The main goal of Board Game Arena is to promote board games, and we are always happy to help game publishers in any way when we have the possibility. One of the greatest possibility offered by digital boardgaming is the opportunity to test a new variant of a board game. Some time ago, game publisher Cocktail Games, game designer Antoine Bauza and BGA agreed to experiment a variant of Hanabi. This variant is very simple: _ With 2 players, each player has 6 cards in hand instead of 5. _ With 5 players, each player has 3 cards in hand instead of 4. Technical explanations about "why" this variant available here. To play with this variant, you must select "Unofficial variant => yes" on Hanabi game options. This variant will be available on BGA until June 9th. After that, we are going to gather your thoughts about it. A cool thing is that depending on the result of this test (but not only), the game designer and the publisher may decide to make it an official variant 🙂 Thanks for your help making great board games even better!
花火變體
Board Game Arena 的主要目標是 推廣桌遊, 我們也很開心有能夠幫助上桌遊發行者的機會。
數位桌遊可以提供一個最棒的方式去測試一款遊戲的新變體。
不久之前，遊戲發行者 Cocktail Games, 遊戲設計者 Antoine Bauza 以及 BGA 同意實驗一個花火的變體。
這個變體十分簡單：
● 二人遊玩時，每人各持有六張牌，而非原本的五張牌。
● 五人遊玩時，每人各持有三張牌，而非原本的四張牌。
關於這項變體的可行性技術解釋在此。
若要使用此變體，您必須在花火選項上選擇非官方變體。
這個變體將可以使用到6月9日。
之後，我們將收集您的意見。
很酷的是，根據這次測試的結果（不過並非只憑這次測試的結果），遊戲設計師可能會決定讓它成為一個官方變體
感謝您的協助，讓好的桌遊變得更好。
