attributes object

What a player judges a game by when deciding whether to play it. Distinct from `parameters`, which configures a particular game.

Properties

complexity integer Required

Rules and decision-space complexity, equivalent to BoardGameGeek's complexity weighting. 1 = trivial to learn and play, 5 = heavy ruleset with deep strategy.

minimum: 1maximum: 5
players array of integer Required

Supported player counts. One element means an exact count (e.g. [2] = exactly two players); two elements mean an inclusive range (e.g. [2, 4] = two to four players); three elements mean a range with the middle number being the recommended number (e.g. [2, 3, 5] = two to five players, plays best with three).

maxLength: 3 itemsminLength: 1 items
skill integer Required

How much of the outcome is determined by player skill rather than chance. 0 = pure luck (e.g. snakes and ladders), 10 = pure skill (e.g. chess, with no random elements).

minimum: 0maximum: 10
tags array of string Required
