We're excited to announce that 2 new features have rolled out on Tabletopia for all players! With the addition of site-wide chat & player experience/leaderboards, we want to help encourage players to connect and learn something they maybe haven't tried before.

Player Experience & Leaderboards

You can now see every game you've ever played on Tabletopia in the “Experience” row in your profile. Simply go to your Profile while browsing Tabletopia and scroll down to the "Experience" row. In the upper left corner, you can see your total playtime and rank in every game.

Rankings are assigned by:

• "Beginner" = Less than 2 plays
• "Expert" = Between 2-5 plays
• "Veteran" = More than 5 plays.

Note: A “play” is based on the average playtime for the particular game. For example, if the average game of Calico takes 38 minutes, you will need to have logged 76 minutes of playtime to have “2 plays” (regardless of how many game rooms/sessions you have joined). Tabletopia detects when you are inactive from a game, so leaving your screen open and walking away won’t help you boost your playtime!

On every game page you can see the Leaderboard in the left column: these are the most experienced players ranked by playtime. You can switch to the “Month” tab to see only those who played the game in the last thirty days. If any of your friends have played the game, you will see a “Friends” tab to view their playtime.

If you click “More” below the leaderboard, you will go to the full leaderboard page for that game.

If you do not wish to be seen in leaderboards, go to your Profile -> Manage Account -> untick “Display my profile on Leaderboards”.

Chat & Messaging

You can now start a private chat with any other player on the site. This is designed to work in tandem with the Player Experience features and allow people to approach experienced players for a teaching game (or a duel!).

Abuse of the messaging system will not be tolerated, and Tabletopia reserves the right to suspend any account harassing other users.

You will see a chat icon on the bottom right of your screen while browsing the site, and you can use this to search for users via username and manage multiple chats. When you have a new message, you'll see a bubble notification to indicate unread messages.

You can quickly send your friends a message by going to the "Players" tab, hovering over their profile, and clicking the "send message" icon.

If you hover the mouse over any player in the Leaderboard, you will see an icon to send them a message (for example, to suggest playing the game) and a star icon to add them to your friends list. Also, you can see which languages the person speaks if they provided this information in their profile.

Happy gaming!
