There are a large number of BOARD18 game boxes available to be down loaded and
installed in any current instance of a BOARD18 web site.
A current instance is any instance with a BOARD18 release number greater than or equal to 2.5.5.
This link points to a folder containing all of the available BOARD18 game boxes.
This folder is a Google Docs folder. The game boxes are stored in this folder as zip files.
Use this procedure to download the zip file for a game box to your local computer:
[1]
- Make sure that you are using the "List View" of the folder (not the "Grid View").[2]
- Find the zip file in the folder.
- Hover your cursor over the row for this zip file.
- A Download button will appear on the right of this row.
- Click this download button.
