The value story

The value story

It has been discounted 64 times in the 13 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 50 percent, about 9 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago.

Its score sits in the top 1 percent of its genre. It is pricier than 90 percent of its genre, and better reviewed than 99 percent. The nearest things to it, Tabletopia (free, scores 10) and Chess Ultra ($12.99, scores 37), are both worse buys on this math.

More about Tabletop Simulator

17 of the 800 Steam-purchase reviews sampled here come from buyers who refunded the game, sampled from reviews written April 2024 to October 2026. That is fewer refunded reviewers than 7 in 10 paid games this site has sampled to the same depth, and among the 798 games in its genre sampled this deeply, 722 have a larger share. Inside the two-hour refund window, 76 percent of the 2,735 reviews written there were positive, against 96 percent overall, and those are 6 percent of everything written about it.

HowLongToBeat players log 9.6 hours as a typical playtime, and completionists log 1225, 128 times as much.

Reviews
Gates the score. Weak reviews cap it, and nothing reaches BANGER without strong ones
Reach3.5M+ owners
How many own it and play it, by SteamSpy's estimates (an old snapshot), the biggest driver for a game with no ending
MonetizationNone
No in-game purchases. Paid DLC exists and is not docked
For context

AI contentNone disclosed
From the developer's own Steam disclosure. No disclosure is not proof of none, so it does not move the score

What players say

Good game for table top sessions, I plan to use for many boardgames with friends who live in different cities, and for DnD campaigns, there are plenty of work shop items to help run a DnD campaign with an easy system to save session prep to be loaded in an instant

This isn't really a game into itself, it's a platform for ten billion other games. You'll know if you need this, because it's the only thing that does what it does.

Uses AI generated content for headers and news updates, can't even put effort in to make a banner. It's been years since this has had a meaningful update. Whilst I am not necessarily saying don't buy it, wait for a sale if possible if you are planning on getting it. Sadly, this is pretty much the only decent TT sim on the market that has a meaningful amount of community-made and curated content.
