Spanish-Language Board Game Sites

My French-speaking friends refer to TricTrac as being the French equivalent.

I know this is a long shot, but does anyone out there know of a Spanish-language equivalent to BoardGameGeek?

    I haven't looked *that* hard, but there's none that I know of.

    It'd be hard to match the 'geek, too...

  2. Jorge,

    First of all: Welcome!

    I'm at a huge disadvantage when looking for non-English sites, as English is the only language I speak fluently.

    My wife is fluent in Spanish, which is one reason we're looking for a Spanish game-related site. She doesn't speak Spanish in her daily life, and she doesn't want to lose the language.

    We figure the challenge of translating a game will keep her skills sharp (and be a lot of fun).

  4. Mike,

    Thanks for the link - That's a game to help learn Spanish - I'm looking for a site that has a broad base of information on games which are published in Spanish.

    Eric,

    I hadn't returned to this post until now --- I'm wondering whether your wife went ahead with the game translation project. If so, I'd be glad to review her/your work.

    Cheers!

  6. Jorge,

    We're having trouble finding Spanish-language games. :) We found a few Spanish-language RPG sites, and she has been translating the Spanish version of FUDGE into English. Since I have the English version, it's fairly simple to find errors.

    There are also a Spanish-language guild on BGG. She's more active on the Geek this year than she has been in the past. Maybe she'll beinterested in the guild ...

    :)

    Thanks,

    Eric
