Online Board game
Online Board game
The world's #1 platform for playing board games online. Play hundreds of board games from your browser for free.
I just wanted to share this amazing platform for playing board games online.
It has a huge selection of games, with good translations to many languages.
Love the concept; are they open source? Would love to get gaming further away from the big companies. If it's "free" now, how are users paying for it, with data? Ads? We've seen a well documented history of enshittification so before I dump time into a platform that's my 1a question.
There's a bunch of games that are premium, and require at least 1 player in the game with premium membership to be able to start playing. There's also various other benefits for premium members, like allowing multiple players from the same IP
Fucking. Love. BGA.
Super cheap and gives access to SO many games.
i usually only play on tabletop sim because it's so easy to make your own games, but maybe bga would be good for more "serious" games.
idk, for me board games are an inherently social activity and the ability to fuck around with the pieces really helps tts feel social.
It's great, I have an asynchrone terraforming mars game running with some friends
I tried caverna and learned caverna there before buying it. It's a fantastic platform, wish it had more solo and games where tou can play against ai though.
I want to use this, but I don't want to play without my wife and you need to pay to play with someone who has the same IP address as you. No way I'm paying them just to try it out. I get why they do it, but it's complete and utter BS from my perspective since I want to play these games to try them out before buying.
Maybe one of you could use a VPN or something
Yeah, we'd have to. I just don't really care enough to get one just for this because I prefer to play board games IRL. I literally would only use this to try out games with my wife to decide whether to buy them, but they want cash up front for that.
A home VPN, to be clear. Basically to connect to your home network from away.
I love bga, I should really be more active on there instead of doom scrolling.
But playing against strangers is scary 😄
Btw my username on bga is Marcel80
Hi I'm a stranger let me touch your face
I also heart cheese 👉👈
Ewww cheese, nooooo! 😄
I'm a HUGE fan of BGA!
I always keep it open in the background at work just in case my turn pops up.
Feel free to send me a friend request or game invite! Same username as here.
I prefer physical games, but I like using BGA to test a game before I buy it. It's awesome.
My friend and I like playing Carcassonne and turning on every single expansion pack.
How's the catapult in BGA?
