What’s new on Boardit

The changes to the games and pages, newest first, dated to the day they went live. Found something broken or missing? Email hello@playboardit.com.

  • Property Rush: landing on Earnings Tax now lets you choose — pay $200, or 10% of everything you own.
  • Who’s the Spy: your word, or “You are the spy”, stays on the final results screen too.
  • The host of a new room gets a short tip on inviting friends, with the invite link one tap away.
  • Share result: after a win, share a picture of who won and how fast.
  • After a game, an optional one-question check: what nearly stopped your group?
  • Quick reactions at the table: 👍 🎲 👏.
  • Gentler animations, and real recorded sounds for taps, your turn, cards and players joining.
  • Trivia Tavern: switching a room to Private now always saves.

  • Vote kick in every game: when a player stops responding, the others can vote them out (two votes at three or four players, more at bigger tables).
  • Who’s the Spy: your word, or “You are the spy”, now stays on screen for the whole round.
  • Property Rush: a full-width board on phones, and Earnings Tax is now 10% of everything you own.
  • Your profile shows your real games played and won.
  • Every lobby has a How to play button and a Share invite link button.
  • New sounds for buying, drawing a card and winning, and one mute switch that silences everything.
  • Draw and Guess keeps your guesses when the connection drops, and sends them again when it returns.
  • A host on a slow connection no longer gets stuck in the lobby when the game starts.

  • The trivia topic pages now show sample questions from the rebuilt question bank.

  • Trivia Tavern rebuilt: nearly 4,000 checked questions across 38 topics, a fairer deal of questions, new scoring, and a richer answer reveal.
  • Every guide and comparison page now says who wrote it and when it last changed.
  • Comparison pages corrected where they described other games inaccurately.

  • The guide pages have their own navigation bar and read properly on a phone.

  • New game: Draw and Guess, for 2–12 players. One person draws a secret word while everyone else types guesses.
  • Drawings arrive live, stroke by stroke, and phones get a shapes button for quick circles and lines.

  • An About page saying who runs Boardit and how it pays for itself.
  • A table open in a browser tab now recovers by itself when the site is updated, and browser translation no longer breaks it.

  • Every game page has a button that opens a room for that game.
  • Guests can now log in or sign up without being sent back to the games page.
  • Ludo: bringing a piece home earns another throw.
  • A new Trivia room starts with every topic selected.
  • Rooms no longer bounce when you scroll on an iPhone, and all five lobbies share one layout.

  • Who’s the Spy: 25 seconds for each clue, a clue may be a short phrase, and a round ends when the table votes rather than on a clock.
