this issue could ideally be addressed the same way with an unofficial variant of 'No Blackout' , but i wouldnt be fussed if 'No Blackout' became the default.

I agree it make the game significantly more challenging.
