In less than a month, we have released 2 very famous and emblematic board games: Solo and Terra Mystica.
Solo (taken together with its twins: "Uno", "Crazy Eights", ... ) is one the most popular family card games, and maybe the most popular. It is the kind of game that "everybody knows how to play" / "everyone played at least once". It is a simple game, with a lot of luck.
Terra Mystica is one of the most popular "core eurogame", and maybe the most popular. It is the kind of game that is a real challenge to handle, the type of game experienced board gamers love. It is a deeply strategic game, figuratively speaking we could say it is a kind of "Chess with steroids".
So, why is it that we choose to publish on BGA games like these two, that have nothing in common?
Well, they do have 1 big thing in common. We do have fun playing them!
We think the release of these 2 latest games is a nice opportunity to express once more what motivates us: we love games. All kind of games. We don't want to focus only on "best sellers" because we'd like to give a chance to every single game we enjoy. We don't want to be a website only for "family games", or only for "core games", because we have fun with a lot of different kind of games and we'd like to share this love with you.
A lot of you are regularly surprised by our game choices. Some of you post comments on each news: "thanks, but now please adapt game X". Well, the thing is also that we like to surprise you and we hope to continue to surprise you in the next months with new games you hadn't heard of before, new games you didn't have a chance to try yet, and games you didn't expect to see here on BGA.
See you soon for a new game!

從梭羅到神秘大地: 我們如何選擇遊戲?
在不到一個月的時間裡,我們發佈了2款非常知名、具有象徵性的桌遊:梭羅和神秘大地。
梭羅(與它的雙胞胎:「Uno」、「瘋狂八」……
)是最受歡迎的家庭卡牌遊戲之一,甚至是最受歡迎的。
這是一款「每個人都知道怎麼玩」/「每個人都玩了至少一次」的遊戲。
也是一個單純、很吃運氣的遊戲。
神秘大地是最受歡迎的「核心 歐式遊戲」之一,也或許是最受歡迎的。
它是那種具有挑戰、複雜的遊戲, 遊戲經驗豐富的桌遊玩家愛的類型。
這是一款非常有策略性的遊戲,我們可以將它比喻為「國際象棋」的一種。
那麼,為什麼我們選擇在 BGA 發佈這兩種沒什麼共同點的遊戲呢?
嗯,他們確實有1個大共同點。
就是玩了之後回味無窮!
我們認為,發布這2款最新的遊戲是一個很好的機會,再次表達什麼激勵我們:我們喜歡遊戲。
所有類型的遊戲。
我們不想只關注「暢銷遊戲」,因為我們希望給每個我們喜歡的遊戲提供機會。
我們不想成為一個只為「家庭遊戲」,或只為「核心遊戲」的網站,因為我們從許多不同類型的遊戲中得到樂趣,而我們想分享這份愛給你。
很多人經常對我們選擇的遊戲感到驚訝。
你們之中的一些人在每個新聞上評論:「謝謝,但現在請先開發 某某 遊戲」。
嗯,問題是我們喜歡給你一個驚喜,我們希望在接下來的幾個月裡能讓你從沒聽過、尚未有機會嘗試以及沒預期在BGA出現的新遊戲中得到驚喜。
我們很快在新遊戲裡再見!
