International Tabletop Day

Tabletop gaming is something that has touched the lives of millions of people from all over the world. The phenomenon is now getting its own day in recognition of the joy that it brings to people’s lives.

Tabletop gaming is not a new phenomenon, but it has morphed considerably. Tabletop games like Cluedo and Monopoly used to dominate, but now it has expanded significantly, particularly into the fantasy realm.

History of International Tabletop Day

Tabletop games proliferated on the PC. The original Diablo, Warcraft and Command and Conquer set the standard on the computer. But there’s been a movement back to real-world gaming thanks to a cluster of Dungeon and Dragons-like games taking physical form. Physical games have depth and complexity, and they allow players to interact with each other in person, not over an internet connection.

International Tabletop Day is a chance to formally recognize the movement and the healthy sense of competition and sportspersonship that it brings. The idea is to bring people to the table and get them to play against each other.

International Tabletop Day is also an opportunity for players to remember why they got into playing tabletop games in the first place. It’s all about pitting yourself against strangers and finding ways to survive through to the next turn.

People love Tabletop gaming because it gives them a chance to connect with people in their local communities. Many cafes now offer large tables specially designed to allow people to bring their tabletop games and play against one another. There is an increasing number of community events too, all of which help people indulge their passion for the activity.
