## What is BG Extras?

BG Extras is the perfect companion app for your modern board game sessions. It brings together a variety of tools and utilities designed to assist you before, during, and after each game—without distractions or hassle.

With BG Extras, you can:

- Search for card information on the fly, without flipping through rulebooks. Especially helpful for games like A Feast for Odin, Grand Austria Hotel, or Arcs, where remembering card effects can be key to winning.

- Utilities like countdown, life points, etc

- Track player scores in a clean and organized interface—great for competitive play.

- Automatically calculate final scores at the end of the game, including cards in hand and special scoring rules. Perfect for games like Everdell, Fantasy Realms, Marvel Remix, or Neko Syndicate, where endgame scoring can be detailed or easy to miscount.

Everything is designed with a simple and intuitive interface so you can focus on what matters—playing. Whether you're a seasoned gamer or new to the hobby, BG Extras makes your gaming experience smoother and more enjoyable.

Turn your phone into an essential tool at the table!


## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.39 — 2026-05-22

New mini app to keep track of different resources from your games. Now if you travel, you can carry fewer things with you (for some games, it is really useful, trust me).

### 1.38 — 2026-04-22

New mini app to search for Nusfjord cards.

### 1.34 — 2026-02-14

In this version, you can share your games with BG Catalog.

Many mini-apps have a 'Share' option, and you can select the BG Catalog app to add the game. If you have it configured with BGG, it will be added there as well.

No need to copy the players' points one by one anymore ;-)

### 1.32 — 2026-01-21

This version has something very special, a board game called 8 districts that I, the creator of this app, have created. The game is free and to play you only need a deck of poker cards and a miniapp that is inside BG Extras.

It would be great if you try it

### 1.28 — 2025-12-29

Improvements in the Point Counter miniapp to facilitate scoring in games like Flip 7
