About this deal

In some games we’d start with our cup holders next to us and then later move them to the end rails where they were still easy to reach, but gave us a bit more elbow room. While other tables might include a sunken play area that can be covered for storage, the Prophecy cuts out the middleman with its hand-cranked lift mechanism. Play a game on the table’s flat surface, before lowering the central play area and covering it. The outside edges are rounded which our resting arms appreciate. They also have an inside edge place for holding cards upright. We really appreciated this feature when playing the cooperative game Xenoshyft where we could set up cards that everyone could benefit from. The rails have a slot for holding cards.

First of all, I'm not an English Native, so I'm not sure what are the right words for what I want. Like a lot of people (not only in the board gaming community, but also a lot of people), I have an IKEA table. Specifically the Bjursta, big enough for 4 people, and 6 with extensions. I'd love if the table was just a little more wider for some board games (Scythe, Eclipse for example), but it still works, it just becomes a little cramped (84cm wide). In addition to this red mat, there are other themed mats available such as the Adventure, Dungeon, Space, Castle, and more. The game mat is a great addition. So are the trays and cup holders. In fact, while on the folding table we leaned on the edge rails plenty and it never tipped even a bit. Even though the side rails hang over the edge of the table underneath, we didn’t have to be dainty. We could lean on them as much as we wanted without worry about any part of the game shifting. The rails are a nice arm rest as well. Our typical table to play on is an old oval dining table in the basement. The Game Topper covers it nicely and gives us added space to boot. Being a rectangle on a square table is nice.With the playing surface corralled by edge rails, it also means no more dice rolling off the table! Our Game Topper has a permanent home on our basement table.

First and foremost, as well as the external metal rail, the Megan has an ingenious wooden ‘lip’ rail running all the way around the edge of the interior game space, which does double duty. It’s a marvellous card holder we never knew we needed – but Geeknson also makes adorable little acrylic bins that hang off the internal rail just like the wooden accessories on the outside.It’s a sturdy piece of furniture that won’t just be tossed around. We’ve left it put together on a dining table we’ve been using in our basement for games. When we had buddies over for game night last week we simply moved it over to the folding table. That way one game could be played on the dining table and another on the Game Topper. (Yes, we all wanted to play on the Topper.) Additional accessories can be attached to the table’s perimeter, too, using a magnetic rail system. Add cup holders, dice trays, card shelves, or a ‘master shelf’ to accommodate your GM screen and tabletop RPG books. You can even customise the Prophecy with a gridded, wet-erase battlemat, or an acrylic overlay that lets you annotate maps and notes. Minute to Teach - We aren’t exaggerating. You can learn these games in a minute. They play in about 20. Still, they have interesting decision spaces, beautiful components, and balanced rules.

Whilst we will do everything we can to meet the delivery times above, there may be factors outside of our control and we cannot guarantee delivery within this time frame. The absolute best part of the Game Topper is that we totally feel like we’ve leveled-up our game experiences. BEFORE… AFTER! Last week, I had a few friends over for games and the Game Topper was out and ready to go. It’s such a draw that whenever anyone entered we had to stop and talk about the topper. It didn’t matter if we were in the middle of a game.Having run a small gaming cafe, higher level gaming tables were something we'd been looking at for a long while. However, between building your own 'make-do' at the cost of materials and time, up to the flashy, all bells-and-whistles style options available at the top end of the market - there was nothing. A void. And so our small team of gamers/designers/great coffee makers/joiners started to plan, and plan they did!
