DEPTH UPDATE IS NOW LIVE!Hell B.G.S members, welcome back to Board Game Society, now with more depth!Lets get right into it shall we? After a development filled month of non-stop development, we've been able to cram together almost 3 months of planned content, into one larger update.

- Depth is coming - 4 September 2026
Hi there B.G.S members! One thing has become pretty obvious since launch: in trying to keep Board Game Society casual and easy to pick up, we probably pushed the "basic is best for everyone" thought a bit too hardWith this, several systems we already planned to expand over time are now being brought forward in the timeline and given a lot more attention and priority:• Character Abilities• More Ability Cards• More Global Events• Unique mechanics and quirks for each board• Pass & PlayA lot of the design work behind this is already well underway, and we're now starting to bring the pieces together into something with more variety, more strategy and a lot more room for interesting decisions, as quickly as possible. We will keep you posted on the progress as much as we can during the coming weeks, so keep an eye out.We waint to point out that the goal isn't to turn Board Game Society into a…

Hello fellow friday freaksThis week our primary focus has been to make the game run smoother.

We still have some ways to go, but now it should hopefully run a lot smoother than before!We also got some feedback from some players that the boss encounter could get stuck, so you'd be left in a very awkwards staring contest, so thats fixed now too.
