Tabletopia
For all lovers of classical board games, who want to have an opportunity to play online, developers created Tabletopia. This is a self-proclaimed online arena where players can choose from over 1000 different games, just like in real life. To do so, you can use your browser on a computer or get the platform on Steam, Google Play, or the App Store.
With Tabletopia, you can play popular games like chess, Secret Hitler, The Umbrella Academy, and many more. You can play with your friends or enter a game which is already in progress if there are some open seats. Some games are completely free on Tabletopia, but to have more options, you can buy a silver package (it’s $4.99 per month) or a gold one ($9.99 per month), which will give you access to exclusive games.
Tabletop Simulator is similar to Tabletopia in the sense that it also has popular games such as poker, Mahjong, chess, etc. What’s also great about this platform is that you can create unique games here or see what other people have built.
There are many well-known names on Tabletop Simulator, but you should remember that the majority of them were made by users, and not actual game developers. Tabletop Simulator is available on Steam for $20.
