---Ask The Bellhop---00:11:48
Today we are talking about the best free ways to play board games online that don't require you to download anything to play.

This question comes from Sigurd Langseth who commented on our The Table Sat Empty article all about Board Game Arena.

They wrote "You should do one of these for Yucata and Boiteajeux too, and do a comparison after doing so"

In addition, we have had multiple people ask us about digital gaming due to most of us not being able to get together with our regular gaming groups at this time.
