Augmented tabletop · In development

Your cards, alive.

Tabletop Magic turns game night into a show. Play the card games you already own, and the table answers back with light and sound.

Tap a card to wake it.

The idea

Game night, with a sense of wonder.

You lay down a card and the table reacts. Light spills across it. Something stirs. The whole room hears it. Tabletop Magic adds light and sound to the card games you already love. Everyone at the table sees it at once, and the way you play doesn't change.

Bring your own games

No special editions, stickers or codes. The cards already on your shelf are the ones that come alive.

Heads up, not heads down

Nothing to wear and no screen to pass around. The magic happens on the table, in the middle of everyone.

Set up like a TV

Getting started should feel like plugging in a television. A few minutes, then you forget it's there.

A turn, reimagined

Same rules. A whole new feeling.

  1. 01

    Play your card

    Exactly as the rulebook says. Nothing about the game changes.

  2. 02

    The table responds

    Light and motion bloom across the card you played, made for that card.

  3. 03

    The room joins in

    Sound fills the space, so every play lands like a moment.

Made from scratch

Original, from the first spark.

Every animation is our own work, and every sound is ours or properly licensed. We love the artists behind the games we play, so we add to their work and never copy it.

Where we are

In active development.
