Tabletop Playground

awesome twilight imperium suppport

VS TTS for Prototyping, this game is better, Its basically a somewhat slimmer TTS with some sensible QoL updates, especially for Wargaming and much better mod handling, yes no steam workshop sucks but the package system is far superior and much less of a headache, plus Mod.io is pretty painless to set up and use given it has Steam as a Federated sign in option.

VS TTS For playing with People, TTS wins just because its been out for forever and has all the....Privateered....games you could wish for.

I bought it for Prototyping mostly because I was annoyed at TTS's mod loading scheme and I'm happy with my purchase. Plus game is still getting support so there's more stuff to be added.

From player perspective who wana quick editor sometime, and After playing TI4 here my view of TTPG after detailed study of controls interface and other. And plenty of time spend in Board game and TTS..

PROS
-Better scripted game (there is "but")
-Better Graphic - at first time when i open i think is worst over tts so no big change.
-Better organized things, interface and layout so it looks neater and cleaner.
-There is visual screen auto and button in Agenda, Strategy and is better
than in tts. There is still no turn-visual reference for easy of play. Only you have some
sort of game happening in chat.
-Its harder to bild something in game like quick reference, you need exit from
game.. and after that is just harder. but once you use to it can be good. Permissions in
game is better what make TTPG beter in this segment.

CONS
-Zoom is bad, its just go there and back you can't stay there, you need constantly hold
Space, and is hard to do anything and see card in details, if you press ALt to magnify
card is just broken. Ther is no other Zoom like magnifying glass. SO this zoom is only
good for quick see something.
-Camera save -quick movement with shortkey do not exist (but you can save hahah)!
wich make game hard to move, zoom and play, so you just need move and zoom
manualy with mouse and keyboard.
-CHAT is harder to follow and there is no customisation
-TTS just have more option and setting and what i miss there i can't find here..


Well this still need some work, but have potencial. game also broken once, some thing stop working couple of time like mouse wheel.
Becasue there is only Yes and No i will give this game No for now but grade is 6/10.. TTS is 8/10 +more game

If youre looking to work on content for your friends and community, it's at most alright. Compared to table top simulator, which is the only reason you're looking at this. It's not worth the switch.

It's a big money sink to get a group into this new game, and the tools and items simply aren't there to easily make content for them. If there was a way to easily convert TTS mods into this, I could recommend considering the jump. But for now its not worth it. Frankly I can't think of a single thing it did that felt substantially new. Besides maybe a slightly more robust editor for items.

For all of this: I do NOT Recommend
A lot of review tell us that "TableTop PlayGround" is better than "TableTop Simuulator".
I am very happy to not had buy and pay like 25$Cad to get "TableTop Simuulator".
Well, there is no kind of game frame informations at all, game frame like "Player 1, it's your turn" or "Player 1 Won the game!" All of the ones i tryed where frameless game with no clues on how to play , at all.
No way to know the rules and how to play the given 4 little games or downloaded one game.
I do not get a try on the editing function, i just wanna play solo... but we can't man! oh my gosh, with a robot player at least, nope, solo you play [player 1 and player 2, not so fun heh! For all of this: I do NOT Recommend

One day there will be a way to import TTS mods! And then nothing can stop us, muahahahahaahahaha!

I am a game designer who is very interested in Virtual Table Top programs to help prototype games and get players to the table for playtesting. I downloaded and opened up the implementation of CATAN to test TTP. Simply picking up objects and then placing them was difficult as objects would not sit on the table neatly. This would be a typical use case for any gamer. The fact that they have not polished this to help players engage speaks to the overall quality of this product so far. I'll stick with Tabletop Simulator for now.

This is the better version of TTS.

It offers a great, easy-to-use in-game editor and a better mod system (more on that in a moment).

While it is a better game than TTS in terms of modding, graphics, and controls, it still lacks community support.

A big complaint among users is the missing workshop support. This is a valid complaint because we are all used to how things are with Steam Workshop. But if you start using it, it's actually way better. This is mainly true for players because there are no more missing assets. Stuff just works. Also, as a creator, using mod.io is easy.

I would mainly recommend this to creators and people who don't mind the sparse content. Keep in mind, the game is still in early access, and with more players and creators getting involved, it has the potential to grow much faster. Your support could help shape its future, and the devs seem to be responsive to community feedback.

Be active, bring friends, and join their Discord. You'll most likely have a good time.

This game needs ALOT more time. No games to play yet. Editing and player controls aren't there yet. Only time will tell

Creating in this program is so much more streamlined and organized than with simulator. I hope this picks up as a great alternative to simulator.

Works well, not Tabletop Sim, has ARCS.

Feels good to me!

Way better graphics and faster than TTS. Modding is much easier and more maintainable.
