While this eventually might belong in #Customization > Plugin I thought I’d share this Discourse plugin I had worked on for our own self hosted forum.

It’s a simple turn based board game, where members can create, join and then play. I haven’t spent a lot of time on it, but there should be enough there to try it out and see what it does. The games themselves are simple but still fun.

Here’s how the game board looks on our forum:

The test board we have now is a little small, but it’s good try out with a 2 or 3 people. If there is interest then the next logical step would be a larger one for maybe 4 to 6 players. As it’s turn based it fits with forum use, with a community all on different time zones. I might add a computer player, but tbh it’s nice with people and chatting about moves etc.

The setup is pretty simple and just adds a ‘Create Game’ button on a category that you assign the game to, e.g. perhaps a special sub-category with permissions set up how you like.

All MIT license, forkable, so have at it if you code - I hope people enjoy it.
