FAQ

The game is not in the database. What should I do?

On the upload page click "Game not in the database? Request it" or open the "Request a game" page. Give the name and a BGG or Tesera link. A moderator will add the game and you will be notified.

My file fails the aspect ratio check

Each type has its own aspect groups (e.g. covers 1:1, 2:3 or 2:1) with a 3% tolerance. The upload form has a built-in cropper for the required group.

Why is my image "too small"?

Minimum sizes make sure images look good on high-density screens. Do not use plain upscaling: such files will be rejected. Find the original in a higher resolution instead.

How are files stored?

The original is stored as is (PNG, JPEG, WebP; PNG or ICO for icons). WebP variants in canonical sizes and thumbnails are generated. Icons also get an ICO container with 16–256 px entries.

How do I get images into my app?

Create an API key in settings and call /api/v1/games/best with the game's BGG or Tesera ID. See the API page for details.

Can I use images in a commercial product?
