Just a quick re-post of a popular lockdown deal.
Another 50% off deal on Tabletop Simulator, this time including the 4 pack too. Offer ends in 32 hours.
Play board games online or offline with Tabletop Simulator.
Tabletop Simulator is provided via Steam for Windows, Mac, and Linux. A free Steam account is required.
Haven't hosted a poker night with this before. But I will say you need everyone to be pretty good with gaming and computers to make a game work through tabletop simulator. So don't expect your non-gaming mates to play this with you.
Otherwise, just about every game works perfectly well as long as everyone knows how to use the game.
Yeah we're all experienced steam users, I'm sure more than one of my mates will figure out how to flip the table.
It depends how computer literate you are, if you've played games before it's pretty easy. Do I think my parents could figure it out? Probably not. But if you've got an Xbox or a computer that you play games on, and are willing to put in 5-10 minutes figuring out the controls it's very easy.
Not poker specifically, but I’ve done some board/card game sessions on it several times this year. Combined with some voice chat, it’s actually really good.
Perfect. Now I just need 3 friends.
Included games: Backgammon, Cards, Chess, Checkers, Chinese Checkers, Custom Board, Dice, Dominoes, Go, Jigsaw Puzzles, Mahjong, Pachisi, Piecepack, Poker, Reversi, RPG Kit, Sandbox, Solitaire, and Tablet.
There are mods on the workshop for pretty much any boardgame you can imagine. User created so varying levels of quality and completeness.
I try to stick to games I own the physical copy of, or that someone who's playing owns, but that's a personal choice.
As for learning, even though I'm pretty good with computers and boardgames I tend to stick to playing games where everyone knows how to play the actual game. Then you're just learning the tts interface for it.
Oh neat!! Got a link?
Sorry if that's a noob question but, I'm not sure about the site your talking about to get mods.
it's built into Steam.
