Turn Order: Progressive in Board Games

Definition The "Turn Order: Progressive" mechanic in board games refers to a system where the order of play changes based on specific events or actions taken during the game. This shift in turn order can happen in various ways, but it typically modifies the sequence to benefit players according to their in-game performance or decisions.

Applications Progressive turn order is often used to balance competitive play and add a strategic layer to games. For example, a player who is lagging might receive a boost by moving earlier in the next round, while leading players may need to adapt their strategies to maintain their advantage.

Strategic Implications This mechanic incentivizes players to think tactically about their actions. It may encourage risk-taking or conservative play, depending on one's position in the turn order. Additionally, it often results in dynamic gameplay where no single player can dominate the game due to fixed turn positioning.
