Ranking games based on their attributes (mainly strategy and luck).

When using the "Games" button on the BGA titlebar, there are a number of ways to list games.
However, with the exception of "Complexity", I don't see a way to rank on their other assigned attributes.

I suggest making a page where you can rank via attribute, and also see the other attributes in the rankings, along with some other information such as number of players.

I'm only a Hive player here, although I might play Chess or something, but it'd be nice to know what other high-strategy low-luck games there are here.

Aside: Why does Chess have a luck value higher than 0? Hive has luck = 0 and IMHO starting as white is more advantageous for Hive than for Chess.

Hi,

Thanks for reporting this mistake for Chess game description. The attributes have been updated.

As for extra filters, as the number of games grows, indeed they would be useful. We'll get there someday and they'll appear ;)

If you like pure strategy games like Chess and Hive, I'd advise Quoridor, Gyges, Battle Sheep, Pylos, Gomoku, Neutreeko.

Best,
Een
