It is very easy to accidentally select more workers than intended. It is very easy to use a tile rather than bid on it.

These are simple errors that would be impossible to make IRL, but they can have a major impact on the outcome of this long game.

I agree that a "confirm move" or "undo" option is necessary for this game.

This makes the game unplayable, tbh. It's a shame, because a lot of work has been put into developing it, and only a little more effort would be needed to make it playable.

17. Jun 2020 03:32 • yomikoma • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

multiple times in my first game I saw meeples in this format:

XXX
YY

and thought "grab the uneven one off the end".

This resulted in activating a tile with 3 workers when I could have used one. Even noticing my mistake immediately, it was too late to fix it.

Requiring a "confirm" especially when using more meeples than necessary would be very welcome.

Just played a game with my husband. I was unable to do several actions during the course of the game[102685264]. Ultimately, I lost the game as a result. Not a huge problem but it happened twice during pivotal points during the game and it is very frustrating. So frustrating that if an undo button is not implemented I would not play this game online.

26. Jul 2020 21:49 • blahedo • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

The interaction yomikoma describes is what I came to complain about---and nearly every other player in the game also tripped over this problem at least once. The most experienced of the group said "I've played this game dozens of times here and still do that sometimes". This error is absolutely not possible to make in a F2F game, so an Undo or Cancel would be very helpful here. (Or adjust the dialog, of course.)

27. Jul 2020 11:22 • CheekyWagwan • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

100% agree an undo last move would be helpful for all levels of players in Keyflower. Keyflower is one of those games where I find helping others to achieve with their current game feels nice and the right thing to do. So an undo would be amazing.

31. Jul 2020 19:34 • norse • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

I was about to use two more workers on a spot I had the high bid on. I am using a touch screen, so interaction is somewhat imprecise.

Because I didn't manage to touch the middle of the tile, the game interpreted my action as bidding two additional workers - meaning I've lost the action, lost two workers and didn't gain a thing.

A "cancel" or "confirm move" button at the end would have allowed me to correct this.

(my game was 103718826, the action was intended to use 2 meeples instead of raising my bid from 2 to 4)

31. Jul 2020 23:56 • MisterG • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

I agree that the interface would benefit from a cancel/confirm button. Too easy to make errors. I'm on a PC.

7. Aug 2020 15:43 • Acoustic_Llama • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

Also, the game selects the wrong tile sometimes when you click near the edge. An UNDO feature would allow the user to recover from this error.

27. Sep 2020 19:58 • mitcharf • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

I completely agree that some "confirm" button should be added before any action is committed. All game should have this, but especially the longer, more complex games.

3. Oct 2020 13:39 • Scottus • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

This game is the perfect candidate for an 'undo' or at least a 'confirm' button. The game state doesn't change and there is no new info revealed before the next player's turn. Please please please.

10. Nov 2020 04:58 • tomjwinter • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

Our last game, we had three people accidentally click on a bid tile during the Spring season, thus activating it instead of bidding on it. We restarted the game because of this. Now it happened again in our new game during the Summer season - instead of using 3 workers to outbid another player, they spent 3 workers to activate it. One bad move is enough to ruin a person's game. And it can unfairly hugely benefit another player (3 free workers next turn). Please add confirm/undo buttons after each turn.

22. Dec 2020 19:10 • Ironmann66 • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

I've played three games and had significant issues with not being able to undo incorrect worker selection (eg picking five workers instead of one, etc). I don't see us playing this again until this is implemented.

6. Mar 2021 04:01 • Chreotho • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

Struggling with my first try at using this implementation on BGA.

How long and how many votes does it take before this gets "analyzed by the developers"?

As of March 5, 2021, the bug has been open for almost a year, since March 26, 2020, with 62 votes.

19. Mar 2021 13:00 • unwiseowl • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

Chiming in to say this game definitely needs a 'confirm action' button.

A tight game I just played was utterly rauined by three different players accidentally paying a huge number of workers to perform actions. It should be an easy fix.

24. Mar 2021 23:43 • Johan IV • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

If you choose transport only to find out that the UI claims there are no valid transports, you can't cancel the transport.

27. Mar 2021 06:09 • jasonbcox • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

While the suggestion is a bit broad, my specific suggestion is to undo selection of number of workers before the turn ends. It should fix most of the issues the other comments are pointing at.

We had this issue arise no less than 3 times in one game, one such misclick which directly made a player lose the game.

2. Apr 2021 01:34 • SupaGerm • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

Every time we play, at least 1 of us bids all our workers instead of the number we want. The interface just doesn't click with us, and one player accidentally dumping off 5+ workers to an opponent ruins the game for everyone. The dumper is hamstrung and the dumpee has a huge advantage.

It's 2021. Undo buttons are not a new invention!

2. May 2021 17:59 • panaggio • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

it's too easy to make mistakes on this implementation, and most of them are really painful. It makes the experience horrible sometimes, doing the wrong thing because of a miss click or something. The interface itself is fine, the mistakes are just not because of it. Being able to undo an entire turn would be life saving.

1. Aug 2021 11:01 • no-dude • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

Please, please, please add an undo-button to this great game!!!!
Sometimes it destroys the whole strategy when you want to bid and instread - by mistake - place meaples on the tile :-(
THANKS!

20. Jan 2022 23:33 • norse • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

Just for one example: I was placing one meeple on a transport field. Instead, the game placed 5 (how is that even possible), with no way to undo. I've lost 4 meeples and an action, effectively sabotaging the game.

31. Jan 2022 20:00 • thetedinator • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

Adding my voice to all these people - BGA, you have an unplayable product on your website.

11. Feb 2022 15:58 • n_e_s_s_u_n_o • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

Hi everyone, I try to add the undo button, but I absolutely need to test it with someone that know the game better than me, and to check if I understood the request. I asked to Admin to move to private alpha so I can invite some of you to test it. Let me know if someone is interested. Thank you.

27. Feb 2022 22:21 • 1964 Boggle Champ • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

I can help test.

19. Apr 2022 07:10 • 1964 Boggle Champ • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

Please add undo button and turn confirm. It could work the way it does on Ultimate Railroads and Russian Railroads Thank you.

16. Jul 2022 03:18 • Seebo_dude • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

I am also willing to test if you still need testers

4. Mar 2023 17:21 • LordWaterdeep • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

undo badly needed

17. Oct 2023 19:50 • Luclid • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

Is this still in private alpha?

20. Nov 2023 14:55 • tmangan2 • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

When placing a tile in the final scoring, there was an option to "confirm" or "cancel". I ultimately decided that I would rather place a different tile than selected, so I used the "cancel" option. However, my tile disappeared. It's no longer available for placement. Did not work as I expected.

5. Apr 2024 22:55 • AbleDanger • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

Bumping. We REALLY need this!!!

22. Aug 2024 12:32 • rhodery • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

For a game of this type, an Undo or at the very least a Confirm button is a necessity, especially for bidding. I like this game a lot and the overall play is great, but the extremely unforgiving nature of the interface inclines me to not waste me time with it.

30. Sep 2025 00:26 • redmoon6584 • This suggestion has not been analyzed by delopers yet:

Would really like an undo button, as it is very helpful in other games. Accidental clicks or mistakes could be easily corrected without wasting a turn. Would like the option for steps within an action and actions. Thanks for your consideration!
