You can play from several computers but not from the same version. The decision-making requires privacy unless in a team session, and even then there is a lot of back and forth on quick decisions.

Did a search, came up with no answers. What Id like to know is what tells the presenter to activate, as in how does it know whether or not the seat is being occupied. Secondly what would cause intermitent issues with the passenger seat (not occupied) to activate, what would cause it to go in.

Considering the price, we did not see much reason to pursue local coop which would still mess up the player experience while saving just a few bucks.

I'd love to play this with the GF on the couch.

Originally posted by:No chance for local co-op on the offline version? Even team play against bots?I have to be frank: the chances are very, very low.The same functionality ('play with a friend against the other team, human or AI') is already available in Gremlins, Inc.What the hotseat would change, is allow to replicate the existing functionality with fewer items of hardware (1 computer instead of 2). We feel that the benefits would be not comparable to the effort required, and that we have other features in the pipeline that would yield biggest impact across the player base.Sorry about that! Originally posted by:The game is definitely not pricey and thoroughly enjoying my purchase so far. But I would definitely love to see the ability to play local offline. Throw this on the big screen with my wife and other family members on a random night, would be good fun!

Though I can see the potential issues with being able to see eachothers cards.not only that, but how would you handle selection of Misfortunes? Then everyone will see the contents of the MF deck every time anyone opens it to choose one.or how do you handle player conflicts?or how do you handle back-and-forth when offering someone a chance to do something like 'pay $50 or pass this card?' The box of potential UI issues is quite big.

Is not going to work well in a hotseat mode. The best way to play is for each player to have their own screen and to make sure that other players cannot see it, as exposing one's cards would mess things up (and in team mode, you can see your team mate's cards on your own screen anyway). This is of course a problem that no other hotseat-supporting game has ever solved. And I certainly don't own several of them.

There are other features that are more important and push lootboxes harder, like funneling players into timer-enforced Ranked. I've tried that, and the lack of playerbase combined with certain specific players being the only game in town night after night is burning that mode for me quickly. Play styles are easy enough to identify, so a typical game involves one of us going all-in on the other while the low ranked bystanders in the room profit. Because of MMR-based matchmaking, there's no way I can queue dodge this, nor any way to disincentivise either of us from going all-in on the other skilled player in the room. It isn't rule breaking either.So yeah. Play with really stupid AI or buy a lot of computing devices and copies of Gremlins. Those are your main options.

Originally posted by:This is of course a problem that no other hotseat-supporting game has ever solved. And I certainly don't own several of them.I'd love to find out about the digital board games that support hotseat multiplayer and that would have mechanics similar to Gremlins, Inc.I'm especially curious about what happens in stations like this:. player A checks player C's hand for possible criminal cards.

player C loses 2 cards, goes to Jail. player B gets the turn, passes Plant without stopping, then searches player A's hand for Courthouse cards and finds none.

player C's turn beginsWe now have player C who had 2 cards replaced, and changed location. In a regular multiplayer game, she would be intensely analysing the 2 new cards and the context of new location where she is transported, to prepare for her turn.In a hotseat multiplayer, she won't even see which cards she lost – because at the time when she lost them, player A's cards were on the screen, and she would be not allowed to see the events.At the same time, neither player A nor player C will see that player B just passed the Plant without stopping (a valuable information matched with funds or cards).

And player C won't even know that player A's hand was searched, and that player A had no Courthouse cards there.There is a lot of context that happens at every player's turn, that is essential to decision making of all the other players. The skill of winning in this game is the skill of reading the intentions of others. Where did that player go?

Why did she not do the action that seems rational here? Who searched whom? Who stopped on Income on the way to Inferno instead of turning north to the Casino? Etc.To implement this in a hotseat environment would require telling everyone to just look away, and then look back, and then look away again, multiple times during each round.

Which in a 60-minute session would result in two hour torture. Originally posted by:funneling players into timer-enforced RankedLess than 50% of sessions in Gremlins, Inc. (roughly 1,000 sessions each day) happen in ranked multiplayer mode. You're making assumptions based on your own experience, but this is not what the data shows. There are different ways to play this game, and different players have fun in different formats. We don't lock any gameplay mechanics behind paywalls, the game is the same for everyone, so it doesn't make a difference to us whether someone is playing online, offline, in a custom session or in a multiplayer session.

What you call torture in hotseat play, really isn't to those of us who make use of it. Back before I could afford having a PC for every member in my household, we would make use of hotseat mode in several 4X-genre games, and I shouldn't need to explain that its significantly more time consuming to do that than it is to play out a standard game of Gremlins. I also routinely tabletop game for sessions that last as long as 2-8 hours depending on the game.You're also assuming that most of the skill-based decision making is a concern to local players. Even among the online community, the majority of players aren't really using these tools to their intended benefit - bad players outnumber the good. In a local setting, you're often playing with friends/family/kids that have little to no exposure to competitive gaming. The godfather 2 online subtitrat. Neutering some of the skill-based, real-time decision making isn't a big loss for these groups.

Its about having a social experience, not seeing who is the best player at the table.Less than 50% of sessions in Gremlins, Inc. (roughly 1,000 sessions each day) happen in ranked multiplayer mode. You're making assumptions based on your own experience, but this is not what the data shows.

We're looking at a variety of play styles and we balance them based on the actual data of how people play.I am making assumptions, but in turn you're assuming that when I say 'funneling players into Ranked', I should count the rooms which are private (which a new player cannot join) and the rooms with a minimum session count to join (which a new player cannot join) and the singleplayer/tutorial rooms (which are still online, but obviously cannot be joined). Those rooms are statistical noise, irrelevant except to the players contained in those rooms.A typical lobby on the Amsterdam server during the hours I play consists of a Ranked queue that typically takes 5-40m to pop (speaking from personal experience at the 115-120 mmr range of the spectrum), and typically zero public rooms open during that queue, sometimes one room. Well, you can go the route Talisman does, where players can basically just hide or reveal their hand with a button. So basically it switches to someone's turn, their cards are hidden by default. They ask the other players to look away and look at their hand and figure out their options.

Hell, it even lets you queue up cards (like spells) to get automatically played as needed.Or you have something like Lords of Waterdeep, where you can turn on play recap. So when a player's turn starts, they get a quick recap of what everyone else did since their last play (so they'd see that A checked C's hand, C went to jail and B passed the Plant.Then they'd be fully informed for their turn.My wife and I (and our friends when we hang out) will often play Hotseat games like Talisman, Lords of Waterdeep, The Witcher, etc together. There's plenty of such games out there. I don't see why Gremlins couldn't do the same.I mean, I got this game through the Humble Bundle. I wouldn't have bothered buying it otherwise, because there's no hotseat. That's one of the main selling points for most digital board games.

Basically the ability to play all these great board games without needing to set up an actual board and everything. It's why a lot of board game companies are putting out digital versions these days, because they know it's easy money.

The Royal Game of UrThe Royal Game of Uris an ancient board game where players try to race all of their tokens across the board first. Four four-sided dice determine the allowed movement, and opposing pieces are removed from the board when landed upon. This combination of luck and strategy made this game one of the most popular board games in the world 3000 years ago, and it would form the basis for other token racing games like Backgammon that are still being played by millions today.Play theRoyal Game of Uryourself to find out what made it was so immensely popular!FeaturesPlay alone against the AI, or against someone else inHotseatmode!Choose between2 different routes, basic and advancedThree AI levelsUnlock new playing pieces by winning games against the AI.
