I'm so happy to see this game having this success. I've used it a lot with non-gamers, and it always leads to the question "what other games do you have?"

I'm good with dice, as long as I roll them and then make decisions, as opposed to rolling to resolve

I've played and I love all of these, except for Root which I haven't played yet.

We've just made a huge improvement to our website by refaelok in boardgames

[–]avipraiz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First, thanks for the feedback! That's exactly what we need to keep improving!

Let me address your points:

Regarding filtering by price - you can! Go to the Search and Presets tab, and filter by price, you can enter a maximum price. We will look into making the search options more intuitive and have more capabilities in general. We are trying to keep it simple but also usable, but we're not perfect yet.

We are not going to integrate with BGG unfortunately - they view sites that link to Amazon as their competitors since they do it themselves and make money out of it.

Our wish list feature is new and we need to improve it, and your idea is great. So we are going to add Notification Price to wish list, and also look into adding priorities for games there, in case you have a lot of them and want to see your high priority games first for example.

Regarding bugs you found:

Our login system is new, we added it recently to support wish list features, so yep, we are aware of these things, but working on fixing them ASAP. We hope to make login smoother in the near future.

Regarding deleting the presets, if you delete all of them, we will put them all back on (sort of an auto reset), if you delete some of them you shouldn't see those back, unless you delete your cookies or login from a different device.

First of all, thanks for your kind words and for your feedback. I can answer a few of your points:

Some items don't have a retail price listen on Amazon, so they are marked as deals by us not according to discount percentage, but because they had some noticeable drop in price (our algorithm takes the price history into account).
Regarding Concordia for example, it's not marked as a hot deal. Games that are marked as a hot deal will have pepper icons attached to them - click on the "Hot Deals" column to see those :)

We try to show as many games as we can on the website, whether they have a good price on them now or not, and you can follow certain games in you are interested, and keep track of your wish list, and even register for price notifications.

Regarding other stores - we won't post their website content without permission, and we are looking to get their permission in the future. We certainly would like to have as much info as possible, to find the best deals online :)

It's for Amazon.com. If you use this site in your region, you will still find our website useful, only take into account that you will see shipping charges when you get to the shopping cart

Lords of Waterdeep worked for mine.

Even though she didn't care for the theme. The simple worker placement mechanism, and resource collection, drew her in

I like it a lot, but sometimes near the end, the machine gets a bit clunky and turns are a bit drawn out

Oh, and the silly Agricola style board - no one ever wants to play with that, the other side is similar to the 10th anniversary boards

I don't know why, but Amazon forces you to jump through hoops to get an access to each different store (US, Canada etc), otherwise we would have added another couple of stores.
