What it does
Vassal is an open-source game engine for building and playing online adaptations of board games and card games.
As a game designer, scholar and gamer, Vassal has been a godsend not only during 2020–21, allowing me to play games remotely, play games that would require too much space and runfrom vassalengine.org

Play abstract strategy board games online with friends or against bots2025 · abstractboardgames.com · ▲180Thought I would post in celebration of 1 year of my website being online. I've been working on it on and off and currently the website allows users to play Hex, Tumbleweed, Amazons, and Connect 6 against friends or against practice bots. I've been a long time player of some of these games and I felt for a long time that the world could use a few more popular abstract strategy games compared to Chess or Go. If you try it, let me know what you think. I'm always looking for new games or new features to add :)
