Board games are
better together ʕᵔᴥᵔʔ

Gather your players, share a game library, and plan game nights in one place.

Gather.

A private group for friends, or a public community for your town.

A gaming group is a private little place for the people you already play with. A local community is open to everyone, for meeting new players and getting games going in your area. Either way, you decide who gets in and what they get to see.

Invite with a link

Share a link to your group and community. You decide if everyone is welcome or their request has to be accepted.

Share the work

Make trusted members moderators, so they can welcome newcomers and keep troublemakers out.

Customize

Switch feature on/off and customize your community page so it fits just right for the kind of community you are running.

Get found, or don't

Everything starts unlisted. When you're ready, make your community known on the explore page and the map.

The more, the merrier.

Share.

A game library everyone can browse.

In a group, every member's collection joins one shared library, automatically. A community can use your own collection or a dedicated one as its library, so newcomers know what they can play.

Group libraries

Members' collections are combined and automatically updated as people add games. Members can opt out of sharing.

Community libraries

Use your private collection for the community or create a dedicated collection. Or no collection, you decide.

See who owns it

Every board game in a group shows whose shelf it lives on, so you know who to ask to bring it at the next game night.

Members only, or open

You decide who sees what. Keep the board game library for members only, or let everyone browse it.

Plan.

Game nights without the group chat chaos.

Create events and share them with your community, or open it up to everyone. Kallax.io helps settle the eternal questions when, what, and who's bringing it. We will remind people that they have upcoming events and notify you when they RSVP.

Find a date

Offer a few time slots, let members mark when they're free, and pick the winner. Everyone who said yes gets marked as attending.

Vote on what to play

Nominate board games and vote for what to play. Fair elections with euro-style, borda or simple majority voting.

Who brings what

The hauling list shows which games are coming and who's carrying them. No reason to have 5 copies of Codenames.

Limited seating

Don't have room for 84 people? The site supports limited seating and waitlists. First come, first serve.

Let others join

Find a new friend or nemesis. Open up your board game event to the public and let others find it on the world map.

No account required

Yet another account? No, not if you don't want to. Your participants can do everything with a one-click guest account.

Chat.

A home for the conversation.

Switch on the Chat tab and your group or community gets its own chat room, right on its page. Game nights can have their own chats too, and members can message each other directly.

A room for everyone

One chat right on your page. Groups keep it to members, communities can open it to everyone.

Game night chats

Each game night can get its own chat for snacks, rides and rules questions.

Activity feed

New game nights and library additions show up in your members' and followers' feeds.

Stay in the loop

Get a ping on your phone when there's news, or mute a chat when you need some quiet.

Running a café, game store or bar instead? Kallax works for businesses too.
