Vassal is the best way to enjoy more than two thousand board games (mainly strategy and gambling) from your computer, either with friends in the same room or over the Internet.
To start, the first thing you will have to do once you have installed the program is download any of the more than 2500 modules that are available from the official website. There you can find modules like Risk, Carcassone or Arkham Horror, all of them with different expansion packs and additional modifications to expand your games.
Each module has its own rules, but in general terms the program will allow you to do everything the normal board game allows you to do: roll the dice, move the pieces, pick up cards, etc. Each game also has a dedicated tutorial that will teach you how to play. However, some of the modules do not include the rules of the game, so you will have to know them before playing.
Vassal is an app with incredible potential. The number of hours of fun that it can offer thanks to the enormous amount of playable modules it has is almost infinite. All you need to get the most out of it is a group of friends and a free afternoon.
