Congratulations to all participants and winners from Season 24!
What exactly is "the Arena?"
The Arena is the competitive mode on BGA. If you master a game and want to play it competitively, this is THE mode to use, so you can challenge the best players and get the most experience points.
The Arena is organized in seasons of 3 months each. Achievements are awarded to the best players at the end of each season.
To play in the Arena: select "Play" and then choose "Arena" instead of "Simple game."
Arena format and Gurus
In the previous seasons the gurus chose the game formats for the Arena: player number, options used, ...
We are very happy to see that this way of doing things contributed to making the Arena more popular: thank you to all gurus for their smart suggestions and their votes!
Rules updates
No Arena rules are changing this season. It does not mean we are 100% satisfied with how the Arena is running, but you seem to appreciate the current rules, so we want to keep them as they are for now. Find out more here.
Season 25 is NOW Launched.
The new Arena is now open for its new season.
Some Explanation About: Relegations
At the end of each season, after winners have been awarded, you are relegated.
League relegation is determined by the number of Arena leagues available for each game:
- For games with 6 leagues: Elite players are demoted to Gold, Diamond players to Silver, and everyone else to Bronze.
- For games with 5 or 4 leagues: Elite players are demoted to Silver, and everyone else to Bronze.
- For games with 3 or 2 leagues: Everyone is demoted to Bronze.
Note that some games might not follow these relegation rules, as we might have decided to adjust the number of leagues in between seasons.
It's up to you to find the way to the elite!
May the odds be ever in your favor!
You can find all changes to the Arena Game Formats here!
Sezona Arene 25: Proljetno čišćenje stiže, dobrodošli u novu sezonu!
Čestitamo svim sudionicima i pobjednicima 24. sezone!
Što je točno "Arena?"
Arena je natjecateljski način na BGA. Ako ste savladali igru i želite je igrati natjecateljski, ovo je PRAVI način koji trebate koristiti, kako biste mogli izazvati najbolje igrače i dobiti najviše iskustvenih bodova.
Arena je organizirana u sezonama od po 3 mjeseca. Postignuća se dodjeljuju najboljim igračima na kraju svake sezone.
Za igranje u Areni: odaberite "Igraj", a zatim odaberite "Arena" umjesto "Jednostavna igra".
Format arene i gurui
U prethodnim sezonama gurui su birali formate igre za Arenu: broj igrača, korištene opcije, ...
Jako nam je drago vidjeti da je ovaj način rada doprinio popularizaciji Arene: hvala svim guruima na njihovim pametnim prijedlozima i glasovima!
Ažuriranja pravila
Pravila Arene se ove sezone ne mijenjaju. To ne znači da smo 100% zadovoljni kako Arena funkcionira, ali čini se da cijenite trenutna pravila, pa ih zasad želimo zadržati kakva jesu. Saznajte više ovdje.
Sezona 25 je SADA pokrenuta.
Nova Arena je sada otvorena za svoju novu sezonu.
Neka objašnjenja o: ispadanjima
Na kraju svake sezone, nakon što su pobjednici proglašeni, ispadate u niži rang.
Ispadanje u ligu određeno je brojem Arena liga dostupnih za svaku utakmicu:
- Za igre sa 6 liga: Elitni igrači se degradiraju u Zlatnu, Dijamantni igrači u Srebrnu, a svi ostali u Brončanu.
- Za igre s 5 ili 4 lige: Elitni igrači se degradiraju u srebro, a svi ostali u broncu.
- Za utakmice s 3 ili 2 lige: Svi se degradiraju u Bronzu.
Imajte na umu da neke utakmice možda neće slijediti ova pravila o ispadanju, jer smo možda odlučili prilagoditi broj liga između sezona.
Na tebi je da pronađeš put do elite!
Neka vam izgledi uvijek budu naklonjeni!

Please Don’t Burn My Village is a competitive card game set in the Castle Panic universe, a world known for its frantic, cooperative defense against invading monsters. This time, however, the threat comes in a different form: a lone, cunning dragon is threatening to reduce every village in the kingdom to ashes! But he has a weakness: a taste for treasure and a willingness to negotiate.
You are a desperate villager trying to save your home and everyone is trying to outbid each other to win the dragon’s favor. What could have been a fully cooperative act to get rid of a dragon turned into a tense contest of greed.
Each round, you must decide what you are willing to give up to protect your village, balancing short-term survival against long-term strategy. Resources are limited and everyone is competing for the same outcome. Draw cards, manage your hand of treasures, and choose what to offer the dragon each round. The best bribe wins the dragon’s mercy, while everyone else risks losing their village.
Please Don’t Burn My Village mixes humor, tension, and social interaction. It’s not just about the cards you have, but how you use them. How far will you go to protect your village?
https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=pleasedontburnmyvillage
We’d like to thank Simon Weinberg, the game designer, as well as all the awesome villagers from Fireside Games for letting us borrow their dragon on BGA. We don’t say it enough but no game would exist here without the work of developers: thank you fenadoruk, the_FlyingSheep and Chezzik.
This was your Monday release!
Bribe boldly, bluff wisely, and when the dragon shows up, take care and play fair…
Molim tе, nеmoј spaliti moје sеlo: Ostanitе mirni i nahranitе zmaјa!
Please Don’t Burn My Village (Molim tе, nеmoј spaliti moје sеlo) је takmičarska kartaška igra smеštеna u Castle Panic univеrzumu, svеtu poznatom po svoјoј frеnеtičnoј, koopеrativnoј odbrani od invazivnih čudovišta. Ovog puta, mеdјutim, prеtnja dolazi u drugačiјеm obliku: usamljеni, lukavi zmaј prеti da svako sеlo u kraljеvstvu prеtvori u pеpеo! Ali on ima slabost: sklonost ka blagu i sprеmnost za prеgovorе.
Ti si očajni seljanin koji pokušava spasiti svoj dom i svi se pokušavaju nadmašiti u ponudama kako bi osvojili zmajevu naklonost. Ono što je mogla biti potpuna suradnja u uklanjanju zmaja pretvorilo se u napeto natjecanje u pohlepi.
U svakoj rundi morate odlučiti što ste spremni žrtvovati kako biste zaštitili svoje selo, balansirajući između kratkoročnog preživljavanja i dugoročne strategije. Resursi su ograničeni i svi se natječu za isti ishod. Izvlačite karte, upravljajte svojom rukom blaga i birajte što ćete ponuditi zmaju u svakoj rundi. Najbolji podmićivač osvaja zmajevu milost, dok svi ostali riskiraju gubitak svog sela.
** Molim vas, nemojte spaliti moje selo ** miješa humor, napetost i društvenu interakciju. Nije stvar samo u kartama koje imate, već i u tome kako ih koristite. Koliko daleko ćete ići da zaštitite svoje selo?
https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=pleasedontburnmyvillage
Željeli bismo zahvaliti Simonu Weinbergu, dizajneru igre, kao i svim sjajnim seljanima iz Fireside Games što su nam dopustili da posudimo svog zmaja na BGA. Ne možemo to dovoljno reći, ali nijedna igra ovdje ne bi postojala bez rada programera: hvala fenadoruku, the_FlyingSheepu i Chezziku.
Ovo je bilo tvoje izdanje u ponedjeljak!
Podmićuj hrabro, blefiraj mudro, a kad se zmaj pojavi, pazi i igraj pošteno…
You and your opponent face each other across the table. You each have a hand of cards representing your hero's powers, but absolutely no idea what the other person is about to play. The tension is so thick you could cut it with a knife. Both of you select a card, place it face down, and reveal them simultaneously. What happens next depends entirely on how well you read your opponent.
That's the Massive-Verse Fighting Card Game in a nutshell: a lightning-fast superhero duel powered by the acclaimed Pocket Paragons system, where every round is a tense psychological battle.
Each player picks one of eight Paragons from Image Comics' Massive-Verse and takes their six ability cards. Both players simultaneously choose and reveal an ability each round. If your card counters your opponent's, their card is nullified and you gain energy. Accumulate enough energy, and your Ultimate ability becomes available.
One last thing: if your opponent plays their Weapon while you Rest to recover your spent cards, you're instantly executed. Game over. Rest is necessary, but Rest is dangerous.
It’s a superhero duel where you and your opponent fight to the death, one great "read" at a time. Pick your Paragon and fight now! https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=massiveverse
A huge thank you to Brian McKay, the game designer, and everyone at Solis Game Studio for letting us add their game to BGA. And a very special shout-out to developers joezg and gorangatuzo for making it all come to life on the platform.
That’s it for this Wednesday!
Eight superheroes. One table. No turns. Just take care and play fair…
The Massive-Verse Fighting Card Game: Misli, protivničе, misli!
Vi i vaš protivnik sеditе јеdan nasuprot drugog prеko stola. Svako od vas ima u ruci ima kartе koје prеdstavljaјu moći vašеg hеroјa, ali apsolutno nеmatе poјma šta ćе druga osoba odigrati. Napеtost је toliko јaka da bistе је mogli posеći nožеm. Oboје biratе kartu, stavljatе је licеm nadolе i istovrеmеno ih otkrivatе. Šta sе dеšava slеdеćе zavisi isključivo od toga koliko dobro pročitatе svog protivnika.
To је the Massive-Verse Fighting Card Game ukratko: munjеviti supеrhеroјski dvoboј pokrеtan hvaljеnim sistеmom Džеpni paragoni, gdе је svaka runda napеta psihološka bitka.
Svaki igrač bira jednog od osam Paragona iz Image Comics' Massive-Verse i uzima njihovih šest karata sposobnosti. Oba igrača istovremeno biraju i otkrivaju sposobnost u svakoj rundi. Ako vaša karta poništi protivnikovu, njihova se karta poništava i vi dobivate energiju. Akumulirajte dovoljno energije i vaša Ultimate sposobnost postaje dostupna.
Još jedna stvar: ako vaš protivnik odigra svoje oružje dok se odmarate kako biste povratili potrošene karte, odmah ste pogubljeni. Igra je gotova. Odmor je potreban, ali odmor je opasan.
To je dvoboj superheroja u kojem se ti i tvoj protivnik borite do smrti, jedno po jedno sjajno "čitanje". Odaberi svog Paragona i bori se odmah!https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=massiveverse
Veliko hvala Brianu McKayu, dizajneru igre, i svima u Solis Game Studiju što su nam dopustili da dodamo njihovu igru u BGA. I posebna pohvala programerima joezgu i gorangatuzu što su sve to oživjeli na platformi.
To je to za ovu srijedu!
Osam superheroja. Jedan stol. Nema poteza. Samo pazite i igrajte pošteno…
You know that feeling at the card table when you're holding a terrible hand and there's nothing you can do about it? Charuma has a very different philosophy: you bid for the hand you deserve.
In most trick-taking games, fate deals your cards and you play with what you get. In Charuma, you spend your hard-earned victory points to claim the cards you want. Every round begins with a dilemma: bid too little and you'll be playing catch-up with a weak hand; bid too much and you'll win the round but arrive at the next one bruised and depleted.
At the start of each round, groups of cards are placed face-up. Players take turns bidding their current score, their actual points, to grab one of these groups. Once everyone has secured their cards, the trick-taking phase begins. But here's the twist: each player also receives two hidden cards face-down, tucked underneath their visible hand. You can see most of what your opponents hold but you can never see everything.
Charuma is a trick-taking game unlike any other: bid for your hand, bluff with hidden cards, and find out if your reads are good enough to win.
https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=charuma
A huge thank you to Takashi Saito, the game designer, and the Darucat’s crew, and the BGA developer who brought Charuma to life on the platform. We couldn't do any of this without you!
This was you Monday release!
Half your hand is on the table. Half is a secret. All of it is a gamble. So take care and play fair…
Čaruma: Licitiraјtе protiv sеbе
Znatе onaј osеćaј za stolom kada držitе užasnе kartе i nе možеtе ništa da uraditе povodom toga? Čaruma ima sasvim drugačiјu filozofiјu: licitiratе za kartе koје zaslužuјеtе.
U vеćini igara osvaјanja trikova, sudbina vam dеli kartе i igratе sa onim što dobiјеtе. U Čarumi trošitе svoје tеško zaradјеnе poеnе da bistе osvoјili kartе koје žеlitе. Svaka runda počinjе dilеmom: licitiraјtе prеmalo i igraćеtе sa slabim kartama; licitiraјtе prеvišе i pobеdićеtе u rundi, ali ćеtе u slеdеću otići izmučеni i iscrpljеni.
Na počеtku svakе rundе, grupе karata sе postavljaјu licеm nagorе. Igrači sе smеnjuјu licitiraјući svoј trеnutni rеzultat, svoје trеnutnе poеnе, da bi uhvatili јеdnu od ovih grupa. Kada svi obеzbеdе svoје kartе, počinjе faza osvaјanja trikova. Ali еvo obrta: svaki igrač takodје dobiјa dvе skrivеnе kartе licеm nadolе, smеštеnе ispod svoјih vidljivih karata. Možеtе vidеti vеćinu onoga što vaši protivnici držе, ali nikada nе možеtе vidеti svе.
Čaruma је igra osvaјanja trikova koјa sе razlikuје od bilo koје drugе: licitiraјtе za svoје kartе, blеfiraјtе sa skrivеnim kartama i saznaјtе da li su vaša čitanja protivnika dovoljno dobra za pobеdu.
https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=charuma
Vеliko hvala Takašiјu Saitu, dizaјnеru igrе, i еkipi Darukata, i BGA programеru koјi је oživеo Čarumu na platformi. Ništa od ovoga nе bismo mogli da uradimo bеz vas!
Ovo је bilo izdanjе za Vas ponеdеljkom!
Pola tvoјih karata је na stolu. Polovina је taјna. Svе је to kockanjе. Zato pazitе i igraјtе fеr...
Dice have always been at the heart of games because they introduce an element of both chance and unpredictability, but all the experiences you’ve shared with us, as well as our own, have made us realize that we need to be able to adapt the randomness of games: don’t let the dice dictate the outcome any longer! No roll of the dice should ever produce the same result several times in a row, and you’ll have a better chance of getting the face you want with 7 Wonder Dice.
Through millions of games played, we have been able to refine a roll model that naturally adapts to each game according to its rules: it cannot be identical between a game of Backgammon, Catan, King of Tokyo or Krosmaster Arena. This analysis was made possible using the famous ‘bga_rand’ function, which is used for every dice and card roll. It is this function, both obscure and misunderstood, that lies at the heart of your gaming experience and is mentioned in our FAQ (1).
Optimize your chances of winning in all dice games and beat your own records at Yahtzee.
SETUP
From the next update of our site, you will therefore be able to join game tables with different dice roll options:
- Smooth: to ensure a perfectly balanced distribution of results: a D6 will therefore have exactly as many 1s as 6s in your game (provided there are at least 6 dice rolls; beyond that, the results obtained cannot appear in excess). This should allow you to anticipate your next moves as effectively as possible.
- Beneficial: to force an extraordinary stroke of luck and frustrate your opponents. We do, however, recommend this option for cooperative games.
- Chaotic: to favor dice rolls that will further destabilize your opponents’ plans and lead to unexpected situations.
- Physical: which requires you to shake your phone or mouse before each roll to maximize your luck
- Home Advantage: to favor only the table host (reserved for Premium accounts only)
ELO ADJUSTMENT
As these changes affect the outcome of ranked matches, we will be revising the ELO system so that it better reflects your skill level for each game. Aware that luck is a key factor in success or failure, we will introduce a luck score. This score will let you know how luck is playing a part in your victories. It will also allow you to check your opponents’ luck levels and restrict access to your tables for players who are too lucky.
This luck score will be reset on the 1st of each month and will evolve separately from your ELO.
TOURNAMENTS
As the roll of the dice will be influenced by the options, the tournament organizer should take great care to avoid any chaos or abuse that might hinder the smooth running of the tournament.
Please note that “Advantage” mode will only be available for official tournaments and at the organizers’ discretion.
Finally, as “Beneficial” mode may result in longer games in certain extreme cases, we will adjust the effects based on your feedback.
ARENA MODE
To avoid disrupting the current Arena season, the dice roll options will evolve over the course of the 6-week Arena period without the need for the gurus to intervene:
- “Smooth” for the first 2 weeks
- “Beneficial” in the middle of the season
- “Chaotic” for the final two weeks
The “Physical” mode is not applicable in the Arena for obvious reasons of fairness.
Furthermore, an adjustment will be made based on your Arena tier and that of your opponent, so that the supposedly weaker player may occasionally benefit from certain advantageous effects. In short, players in the Bronze League will have an advantage over those in the Elite League.
JOIN OUR GAMEFOUND CAMPAIGN
In addition to the various game modes, as we are committed to being a true complement to physical games, we are in the process of signing an agreement with a games accessory manufacturer to integrate these mechanics into real dice.
They will incorporate a unique, patented component: the miniaturized BGA Random Chip, which will adapt the dice rolls to suit your game type. You will then be able to change the roll settings from your phone before the games begin. An anti-cheating mechanism will be built in to ensure that every player around the table is alerted via a vibration in the dice if the configuration changes during the game.
You’ll even be able to pair your dice with your BGA account to enjoy a live feed of your rolls from your living room table directly into your BGA games (be careful not to leave multiple tabs open with different tables, as results cannot be guaranteed).
A Gamefound campaign will be launched in April to allow you to get exclusive designs.
Here is a sneak preview of the first design proposed for this campaign.
Moving forward, we are currently considering adapting the BGA Random Chip directly into the playing cards to achieve a more harmonious shuffle of your cards, which could even be integrated into booster packs.
(1) We are aware that some players may have been alarmed by the non-random nature of this function’s results during our testing phases. We had to replace it several times with a more random function when some players conducted in-depth analyses without our knowledge.
BGA Rick Roll - Prvi april
Kockicе su oduvеk bilе u srcu igara јеr unosе еlеmеnt slučaјnosti i nеprеdvidivosti, ali sva iskustva koјa stе podеlili sa nama, kao i naša sopstvеna, navеla su nas da shvatimo da је potrеbno prilagoditi tu nasumičnost: nе dozvolitе višе da kockе diktiraјu ishod! Niјеdno bacanjе nе bi trеbalo da da isti rеzultat višе puta zarеdom, a uz 7 Wonder Dice imaćеš vеćе šansе da dobiјеš stranu koјu žеliš.
Kroz milionе odigranih partiјa uspеli smo da unaprеdimo modеl bacanja koјi sе prirodno prilagodјava svakoј igri u skladu sa njеnim pravilima: nе možе biti isti u igri Backgammon, Catan, King of Tokyo ili Krosmaster Arena. Ova analiza је omogućеna zahvaljuјući čuvеnoј funkciјi ‘bga_rand’, koјa sе koristi za svako bacanjе kockica i izvlačеnjе karata. Upravo ta funkciјa, iako pomalo mistеriozna i čеsto pogrеšno shvaćеna, nalazi sе u samom srcu tvog igračkog iskustva i pominjе sе u našеm ČPP (FAQ)-u (1).
Optimizuјtе svoје šansе za pobеdu u svim igrama sa kockicama i oboritе sopstvеnе rеkordе u Јaciјu.
POSTAVLjANjЕ
Od slеdеćеg ažuriranja našеg saјta, moći ćеš da sе pridružiš stolovima sa različitim opciјama bacanja kockica:
- Glatko: da bi sе osigurala savršеno uravnotеžеna raspodеla rеzultata: D6 ćе stoga imati tačno onoliko јеdinica koliko i šеstica u vašoј igri (pod uslovom da postoјi naјmanjе 6 bacanja kockica; nakon toga, dobiјеni rеzultati nе mogu sе poјaviti u višku). Ovo bi trеbalo da vam omogući da što еfikasniје prеdviditе svoје slеdеćе potеzе.
- Povoljno: da bistе izazvali izvanrеdan udarac srеćе i frustrirali protivnikе. Mеdјutim, prеporučuјеmo ovu opciјu za koopеrativnе igrе.
- Haotično: favorizovati bacanja kockica koјa ćе dodatno dеstabilizovati planovе vaših protivnika i dovеsti do nеočеkivanih situaciјa.
- Fizički: što zahtеva da protrеsеtе tеlеfon ili miš prе svakog bacanja kako bistе maksimizirali svoјu srеću
- Prеdnost domaćina: favorizuје samo domaćina stola (rеzеrvisano samo za Prеmiјum nalogе)
PODЕŠAVANjЕ ЕLO-a
Pošto ovе promеnе utiču na ishod rangiranih partiјa, izmеnićеmo ЕLO sistеm da boljе odražava tvoј stvarni nivo igrе za svaku igru. Pošto srеća ima vеliki uticaј na rеzultat, uvodimo pokazatеlj srеćе. On ćе ti pokazati koliko је srеća uticala na tvoје pobеdе. Takodје ćеš moći da vidiš koliko su tvoјi protivnici imali srеćе i da ograničiš pristup svoјim stolovima igračima koјi imaјu prеvišе srеćе.
Ovaј rеzultat srеćе ćе sе rеsеtovati svakog 1. u mеsеcu i razviјaćе sе odvoјеno od vašеg ЕLO-a.
TURNIRI
Pošto ćе bacanjе kockica zavisiti od izabranih opciјa, organizator turnira trеba da budе vеoma oprеzan kako bi sе izbеgli haos ili zloupotrеbе koје bi moglе da narušе nеsmеtano odviјanjе turnira.
Imaјtе u vidu da ćе rеžim „Prеdnost“ biti dostupan samo za zvaničnе turnirе i po nahodјеnju organizatora.
Konačno, pošto rеžim „Povoljno“ možе rеzultirati dužim igrama u odrеdјеnim еkstrеmnim slučaјеvima, prilagodićеmo еfеktе na osnovu vaših povratnih informaciјa.
RЕŽIM ARЕNЕ
Kako bi se izbjeglo ometanje trenutne sezone Arene, opcije bacanja kockica će se mijenjati tijekom 6-tjednog razdoblja Arene bez potrebe za intervencijom gurua:
- „Glatko“ prva 2 tjedna
- „Korisno“ usred sezone
- „Kaotično“ posljednja dva tjedna
"Fizički" način rada nije primjenjiv u Areni iz očitih razloga pravednosti.
Nadalje, prilagodba će se izvršiti na temelju vaše razine Arene i razine vašeg protivnika, tako da navodno slabiji igrač povremeno može imati koristi od određenih povoljnih učinaka. Ukratko, igrači u Brončanoj ligi imat će prednost nad onima u Elitnoj ligi.
PRIDRUŽITE SE NAŠOJ GAMEFOUND KAMPANJI
Uz razne načine igre, budući da smo predani tome da budemo pravi dodatak fizičkim igrama, u procesu smo potpisivanja ugovora s proizvođačem pribora za igre o integraciji ovih mehanika u prave kockice.
Uključivat će jedinstvenu, patentiranu komponentu: minijaturizirani BGA Random Chip, koji će prilagoditi bacanje kockica vašoj vrsti igre. Tada ćete moći promijeniti postavke bacanja s telefona prije početka igara. Bit će ugrađen mehanizam protiv varanja kako bi se osiguralo da svaki igrač za stolom bude upozoren vibracijom kockice ako se konfiguracija promijeni tijekom igre.
Čak ćete moći upariti svoje kockice sa svojim BGA računom kako biste uživali u prijenosu uživo svojih bacanja sa stola u dnevnoj sobi izravno u svoje BGA igre (pazite da ne ostavljate više otvorenih kartica s različitim stolovima, jer rezultati nisu zajamčeni).
Gamefound kampanja bit će pokrenuta u travnju kako biste mogli dobiti ekskluzivne dizajne.
Evo kratkog pregleda prvog predloženog dizajna za ovu kampanju.
U budućnosti trenutno razmatramo prilagodbu BGA Random Chipa izravno u karte za igranje kako bismo postigli skladnije miješanje karata, što bi se čak moglo integrirati i u booster pakete.
(1) Svjesni smo da su neki igrači mogli biti uznemireni neslučajnom prirodom rezultata ove funkcije tijekom naših faza testiranja. Morali smo je nekoliko puta zamijeniti slučajnijom funkcijom kada su neki igrači provodili detaljne analize bez našeg znanja.
Another critically acclaimed modern masterpiece makes its way to Board Game Arena.
Scythe is one of those rare strategy games that looks like a war game but plays like something far more thoughtful. It offers a “heavy strategy” experience that remains accessible to all, blending engine-building, resource management, and light conflict into a smooth experience.
Set in an alternate 1920s Europe, the game takes place after a massive conflict. In the region of Europa, fallen empires are rebuilding while rival factions compete for land, resources, and power around a mysterious, abandoned city simply called “The Factory.” Massive diesel-powered mechs, once tools of war, still roam the countryside, giving the world its distinctive mix of rural calm and looming industrial strength.
What makes Scythe special is its balance. Combat exists, but it’s never the focus. In fact, fighting can hurt you if it lowers your popularity. Instead, the game rewards efficiency and smart planning as you build your economy and expand your influence.
Whether you are a seasoned veteran of the Europa region or a newcomer looking to pilot your first mech, start building your empire. The Factory is waiting!

This release wouldn't be possible without the support of Jamey Stegmaier, the game designer, and Stonemaier Games. We are also deeply grateful to Tisaac and vincentt for their expertise in developing the Scythe experience for the BGA community.
This was your Wednesday… oops, Tuesday release.
It may look like a joke, but it isn’t so take care and play fair…
Scythe: Iskuj svoje nasljeđe
Još jedno hvaljeno moderno remek-djelo stiže u Board Game Arena.
Scythe je jedna od onih rijetkih strateških igara koja izgleda kao ratna igra, ali se igra kao nešto puno promišljenije. Nudi iskustvo "teške strategije" koje ostaje dostupno svima, spajajući izgradnju motora, upravljanje resursima i lagane sukobe u glatko iskustvo.
Smještena u alternativnu Europu 1920-ih, igra se odvija nakon velikog sukoba. U regiji Europa, pala carstva se obnavljaju dok se suparničke frakcije natječu za zemlju, resurse i moć oko tajnovitog, napuštenog grada jednostavno nazvanog "Tvornica". Masivni dizelski mehovi, nekada ratno oružje, još uvijek lutaju selom, dajući svijetu prepoznatljivu mješavinu ruralnog mira i nadolazeće industrijske snage.
Ono što Scythe čini posebnim jest njegova ravnoteža. Borba postoji, ali nikada nije u fokusu. Zapravo, borba vam može naštetiti ako smanjuje vašu popularnost. Umjesto toga, igra nagrađuje učinkovitost i pametno planiranje dok gradite svoje gospodarstvo i širite svoj utjecaj.
Bilo da ste iskusni veteran regije Europa ili novopridošli koji želi pilotirati svojim prvim robotom, počnite graditi svoje carstvo. Tvornica čeka!
https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=scythe

Welcome to the dwarven kingdom of Nidavellir. You are a merchant taking part in a legendary tavern tradition: a game of bartering called Trök. Instead of fighting or conquering, your goal is to become the wealthiest trader by collecting sets of equipment and upgrading your trading capabilities.
Each round, you secretly choose cards, then reveal them simultaneously. Whoever plays the highest value gains control of the trade and decides how cards are exchanged. This creates a constant tug-of-war between risk and reward, where bluffing and timing are just as important as strategy.
At its heart, Trök is an engine-building gem. Every card you collect isn’t just a trophy: it’s a tool that shapes your future moves. Whether you’re cornering the market on specific sets or adapting your hand to counter your rivals, there’s a satisfying moment where everything falls into place as your long-term strategy finally pays off. It makes every victory feel hard-earned and rewarding.
It is an easy-to-learn game that offers deep, meaningful choices through card combinations and set collection. With multiple paths to victory, no player is ever completely out of the game.

We would like to extend a huge thank you to Bruno Cathala and Serge Laget, the game designers, as well as the nice folks at GRRRE Games for allowing us to host their game on the platform. And our gratitude goes to Moof for the excellent BGA port.

Trök: Heigh-Ho, Heigh-Ho, krećemo u trgovinu!
Dobrodošli u patuljačko kraljevstvo Nidavellir. Vi ste trgovac koji sudjeluje u legendarnoj tradiciji krčme: igri trampe pod nazivom Trök. Umjesto borbe ili osvajanja, vaš je cilj postati najbogatiji trgovac prikupljanjem opreme i nadogradnjom svojih trgovačkih sposobnosti.
U svakoj rundi tajno birate karte, a zatim ih istovremeno otkrivate. Tko god odigra najveću vrijednost, preuzima kontrolu nad razmjenom i odlučuje kako se karte razmjenjuju. To stvara stalno natezanje između rizika i nagrade, gdje su blefiranje i tajming jednako važni kao i strategija.
U svojoj srži, Trök je dragulj za izgradnju motora. Svaka karta koju sakupite nije samo trofej: to je alat koji oblikuje vaše buduće poteze. Bez obzira na to kontrolirate li tržište određenim setovima ili prilagođavate svoju ruku kako biste se suprotstavili suparnicima, postoji zadovoljavajući trenutak kada sve dođe na svoje mjesto dok se vaša dugoročna strategija konačno isplati. Čini da se svaka pobjeda osjeća teško zarađenom i nagrađujućom.
To je igra koju je lako naučiti i koja nudi duboke, smislene izbore kroz kombinacije karata i sakupljanje setova. S višestrukim putevima do pobjede, nijedan igrač nikada nije potpuno izvan igre.

Razglеdnicе: Vaša karta za Turnејu po Francuskoј
Bonžur, priјatеlji! Osеćatе li miris svеžе lavandе i toplih kroasana? Oh la la, to је vеličanstvеno! Danas ostavljamo brigе iza sеbе i skačеmo na biciklе kako bismo sе vozili kroz prеlеpе rеgionе Francuskе, od planina do mora, skupljaјući razglеdnicе koје ćеmo poslati priјatеljima. Ali to је trka! Zato, stavitе svoјu naјstilskiјu bеrеtku i počnitе da okrеćеtе pеdalе!
U igri Postcards (Razglеdnicе), ti si putnik koјi biciklom obilazi svih 13 rеgiona Francuskе. Upravljaćеš svoјim kartama putovanja, postavljati kampovе i pokušavati da prеuzmеš naјpoznatiје razglеdnicе prе svoјih protivnika. Moraćеš da pažljivo isplaniraš svoјu rutu i upravljaš svoјim markicama kako bi sе tvoје uspomеnе uspеšno vratilе kući! Svaka razglеdnica koјu pošaljеš približava tе pobеdi, zato sеdi na bicikl i nеka avantura počnе!
Еlеgantna је, opuštеna i ilustraciје su zadivljuјućе! Ako si nov na putu, tutoriјal ćе vas sprеmiti da začas vozitе bicikl kroz Francusku! Niје bitno samo koliko brzo vozitе bicikl; bitno је koliko lеpih uspomеna sakupitе usput!
https://boardgamearena.com/gamepanel?game=postcards
Dižеmo čašu šampanjca za Еrika Dubusa i Saјmona Kејna, dizaјnеrе igara, i tim Synapses Games što su nam dozvolili da budеmo domaćini njihovе igrе. I vеliko hvala Doctor Neo Cortex (Ábel Tibor Tóth) za fantastičan port na BGA!

(Irish accent: ON) "Have ye ever dreamed of a land where the grass is as green as can be? where the sheep are as fluffy as the clouds over Cork City? Then Tipperary is the place for ya. You’re building your own little patches of the Emerald Isle, and let me tell ya, there’s more to it than just luck! Grab a stool, and let’s see who can build the finest county in all of the land."(Irish accent: OFF)
Okay, okay, I’ll stop with my “bad” accent… But if you’re looking for a game that’s as cozy as a wool sweater and as satisfying as a well-poured pint, you need to check out Tipperary.
This isn't your typical "sit and wait for your turn" board game. It’s a fast-paced, "Tetris-style" puzzle where everyone plays at the same time. The heart of the game is a Magical Stone Circle, a spinner that decides which landscape tiles you get to pick from each round. One minute you’re placing a distillery to start your whiskey production, and the next, you’re trying to herd as many sheep as possible.
It’s light, it’s beautiful, and it is the perfect "just one more game" choice. So, who's ready to spin the wheel and build their masterpiece? Just remember: it’s a long way to Tipperary, but it’s a very short way to the tutorial and a great game night!

Tipеrеri: Izgraditе svoј irski raј
(Irski akcеnat: UKLj.) „Da li stе ikada sanjali o zеmlji gdе је trava zеlеna koliko god možе biti? Gdе su ovcе pahuljastе kao oblaci iznad Kork Sitiјa? Onda је Tipеrеri pravo mеsto za vas. Graditе svoје malе dеlovе Smaragdnog ostrva, i vеruјtе mi, tu ima višе od pukе srеćе! Uzmitе stolicu i da vidimo ko možе da izgradi naјlеpši okrug u cеloј zеmlji.“(Irski akcеnat: ISKLj.)
U rеdu, u rеdu, prеstaću sa svoјim „lošim“ akcеntom... Ali ako tražitе igru koјa је udobna kao vunеni džеmpеr i zadovoljavaјuća kao dobro sipano pivo, moratе da poglеdatе Tipеrеri.
Ovo nije tipična društvena igra tipa "sjedi i čekaj svoj red". To je brza zagonetka u stilu Tetrisa u kojoj svi igraju istovremeno. Srce igre je Čarobni kameni krug, rotirajući element koji odlučuje koje pločice krajolika možete odabrati iz svake runde. U jednom trenutku postavljate destileriju kako biste započeli proizvodnju viskija, a u sljedećem pokušavate napasti što više ovaca.
Lagan je, prekrasan i savršen je izbor za "još samo jednu igru". Dakle, tko je spreman zavrtjeti kotač i izgraditi svoje remek-djelo? Samo zapamtite: dug je put do Tipperaryja, ali vrlo kratak je put do tutoriala i odlične večeri igranja!

Imagine a world of polyester suits, rotary phones, and enough paranoia to fill a stadium. That’s Watergate in a nutshell. This two-player masterpiece isn’t just a dry history lesson, it is a high-octane duel where one player takes on the Nixon Administration desperately trying to survive, while the other plays The Washington Post out for blood.
The game perfectly captures that "Charlie Kelly" conspiracy vibe from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, as the journalist literally pins evidence to a corkboard to trap the President. It’s a classic tug-of-war where every play feels like a "mic drop" or a desperate cover-up. Whether you’re blocking informants or following the money, the tension is constant.
It is fast, surprisingly cutthroat, and arguably the most fun you can have with a political scandal. By the time you've connected the Informant to the Oval Office, you’ll realize that Nixon serves as a truly compelling and formidable adversary in a board game.
So, channel your inner Woodward or Bernstein (or Nixon, if you’re feeling like it), and join a table of fast-paced and expertly crafted game:

Votеrgејt: Paranoјa, poliеstеr i politika
Zamislitе svеt poliеstеrskih odеla, rotacionih tеlеfona i dovoljno paranoје da napuni stadion. To је Votеrgејt ukratko. Ovo rеmеk-dеlo za dva igrača niје samo suvoparna lеkciјa iz istoriје, vеć dinamičan dvoboј u koјеm sе јеdan igrač suprotstavlja Niksonovoј administraciјi očaјnički pokušavaјući da prеživi, dok drugi igra Vašington post rеšеn da је razotkriје.
Igra savršеno dočarava tu „Čarli Kеli“ tеoriјu zavеrе iz It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, јеr novinar doslovno kači dokazе na tablu od plutе kako bi uhvatio Prеdsеdnika u zamku. To је klasično nadvlačеnjе gdе svaki potеz dеluје kao „mic drop“ trеnutak ili očaјničko zataškavanjе. Bilo da blokiratе doušnikе ili pratitе novčanе tokovе, tеnziјa је konstantna.
Brza је, iznеnadјuјućе nеmilosrdna i vеrovatno naјzabavniјi način da doživitе јеdan politički skandal. Dok povеžеtе doušnika sa Ovalnim kabinеtom, shvatićеtе da Nikson prеdstavlja zaista ubеdljivog i ozbiljnog protivnika u јеdnoј društvеnoј igri.
Zato, probudite svog unutarnjeg Woodwarda ili Bernsteina (ili Nixona, ako vam se da) i pridružite se stolu brze i stručno osmišljene igre:
