Pick the Games
Remove the pain from friend groups deciding what to play
My friend group take about 5 days to come up with a single game we all want to play. Then we play it for a few days and the cycle continues. I solve that here. You make a board -> you set the platform and genres -> you start swiping like on tinder. You'll end up with a list of games that EVERYONE is interested in playing. Then just pick (or let the site pick for you) and now 5 days of arguing on whatsapp is now gone and you're back to playing rust anyway.
Honestly, if you've been in a similar situation I feel you. We've been using this between us before I made it a full website. Games we thought we would never suggest we would all want to play together have now appeared at the top of the list. There's no more "What do you think of this game". It's all there!
We are mainly in discord so I tied it up with a discord bot and also serve an activity. It helped but I already had the majority of that built so I added it in anyway!
Your swipes are saved, so if you play with several different groups/platforms - your swipes continue over when you join a new board. You have full permission to reset all your votes, exclude your saved swipes or re-add them in.
There's also custom pools that you can setup and apply to the board. So youre own curated list of games (perhaps you made a top200 games over the past 10 years list) you can select from.
I'm currently supporting ps5/xbox/pc and nintendo switch. I try to source crossplay ability so if your group consists of ps5 and pc. your list of swipable games should be just for multiplayer games that are crossplay between ps5 and pc.
The data isn't fully there yet, it's challenging collecting and confirming it but I have 2979 currently loaded in.
The swiping is dead easy:
Swipe up = maybe I want to play this
Swipe right = yes!
Swipe left = No
Swipe down = Ban.
The difference between a no and a ban is that ban is just removed completely from the pool. If there's absolutely no chance someone will want to play that game, then why raise a discussion about it? Respect the choice and pick from any other game!
Well. I'm curious what you think. This is the first time I've done anything on producthunt! I hope you like it!
