"即時遊戲" 指的是什麼?

你能夠找到很多網站，提供你玩桌上遊戲，大部分都是以「回合制」的方式進行：每一步後，你必須等待對手連到網站後，接着完成他們的回合。大多數的時間，你需要在每一回合之間等待很長的時間，遊戲也跟着需要一大段時間完成。

在 Board Game Arena 上，你的對手在整個遊戲中都是與遊戲平台處於連線的狀態，他們立刻就能看到你的移動並將訊息回傳給他們，有如在真實世界般對局。

遊戲前，我需要準備什麼?

「一個瀏覽器 ... 就這樣！」

Board Game Arena 不需要在你的電腦上作其他的設定或安裝。因此，你可以隨時隨地從任一台電腦中進行遊戲!

為了能讓這個構想實現，我們在這個平台上使用了相當新的設計。這也是為什麼你需要使用最新的瀏覽器來確保能在 BGA 上獲得最佳的體驗 (請詳細閱讀 browser policy)。

在 BGA 上玩，需要花錢嗎?

這個網站的法律地位是怎麼樣的?

目前所有在這個網站運行的遊戲皆已獲得授權或者有版權持有人的許可。請注意，在 BGA 運行的遊戲可以因應版權持有人的需要而移除（例如：假設他們發佈了遊戲的改動）。

Board Game Arena 感謝所有遊戲發行商與遊戲設計者允許他們的遊戲在這裏，這個網站因此才可能存在。

我是遊戲發行商：為什麼我會想要遊戲在 Board Game Arena 上?

Board Game Arena 的主要目標是為了讓人們更容易的發現並喜愛新遊戲。We think that there is only two kinds of players on Board Game Arena: those who already bought the games they are playing online, and those who dream to buy them soon!

As the activity of this website contributes to increasing a game's popularity and thus generates game boxes sales in the "real world", we think it is beneficial to the boardgame community: people from all over the world can play online, we can have fun developing this game platform to the best of our ability, and game publishers get money from the box sales and build a special relationship with their players community.

關於玩家與戲局

我發起了一桌新遊戲但沒有人加入?

Although Board Game Arena has been enjoying a growing popularity, it is still a young website. For the most popular games, you can find players at any time of the day. For other games, we advise you to come back at peak hour (around 22:00 CEST) if you can't find opponents at the moment.

Tip: check the number of online/available players for a game before launching the table.

我參加了一場遊戲。遊戲什麼時候會開始?

Each table has an administrator, which is the table creator. It is the responsibility of the table administrator to start the game when he is satisfied with the number of players having joined the table.

If you are the table administrator and can't launch the table, most of the time it's because there is not yet enough players around the table for playing this game.

玩家名字後方的小圓點顏色是什麼意思?

•  : this player is active. He completed an action very recently.
•  : this player is inactive. He is connected to the website but did not perform any action recently.
•  : this player is offline.

"% 勝率" 的統計意味着什麼?

% hits = number of victory points / number of games played

Where number of victory points is the following:

• When you win a 2 players game: 1 point.
• When you win a 3 players game: 1.5 points.
• When you win a 4 players game: 2 points.
• etc.

This way, "50%" means that you win 50% of 2 players game, or 33% of 3 players game, etc.

During the game

What is the meaning of the icons next to players names?

•  : this player must make a move now.
•  : this player must make a move now, and he has spent his reflexion time. Can someone wake him up? ;)
•  : this player must make a move now, but is probably not aware of the fact. If the situation does not evolve, it might be that this player has some connection issue.
•  : this player is a "zombie" (he left the game or has been fired from the game). The game goes on without this player.

When the "normal" avatar of a player is displayed, it means that this player is waiting for his turn to play.

A player has to make a move but he/she doesn't. What can I do?

• First, please remember that this player has the right to think as long as he needs to about is next move... well as long as he still has some time left on the game clock, that is.
• Then you can ask this player to confirm that he is still thinking about how to play.
• If this player seems to be away, we advise you to wait a few minutes: this player may be experiencing some network problems or have left his computer temporarily.
• If the player is not coming back, you can expel him from the game as soon as he is running out of time on the game clock for the current move (red bar) or if he goes over his alloted time to think by more than 3/4/5 minutes (depending on game speed). See Clock section for details. Important: in this case, no ELO points will be won by anybody for this game.

What is the current progression of the game I'm playing?

A percentage of progression is displayed on the top of the web page. There is also a progress bar at the bottom of the web page shows you the current progression of the game.

What is forbidden on Board Game Arena?

• Leaving a game in progress on purpose.
• Thinking an unnecessary and unreasonable amount of time at the end of game in an obvious losing situation.
• Kingmaking: enabling another player to win on purpose while there is a better move to make for yourself.
• Running out of time on the game clock.
• Giving some piece of information about the current game situation that corrupts the normal game flow.
• Communicating with another player about the game privately (ex: with MSN).
• Provocation / triumphalism / defeatism ... anything which is not fair play.
