Every game on Kallax.io has its own page with the game’s details, which of your friends and communities own it, and related games and events. You get there by clicking View details or View Game Info on a game anywhere on Kallax.io, for example in search results, your collection, an event or the barcode scanner.

​
Add the game to your collection

Under the cover image, click Add to Collection. If you already own the game, the button says Log play instead, to start a play of it. See Play logging. To track a second copy, use Add to collection in the game’s ⋮ menu in Search, and Edit my copy to change the copies you have. Click the copy icon next to it to copy a link to the page and share it with someone.
Some cafés and stores show their library on a shared screen. There, the button says Open on Mobile and shows a QR code, so you can carry on browsing on your own phone.

​
Game details

Next to the cover you will find:
  • The title, and the original title if you are seeing a translated one.
  • The designers.
  • How much language you need to understand to play, not counting the rulebook.
  • Player count, playtime in minutes and complexity.
  • Mechanics and categories.
  • View on links to the game on BoardGameGeek and, when the game is there, on Board Game Arena and Tabletopia, where you can play it online.
If a game is hidden from search results, for example because it is a promo or unofficial item, the page tells you. It can still be part of a collection.
