Virtual Table Tops are a fantastic way to enjoy your favorite TTRPGs likeDungeons & Dragonsin the digital world. However, choosing the best service to use for remote play can be difficult depending on your needs. There are a lot of VTT services to choose from, but the search for a perfect solution for every game is never-ending. Tabletop Mirror is the latest VTT service to try and achieve that perfection, offering the promise of total control over your games without sacrificing ease of use.
Two services currently hold dominate the VTT market -Roll20 and Foundry. The problem with that is you have to choose between ease of use, or a system that can be customized. Anyone needing a flexible VTT is referred directly to Foundry for its powerful homebrew capabilities, whereas Roll20 is the better option if you just want a VTT that’s easy to navigate. Tabletop Mirror is a platform designed to allow for smooth play like Roll20 with the customization offered by Foundry.
Although Tabletop Mirror is still in its infancy as a platform, it is still capable of running games with its current features. At the time of writing, existing pick-up-and-play content is limited, but additions to rulesets and updates to the UI have been frequent and continue to make the platform easier to approach.
Tabletop Mirror Is The Perfect Balance Of Customization And Ease Of Use
Improvements to Tabletop Mirror as well as new features are being added all the time.A full development roadmapis available on the site with multiple community suggestions added soon after they were requested. Within two months its creators added new systems for handling images and game statistics and overhauled the user interface on top of other minor fixes. The hard work and quick progress demonstrates just how much Tabletop Mirror wants to provide gamers with an alternative platform for TTRPGs.
The platform is now seeking funding to add monetization and publishing features, allowing anyone to release game systems for purchase through its site. The dream of merging a marketplace like DrivethruRPG with the abilities of a VTT is certainly an attractive one and especially desirable for small teams to launch digital versions of their tabletop games for purchase with built-in VTT functionality. Interested gamers can visit the company’s Reddit r/rpg AMA on August 5th and Backerkit launch on the 6th to size up this new competitor.
