31. May 2020 18:26 • Luq B1 • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

Would it be really nice to be able to cancel a card you just played, or even have an "undo" button to reset your turn when you play a card and things didn't go as you planned :D

5. Jun 2020 17:22 • Lymon Flowers • Developers would like more information about this suggestion:

I am considering this, but maybe later after the release. But this is difficult as there are multiple interactions with powers that makes this of limited interest

Ack

Agreed by Restoration Games team that it would be nice to "Undo" a card if its play did not involve another player making choices. Sometimes you click on the wrong card, or counted the spaces wrong.

It is now possible to change your mind during auction.

Regarding in-game play, it is difficult to implement because of automatic moves, constant players interaction. I am still pondering on how and if to implement this.

Maybe instead of an undo button, it could be a confirmation button? I know BGA is meant to be played on a computer, but I (along with many others) play on mobile almost as often for convenience. A big problem I have in that case is having big fingers on a tiny screen. I've lost matches for no other reason than accidentally selecting the wrong spot to move my car. I could imagine a functionality whereby you select a location, then before automating the car movement, the location remains highlighted and you can "confirm" the location before committing to the move.

I was going to win! But i played a card that would not play...I didn't know I was blocked, I had space on the left...but sometimes we are blocked and sometimes we are not. I hate playing a card and finding out it wont play...and I could have played a different card to move the blockage. An Undo would totally fix this issue.

Undo or confirm button would be Soo welcome in this game.

2. May 2022 10:12 • Natokh • Developers agree that it is a good idea and intend to work on it:

It's really a pitty that there is no undo function in the game. I accidentally played a card that didn't allow me to move my car at all, because I overlooked the fact that overtaking was not possible from the particular field I was standing on. Although no other car had moved yet, I still couldn't take the card back.

21. Nov 2022 23:22 • Phoxtrot • Developers agree that it is a good idea and intend to work on it:

Yeah, as long as no other player has taken an action (moved his car or explicitly refused to do so because of some power allowing him to do so during your turn) , you should be able to reset your turn.

Obviously, the initial bidding phase and the 3 betting on the winner actions have to be handled somewhat differently.

Hard work, I know...
