Conceptos básicos de Board Game Arena

Qué é Board Game Arena?

What, you don't know yet? Let's bring you up to speed! Board Game Arena (BGA) is an online board games platform.

With BGA, you can play online, either in real time or turn based, against players from around the whole world. A selection of various board games and card games are available. In order to play, the only thing you need is your browser!

Para unha breve descrición, consulte a páxina 'Introdución BGA'.

Qué significa "xogo en tempo real"?

When playing a real-time game, your opponents are connected to the game platform during the entire game. They can see your moves and react to them immediately - as is the case in the real world.

Qué significa "xogo por turnos"?

When playing a turn-based game, players do not need to be connected all the time. They leave and come back when it's their turn to play. Once all your opponents have completed their moves you are notified that it is your turn (by email or on your next visit to the site). Then you can access this game, take your turn, and the process repeats for the next player.

Qué necesito para xogar?

Your browser... and that's all! Board Game Arena does not require anything else. This way, you can play from any device, anywhere, anytime!

However, we are using the latest technologies available for the web. For this reason, you should play with the most up to date web browsers to enjoy an optimal BGA experience.

Para mellor experiencia de xogo, recomendamos os seguintes navegadores:
  • Google Chrome 10+
  • Mozilla Firefox 4+
Oficialmente soportamos os seguintes navegadores:
  • Google Chrome 4+
  • Mozilla Firefox 3.5+
  • Internet Explorer 11+
  • Microsoft Edge
  • Safari 4+
  • También soportamos o xogo en iPads ou tabletas similares oo teléfonos móbiles.

Xogando

Como podo comezar unha nova partida?

Go on the 'Play now' section, select your prefered game mode (ex: 'Real-time'), find the game you want to play, and then click on the 'Play' button.
  • Se seleccionaches o modo 'Opoñentes automáticos', só tes que agardar por contrincantes.
  • Otherwise, you will be displayed a list of table you can join. Choose a game table, join it, wait for players to join, and once you have the players, click 'Start game'. Have fun!

Qué pasa se ninguén se une á miña mesa?

Para os xogos máis populares, podes atopar xogadores en calquera momento do día. Para outros xogos, se non podes atopar opoñentes neste momento, recomendámosche que voltes en hora punta (arredor das 22:00 CEST)

Consello: comproba o número de xogadores en liña dispoñibles para unha partida antes de crear unha mesa.
Consello: Se non hai ninguén dispoñible para unha partida en tempo real, podes trasnformar a túa mesa nunha baseada en quendas, deste xeito outros xogadores poderán unirse incluso horas/días despois de que ti a crés.

¿Podo unirme a varias mesas en tempo real ao mesmo tempo?

Si, podes unirte ou crear varias mesas en tempo real ao mesmo tempo, usando vestíbulo Manual.

This is even recommended to be in several tables, to maximize your chance to find opponents, instead of waiting at a single table.

When one of your realtime table starts, you are automatically removed from the other tables and you can focus on your game.

For example, if you want to play Carcassonne, Keyflower and 7 Wonders, we suggest you to join or create a table for these 3 games, so all the other players can see you are ready to play these games.

Outro exemplo: se queres xogar a Saboteur, recomendámosche que te unas a todas as mesas abertas.

Unime a unha partida. Cando comenza a partida?

Para xogos en tempo real, cada mesa ten un anfitrión que é o creador da táboa. É responsabilidade do anfitrión da mesa comezar o xogo cando estea satisfeito co número de xogadores que se uniron á mesa. Se es o anfitrión da mesa e non podes iniciar o xogo, a maioría das veces é porque aínda non se uniron suficientes xogadores á mesa.

Para os xogos por quendas, o xogo comeza en canto se alcanza o número máximo de xogadores. O anfitrión da mesa tamén pode decidir iniciar o xogo manualmente en calquera momento despois de que se unira o número mínimo de xogadores necesarios para xogar.

Como podo xogar unha partida en solitario?

There are an increasing number of games available for solo play on BGA. To find these games, you can go to the Games page and filter by "Number of players: Solo."

Para comezares un xogo en solitario co lobby "Manual":
  • Crear unha nova mesa
  • Seleccione "Modo amigable" para a opción "Modo xogo".
  • Reduce o número de xogadores a 1
  • Abre a mesa a outros xogadores (neste caso ningún, pero aínda é un paso necesario)
  • Comeza o xogo.

Para comezar un xogo para xogar en solitario co lobby "Automático":
  • Fai clic na icona da engrenaxe para cambiar as opcións
  • Fai clic en "Mostrar opcións avanzadas"
  • Establece o "Modo Amistoso" en verde e despois o "Modo Normal" en vermello para a opción "Modo de Xogo"
  • Configura "1 xogador" en verde e todas as demais opcións en vermello para a opción "Número de xogador".
  • Fai clic en "Xogar agora".

Qué significa o círculo de cor ao lado do nome dun(ha) xogador(a)?

online_.png : Este(a) xogador(a) está activo(a). Completou unha acción moi recentemente.
inactive_.png : This player is inactive. He or she is connected to the website but has not performed any action recently.
offline_.png : Este(a) xogador(a) está fora de liña.

Qué significa as iconas a carón do nombre dun(ha) xogador(a)?

active_player.gif : Este(a) xogador(a) debe facer unha xogada agora.
active_player_clockalert.gif : This player must make a move now, and has used up all his/her available thinking time. Can someone wake them up? ;)
active_player_nonack.gif : This player must make a move now, but is probably not aware of this fact. If the situation doesn't change, it might mean that this player has a connection issue.
: When the 'normal' avatar of a player is displayed, it means that this player is waiting for their turn to play.

Un xogador non está xogando. Qué podo facer?

First, please remember that other players have the right to think as long as they need to about their next move... Well, as long as there is still some time left on their game clock, that is. After that, you can use the chat to ask this player to confirm that he or she is still thinking about how to play.

If the player seems to be away, we advise you to wait a few minutes: this player may be experiencing some network problems or have left temporarily. If the player is not coming back, and his/her clock has become negative, then you can kick this player out of the game. The effects of kicking a player out are the following:
  • Este(a) xogador(a) recibirá unha penalización por 'abandono' (ver 'Reputación/Karma' para máis detalles).
  • This player will lose the same ELO points as if he/she was the loser (last place) of this game, minus an additional -10 ELO.
  • Whatever happens in the game afterwards, all the other players will be considered tied at the first place for ELO, and will receive a % of the ELO corresponding to the % of progression of the game at the moment the player was kicked out. Ex: if 80% of the game has been played, the remaining players will receive 80% of the ELO they would have won.
  • Todos os turnos vindeiros deste xogadores serán saltados.

With this system, we ensure that even if you are in a losing position, it is NEVER a good choice for you to quit a game in progress. This system is a little bit harsh, but unlike many other services, about 99% of games played on BGA are not abandoned, and we are proud of that :)

Como funciona exactamente o reloxo de xogo?

Before playing each game, depending on the 'Speed' settings, you can see two values: the initial time amount and the additional time per turn.

Cando che toca pensar, o tempo que queda no teu reloxo diminúe.

Con regularidade (normalmente en cada 'quenda'), a túa asignación de tempo aumenta.

If your timer reaches zero (or gets negative), any other player can kick you out from the game: you should be careful NEVER to be in this situation.

Algúns detalles e casos específicos:
  • There is a maximum amount of time for each player. In general, this maximum matches the initial time amount (ie: you can never have more than the initial time).
  • If you get a negative clock at some point during a game, even if you are not expelled, you will get a 'clock' red spot on your reputation.
  • Cando xogas un xogo por primera vez, todos os teus tempos duplícanse.
  • Tournaments are using a completely different system ('fixed time limit'): you get an amount of time at the beginning, and there is no additional time during the game.
  • For turn-based games, 'X turns / day' means '24 / X' hours of additional time per move. For example, '2 turns / day' means '+12 hours per move'.

Como resolvedes os eventos aleatorios (lanzar os dados, barallar as cartas, ...)?

Para dados e calquera acción equivalente a 'escoller un número', estamos a usar a función PHP 'random_int'. This function has a cryptographically secure randomness, which means that it may be even better than real dice :)

For card shuffling, we are using the PHP method 'shuffle', based on the 'Mersenne Twister' algorithm which is used by most online Poker websites.

Please note that there are thousands of games played each day on BGA, so a rare event whose probability is really low may still happen dozens of times per day on BGA.

Finally, for those asking themselves "But is that random number generator truly random?", please check this page from random.org which is a great ressource to understand the complexity of this question.

Qué ocorre si un(ha) xogador(a) fai algo erróneo?

The Board Game Arena platform has been designed to encourage players to maintain good behavior. The reputation system allows you to distinguish between good and bad players. Then, it is up to you to decide whether to start a game with them or not.

If you think a player behaved badly during a game, you can give them a 'red thumb' at the end of the game. Os efectos dun polgar vermello son:
  • Este xogador xa non poderá xogar contigo (excepto se vos atopades nun torneo).
  • Este xogador non poderá enviarche mensaxes privadas nin ver as túas partidas como espectador.

If you think a player committed a serious wrongdoing during a game (for example insulting another player in the chat), please report this player to us, using the 'report this player' link from their profile or by clicking on the 'red thumb' at the end of the game, so that we can take appropriate measures.

Empregar o vestíbulo do "Modo Automático": como funcionan as preferencias da partida?

Ao usar o vestíbulo en `Modo automático ', podes especificar as túas preferencias nunha variedade de opcións para unha partida facendo clic na roda dentada.
  • `Estou cómodo xogando con ...` significa que estás disposto a xogar con esta opción.
  • `I prefer not to play with...` means that we won't make you join a game with this option value... Except if this is the only available possibility after searching an alternative during a few minutes.
  • `I'm reluctant to play with...` means that we won't make you join a game with this option value... Except if this is the only available possibility after searching an alternative during a long time.
  • `I never want to play with...` means that we won't make you join a game with this option value at all.

Canto tempo permanece aberta unha mesa se ninguén está a xogar?

Cando ninguén se moveu nunha mesa de xogo durante un tempo, péchase automaticamente para liberar recursos do servidor:
  • A real-time table is closed automatically if more than 4 hours have elapsed since its creation and if all players at this table are now offline.
  • Unha mesa por quendas péchase automaticamente se non se realizou ningún movemento en 40 días.

Que son os xogos alfa e beta e por que se nos avisa sobre eles?

Alpha and beta games on Board Game Arena are works in progress. Alpha games are in the very early stages of development, so they might be unfinished, and you're asked not to share anything about them. It's also expected that you'll provide feedback to help improve the game. Beta games are a bit more polished but can still have bugs or issues. The warnings are there to remind you about potential problems (like bugs or instability) and to encourage you to report anything you encounter to help the developers refine the game.

A túa conta, reputación e clasificación

Como funciona a miña puntuación de reputación (Karma)?

The Karma score (☯) is a quick way to check if a player has a good reputation on BGA (does not quit games, is friendly and fair play, ...).

Depending on your Karma score, you may also be allowed or disallowed to use some features on BGA or to join a given table.

A túa puntuación inicial de Karma é 75 ☯ (nun máximo de 100☯). Logo:
  • Cada vez que rematas unha partida, se o teu reloxo nunca estivo en negativo durante esta partida, obtés +1☯.
  • If you quit, or get kicked out of a game in progress, you lose 10☯ or even 20☯ if you already quit another game recently.
  • Se te perdes unha partida planexada de torneo: -4☯.

Cal é o código de conducta?

Na Board Game Arena, non deberías:
  • Quedar sen tempo no reloxo da partida.
  • Abandoar intencionadamente unha partida en marcha.
  • Take an unnecessary and unreasonable amount of time at the end of game in an obvious losing situation.
  • Engage in Kingmaking: enabling another player to win on purpose while there is a better move to make for yourself.
  • Give some piece of information about the current game situation that disturbs the normal game flow.
  • Communicate with another player about the game privately (for example with an instant messenging app).
  • Facer uso de provocación / triunfalismo / derrotismo ... calquera cousa que non sexa xogo limpo.
  • Use an avatar that may be shocking or offensive to other players (no advertisement, no politics, ...)
Ir en contra destas regras afectará á túa reputación.

Por que recibín un aviso de enderezo IP ao unirme a unha mesa?

When you join a table, you may receive a message informing you that a player is playing from the same IP address as another player. This means they could potentially be sharing information. We've decided to display this warning to let you know. You are free to decide whether or not you wish to participate in this game. For more details please check out our 'Multi account policy'.

Qué está absolutamente proibido?

Na Board Game Arena, está absolutamente proibido:
  • Insultar de calquer xeito a outros xogadores.
  • Crear varias contas e xogar contra un mesmo para incrementar o ranking personal.
  • Trolling, admin-bashing, moderador-bashing, críticas baleiras ou difamación.
Going against these rules can lead to the removal of your account and/or a ban from the website.

Qué pautas debo seguir ao comunicarme?

The general rule you should follow is to talk to people (in the forum, in the chat, ...) as if they were friends that you invited to play at your home: then you'll naturally give them your attention and be kind to them so that everyone feels welcome and at ease. E sempre é agradable xogar con amigos!

You should also be aware that in an international communication context, not everyone has the same mastery of the language being used, and that cultural differences can sometimes lead to misundernstandings. When in doubt, please consider the most kind and well intentioned meaning as it will be the good one most of the time!

And finally, do not use Board Game Arena communication resources to advertise other gaming websites. If you want to talk about your experience elsewhere, please just say something like 'on another gaming website'.

Torneos e karma: como funciona isto?

Hai unha reputación mínima a alcanzar para xogar cada torneo (o predeterminado é 65☯).

If your reputation decrease below the minimum requirement of a tournament for which you registered, you may not be able to participate.

If your reputation decrease below the minimum requirement of a tournament in progress, you may be expelled from the tournament (but not from your games in progress).

Como se calcula a miña califiación ELO?

The players ELO score on BGA is based on the ELO formula, which is one of the most popular ways to evaluate a player level. Please check Wikipedia if you are interested in the theory.

Na BGA, ti obtiés un ránking ELO para cada xogo diferente. Cando non xogache nunca a un xogo, o teu ELO é cero.

When you finish a game, the number of points you gain/lose depends on the level of your opponents, and more precisely on the ELO difference between you and your opponents.

The most simple situation is a 2 players game. You will gain a number of ELO point equal to K x (W - p(D)) where:
  • W é o resultado dunha partida: 1 para unha vitoria, 0 para unha derrota, 0,5 en caso de empate.
  • D é a diferencia de ELO entre ti e o teu opoñente.
  • p(D) is the probability of victory considering the previous difference (see Wikipedia for details).
  • K, o 'factor de elasticidade', ten un valor que depende do número de partidas que xogaras: 60 para as túas primeras 10 partidas, 40 entre as túas 11ª e 20ª partidas, 20 a partires desa partida.

Algúns detalles e casos específicos adicionais:
  • Na túa primeira partida, sempre gañas canda menos 1 ELO, incluso se perdes a partida.
  • Until you reach 100 ELO (beginner), you can never lose ELO points. And after that you can never go back under 100 ELO.
  • When you play with more than 1 opponent, we consider that you win against each opponent who scores lower than you during this game, and lose against each opponent who scores better than you. For example, if you are #2 in a 4 players game, you gain ELO points as if you won against the 3rd and 4th players, and lost against the 1st. In this case, the K factor is adjusted depending of the total players number to make sure ELO variation are not too important (or too little).
  • When you win consecutively against the same opponent on a game, your ELO gains will gradually reduce. This encourages you to compete against as many players as possible.
  • When your rank is "Strong" or higher, and you don't play for an extended period, your ELO score will decrease over time.

ELO ranking allows to classify players in 7 distinct skills levels: Beginner (0 point), Apprentice (1-99 points), Average (100-199), Good (200-299), Strong (300-499), Expert (500-699), Master (700+).

Por que están desactivados os rankings e modos competitivos nalgúns xogos?

Algúns xogos non son axeitados para competir en liña na Board Game Arena.Isto pode ocorrer por varias razóns:
  • the game may be a cooperative one, where your rank serves as a rough indication of your level but should not be viewed as a competitive rank;
  • a partida pode terse resolto;
  • there may be easily accessible game engines or artificial intelligence allowing players to compete at the level of the engine instead of their own.
In any of those cases, or if a specific reason does not allow for a fair competitive basis for a game, rankings and competitive modes will be disabled (with matching trophies).

Por que non recibín un trofeo de primeiro nivel por este xogo?

To be awarded the top rank trophies, you need to have reached at least 300 ELO (otherwise, the first people playing the game would just get the trophies immediately). Also, there needs to be enough active players (at least 1000/300 in the last two months for the top20/top10), otherwise the achievement would not be significant.

Como podo borrar a miña conta?

Acouga... Por qué quererías facer iso?
Botarémoste de menos!
De todos xeitos, se estas convencido, atoparás o que necesitas en 'Preferencias -> Conta -> Borrar a miña conta da BGA'. Deica logo, moinante!

Por que desapareceron algúns dos meus amigos?

Un cambio recente no xeito no que se xestionan os amigos en Board Game Arena fixo que algúns antigos amigos tivesen que ser eliminados. Concretamente, as amizades non mutuas xa non están permitidas.

A partir de agora, para facer un novo amigo, primeiro debes enviarlle unha solicitude de amizade a un usuario. Se ese usuario acepta a túa solicitude de amizade, converterédesvos en amigos. Isto permite ver cando o outro usurio está en liña, así como ver información relevante de cada un no seu feed.

Elimináronse todas as amizades non mutuas que existían antes deste cambio e convertéronse en "solicitudes de amizade caducadas".

Podes atopar estas solicitudes de amizade caducadas facendo clic en "Ver máis..." na pestana de amigos. Se aínda queres ser amigo de calquera destes xogadores, podes volver enviarlle solicitudes de amizade!

Premium

Como funcionan os xogos Premium?

Só os membros Premium poden crear novas mesas para xogos Premium.
Unha vez creada a mesa, calquera pode unirse (incluso os membros non Premium).

This way, you only have to buy 1 Premium membership to play Premium games with your friends (or anyone else).

Por qué algúns xogos son Premium e outros non?

Cada editor de xogos decide se os seus xogos en BGA deben ser Premium ou non.

Ten en conta que a gran maioría dos xogos en BGA son gratuítos para todos :)

Quero xogar con alguén do mesmo sitio: debo mercar 2 membresía Premium?

Non: só precisas unha membresía Premium.
If a Premium member is playing at a table, all restrictions based on location are removed for all other participants at this table.

Por qué xogar desde a mesma ubicación está dispoñible só con 1 membro Premium?

Playing on BGA from the same location is not something common since if you are at the same place you can play with the real physical board game. It makes sense to make it a Premium feature, so that using BGA stays a way to discover and enjoy board games with the whole world and does not become just a way to avoid buying the real physical game.

With this restriction, we also mean to limit the possibilities for cheaters to play against themselves to boost their rankings.

Que é o modo Hotseat e como funciona?

Using Hotseat mode (Premium feature), you can play with your friends from the same computer or other device.

Create a simple game table on BGA, click on 'Invite a friend' button, and select 'Hotseat' for each of your opponents.

Como se factura unha membresía Premium?

A membresía Premium é unha suscrición: factúrase periódicamente.

The monthly membership is billed every month: if you subscribe on March 13th, you will be billed on April 13th, May 13th, and so on.

A afiliación anual factúrase unha vez cada ano. Como estás comprometido por un ano, hai un desconto importante nesta afiliación.

If you prefer to pay manually for each membership period, we advise you to use the Paypal payment option as we do not renew automatically memberships payed using Paypal.

Como cancelo a miña membresía? ¿Podo cancelar a miña membresía en calquera momento?

Podes cancelar a túa subscrición Premium en calquera momento na pestana "Conta" das túas "Preferencias".

Whenever you cancel your membership, you always remain Premium for the period you have already paid for.

Cómo podo actualizar a miña información de pago? Cómo podo actualizar o meu número de tarxeta de crédito?

O único xeito de facer isto é volvendo subscribirse usando a súa nova información de pago:

  • Ir á páxina Premium: https://boardgamearena.com/premium
  • Cancelar a subscrición actual (non se perderá o tempo restante de membresía)
  • Elixe a subscrición mensual ou anual e introduce a túa nova información de pago.

Note: the payment on the new Credit Card will not occur before the end of your current active membership period.

Que pasa se xa son Premium e obteño unha membresía gratuíta?

If you get one free Premium month by helping BGA, your current membership period is extended by one month.

For example, if you should have been billed on April 13th, you will be billed one month later instead.

Please note that if you get your free month just before the renewal of your membership, it may be impossible to cancel the next billing so we may have to delay the subsequent bill instead.

Xogos de mesa dispoñibles

Cales son os xogos disponibels?

Board Game Arena offers a wide selection of board and card games, with a strong focus on modern ('European style') board games.

Para ver a lista completa, consulta a nosa páxina de 'Xogos'.

Como escolledes os xogos que poñedes dispoñibles en liña?

Para publicar un xogo na BGA necesitamos 2 cousas:
  • The authorization of the digital rights owner for the game (most of the time, the original publisher).
  • A software developer volunteering the time and skills needed to build an online version of the game.

So if you are asking yourself why one of your favourite games is not yet available on BGA, it could be for various reasons:
  • We never asked an authorization for this game in the first place (of course if the game is popular, there is a good chance that we asked).
  • The publisher didn't reply or refused to grant his authorization, temporarily or definitively.
  • The publisher accepted, but we haven't found a volunteer developer yet for this game, or the development is currently ongoing.
  • A adaptación do xogo está lista, pero estamos esperando un momento específico ou un evento para publicalo.

Se só queres suxerir un xogo novo para a BGA: o mellor xeito de axudarnos a ter este xogo en BGA é non escribirnos, senón escribir ao editor deste xogo e dicirlle que a BGA mola, para que nos poidan dar unha autorización para ter este xogo aquí :)

isto axuda realmente, así que faino! Podes enviarlles a seguinte ligazón que explica todo o que necesitan saber:
https://boardgamearena.com/gamepublishers

Que hai acerca das expasións do xogo?

Game expansions follow the same selection and development process than games. There can be various reasons why a game publisher doesn't want the expansion online, and sometimes we don't find a developer who has the time to develop it.

Son dunha editorial: Por qué e cómo podería levar o noso xogo a Board Game Arena?

The main goal of Board Game Arena is to make it easy for players to discover new games, learn to play them and love them. We think that there are only two kinds of players on Board Game Arena: those who already bought the games they are playing online, and those who plan to buy them soon!

For a more detailed presentation or to contact us about licensing, please check out our 'Game publishers' page.

A Arena (modo competitivo)

Que é o modo de xogo Arena?

O modo Arena é o principal modo competitivo para todos os xogos no Board Game Arena.

Playing Arena Mode, you meet opponents in a competitive spirit, and try to become the new world champion for each game!

Como funciona?

O modo Arena está baseado en tempadas.

Unha tempada dura 3 meses, polo que hai 4 temporadas Arena cada ano.

Ao final dunha tempada, os mellores xogadores de cada xogo serán os novos campións do mundo de BGA.

E se non me importa o xogo competitivo?

Arena Mode is 100% optional. You can play on BGA using 'Simple mode' and never care about it.

Cales son as regras do modo Arena?

Nun principio: algunhas regras do modo Arena poden cambiar dunha tempada a outra.

To access Arena Mode for a game, you first need to reach 100 ELO points. It gives you access to the lower Arena league (Bronze league). You start with 1 Arena point ('Bronze - 1').

When playing on Arena mode, you play each game with its Arena format. You cannot choose your opponents: a matchmaking algorithm is choosing your opponents for you.

When you win a game in Arena mode, you gain Arena points. You gain 3 Arena points when beating an opponent from the same league, 2 points when beating an opponent from league N-1, 1 point for beating an opponent from league N-2, and so on (and the same for higher leagues).

Cando perdes unha partida, perdes puntos de Arena. Non obstante, non podes ter menos de 0 puntos.

(Note: If you play a 3+ game, the number of Arena points you get is divided by the number of opponents. So beating 5 opponents from the same league brings you 3 x 5 / 5 = 3 points).

When you reach 10 points, you are promoted to the upper league, with 1 point (ex: 'Silver - 1'). You get a corresponding trophy, and you can no longer be relegated for this season.

O teu obxectivo é, por suposto, acadar a liga máis alta antes de que remate a tempada :)

Cantas ligas hai?

It depends on the popularity of the game: the most popular a game is, the more leagues there are (and the most difficult it is to reach the top).

Que é a 'liga Elite'?

The most active players for a given game (especially the best ones) may reach the most prestigious league: the Elite league.

In Elite league, the rules are different: each player has an Elite Arena Score (EAS), which works exactly like a standard 'ELO rank'. Based on this EAS, you get your world rank for this game (ex: 45th) and you can try to become the world champion

This EAS is hidden as long as you are playing in inferior leagues, and is revealed when you enter the Elite league. Basically, if you beat very good players during this season, your EAS will be high, and if you beat weak players your EAS will be low.

Que pasa ao final da tempada?

For each game, the best players will receive the BGA world champion trophies for the season depending on their final rankings.

Cando comeza unha nova tempada, relégase a todo o mundo a unha liga inferior (e restablécese a EAS).

Que é o "Formato Arena"?

The Arena format is a set of game settings that apply to all tables played in Arena mode. This keeps all Arena games for a particular game consistent, ensuring a fair and competitive environment.

Every season, the "Game Gurus" community of each game discusses and votes on the Arena format. These users can propose new formats, and the one with the most votes at the end of the season becomes the official Arena format for the next season.

In some cases, Admins may set a special rotating format that makes game option change each season based on specific rules. This is especially useful for games with complex settings that can create very different play experiences (e.g., battle scenarios, map variants).

Que pasa cos xogos por quendas?

O modo Arena é para xogos en tempo real e baseado en quendas.

The only constraint for turn based games is that a turn based game must start and end during a given Arena season to be taken into account for this Arena season.

If your turn based game is not finished at the end of the Season, the player who consume the most thinking time during the game will lose the game.

For a given game, you must also always play on the table where you are the most waited (ie: where it's your turn for the longest time).

Que lle pasou ás partidas de Arena por quendas ao fin da Tempada?

5 days before the end of the season, it is not possible to start new Arena turn-based games anymore.

If your turn based game is not finished at the end of the Season, the player who consume the most thinking time during the game will lose the game and lose Arena points.

Os outros xogadores non gañarán nin perderán ningún punto de arena nesta partida.

A partida pode continuar logo, pero non haberá maiores consecuencias para as clasificacións da Area.

Que é un Gurú do Xogo?

For each game on BGA, the most prolific players in the last 30 days are eligible to become the Game Gurus.
Os Gurus son seleccionados diariamente e manterán o seu estado polo menos un mes.

Game Gurus have special powers, like being able to discuss and vote for the next seasons Arena format.
Tamén son os que avalían os titoriais Alpha.

No futuro confiaranse aos Gurús dos Xogos máis poderes especiais.

Como converterse nun Gurú do Xogo?

Your karma must be at least 90, and you must have been registered on Board Game Arena for at least one year.
The players who played the most (non-training) games in the last 30 days will automatically become gurus. (limited to 100 players)
Once a player is a guru for a specific game, they will keep their status for at least 1 month (unless their karma drops).

Poden aplicarse outras condicións.

Problemas técnicos

Qué podo facer se teño problemas có sitio web?

A meirande parte dos problemas co sitio web deberan resolverse simplemente refrescando a páxina (ou 'F5').

If you experience a persistent issue, the first thing to do is to use our troubleshooting tool to check if everything is fine with your configuration.

If you are not correctly logged in for a game (spectator instead of player), please come back to the main site and log out then log in again to refresh your authentication cookies.

Then, you can browse our bug tracker: check to see if someone has already reported this issue and upvote it, or create a new report if that's not the case. Please take the time needed to describe the problem in a clear and precise manner so that we can quickly reproduce and fix it.

Por qué non se corrixiu ainda este erro?

Corriximos unha gran cantidade de erros, permanentemente. Pero por descontado temos que establecer prioridades:
  • We give the highest priority to recent features and recent games, because the most important bugs are reported fast.
  • We give the highest priority to the bugs that gathered the highest number of upvotes (green thumbs) in our bug tracking tool.
  • We usually fix bugs in batches for better efficiency. So if we decide to fix an important bug on a game, there is a good chance that we will fix some other minor bugs at the same time.

BGA is known for the quality of its adaptations, and if you look at the bug tracker, you will see that - considering the number of games and the size of the community - there are not so many really important bugs open with a lot of upvotes.

Please also remember that a lot of BGA adaptations are realized and maintained by volunteers on their free time. Finding and fixing bugs is neither easy nor really fun, so the best way you can help is by being nice and giving precise information in bug reports.

It can also happen that the original developer stops maintaining the game after a while for some personal reason. In that case, remaining bugs can stay open a long time, until another developer interested in the game volunteers to take over, or for more popular games, until the number of votes attracts the attention of an admin on this bug's relevance to the community.

Estou xogando nun dispositivo móbil e teño algunhas dificultades: qué poido facer?

BGA was designed with desktop and laptop computers in mind. Then we updated the layout to accomodate mobile users, but while some BGA adaptations run perfectly on mobile, some others are not designed well for small screens or touch screens. This can come from the complexity of the game itself (big board, lots of elements) or from the choices made by the developer.

Thus, when you play from a mobile device, we advise you to choose games that won't be too difficult to play on a small screen, and to pay extra attention to each of your moves to be sure to trigger the correct action: zooming a lot really helps!

Por qué teño unha conexión lenta ou problemas de rendemento con BGA?

We are constantly monitoring our servers responsiveness. Sometimes incidents occur, but most of the time BGA is responsive. Usually, less than 2% of game moves takes more than 200 milliseconds to process, and less than 0.2% takes more than 1 second.

The main BGA servers are located in Europe (France), but we rent relay servers all across the world (in 30+ locations) so that big files (essentially images) are loaded quickly even if you are far from us.

Please be aware that very often, performances problems can come from your internet connection or from your computer system. We advise you to try to connect with a different browser / computer / internet connection to troubleshoot the issues.

As a rule of thumb, if you are finding out that BGA is not responsive enough for you on a given day, you shouldn't start or join a game since there is a risk for you to get clock penalties.

Pautas de tradución

Qué pode ser traducido?

The collaborative translation system is meant to make it possible to translate Board Game Arena into any language, in order to enable more people to discover and play board games.

For example, if you want to play 'Dragonheart' with your 10-year-old nephew and he doesn't speak English yet, no problem! Just help us translate Board Game Arena into your language!

Every string of text for the main site and for the games interfaces are 'internationalized' and can be translated by the player community. News announcements displayed on the BGA 'Home' and 'News' pages are computer translated first, then the translation can be improved by the community.

Quén debería traducir?

This is important: only translate text into a given language if you are a native speaker of that language. When translating a game, the translator should know the game thoroughly and if possible have a box and rulebook of the game in the destination language to check for consistency. Translators should take into account the level of language and the formal/informal pronominal rules usual for the gaming audience of their country.

The source/reference language for translation is English, since the site and games development is made in English.

English is not necessarily the mother tongue of all developers, so fluent (and preferably native) English speakers can submit requests for change to be validated by developers or adminstrators. It is necessary to be very careful when modifying the English texts as this affects the translations in all languages!

Cal debe ser o meu enfoque ao traducir?

When translating, please always stay as close as possible to the original English text in meaning and style. Translating a software interface is not a literary exercise: please do not try to transform Board Game Arena into a book. Practicality, clarity and homogeneity are the most important.

In particular, you should respect the final punctuation (or lack thereof), the specific words capitalization choices and the use of digits instead of words.

Correxín algunhas traducións, por qué non aparecen cambiadas no sitio?

Translation files are updated nightly, so you just have to wait until tomorrow for your changes to appear on the site.

Durante canto tempo podo modificar as traducións?

The first translations may not be perfect. So they can be modified until they are 'validated'. Validation occurs when a translation has not been modified for 30 days straight. It is then considered stable and valid (golden icon) and can only be changed by 'seasoned' players.

Computer translated text is never validated until it has been proofread by a member of the community and either "confirmed" or "modified". Afterwards it is considered to have a "human" level of trustability like other translations, and will follow the same rules for validation.

Hai algunha recompensa por traducir?

Si! Cada tradución validada signifcaralle ao seu tradutor un punto de agasallo. To learn more about gift points, please check our 'Contribute to BGA' page.

Titoriais de xogos

Hai titoriais para aprender as regras do xogo?

Si! Algúns xogos teñen titoriais.

Ver a listaxe de xogos con titorial

Como podo crear un titorial para un xogo?

Calquera pode propoñer un novo titorial para un xogo.

Esta páxina explica como construír un titorial

Cal é o estado Alpha/Beta dos titoriais?

Cando propós un novo titorial para un xogo, ten o estado ALPHA.
Todos os que teñan a ligazón do titorial poden revisala, dar comentarios e valoralo.

O desenvolvedor do xogo (ou un administrador da BGA) pode seleccionar o teu titorial e movelo a BETA
A tutorial in BETA is proposed to English speaking players on the Game Page, so it can be tested on real conditions.

Se o titorial ten boas estatísticas, o desenvolvedor do xogo (ou un administrador da BGA) pode facelo OFICIAL.
O titorial OFICIAL amósase na páxina do xogo e está dispoñible para todos os xogadores.
Só hai un titorial OFICIAL para un xogo determinado.
O titorial OFICIAL tamén está dispoñible para tradución.

Como se avalían os titoriais?

Tutorials are evaluated by game developers and BGA admins based on statistics (ex: ratings, ...).

They may compare several tutorials statistics by making them available at the same time: if several BETA tutorials (with/without an OFFICIAL one) are available, players are redirected randomly to one of them.

Como podo traducir un titorial?

Os titoriais están dispoñibles para a tradución ~ 24 horas despois de alcanzar o estado OFICIAL.

Despois, pódense traducir como calquera outra parte do xogo.

Como se conceden os puntos de agasallo para os creadores de titoriais?

Cando o teu titorial se converte en OFICIAL obtés 100 puntos de agasallo.
Afterwards, each month, you get 100 additional gift points as long as your tutorial remains the OFFICIAL one.
Hai un máximo de 600 puntos coma recompensa por cada xogo.

Onde podo ver as estatísticas do meu titorial?

What can I do if the game adaptation does not allow me to create the right tutorial steps?

Because of bugs or specific choices made by a game adaptation developer, it may be difficult or impossible to:
  • Reproducir unha partida sen erros
  • Pídelle ao visor do titorial que xogue un movemento en lugar de usar o botón "Continuar".
  • Establece un comentario do titorial no lugar exacto que desexas.

In that case, it should be reported as a bug for the game in our bug reporting tool so that the developer can fix it. When reporting the bug, please indicate to the developer to check the tutorials checklist page where the most frequent errors and problematic cases are described.

After the issue has been fixed, you should be able to create a tutorial without problem, by using the replay of a game played after the new game version has been deployed.

A xente detrás de Board Game Arena

Quén sodes?

This website has been created on their free time by two IT professionals passionate about board games: Grégory Isabelli and Emmanuel Colin.

BGA is a community website that exists in its current state thanks to the wonderful contributions of passionate players throughout the world.

Para ver a lista completa dos colaboradores, consulta a nosa páxina de 'Equipo'.

In 2021, BGA joined the Asmodee Group (read full announcement).

Cómo se gañan a vida?

After more than 7 years building and managing BGA on their free time, both founders have been working on the website with a full-time salaried position since early 2018. This was really required by the growing audience playing on this website, and has finally been made possible by the continued support of our Premium members through the years (thank you again!).

But actually, there is so much work to do to run BGA that two people working full-time is clearly not enough! This is why we intend to preserve and expand our "community based" approach to give to every interested player the possibility to contribute in order to keep this service running as good and smooth as possible.
