Just love the concept and the games. The word and Verdoben are my all time favourites. :D
absolutely love it, great for a remote working team. Are there any specific video conference platforms you recommend using?
Love love love this! :-) Please tell me it works for Catan and Talisman? 😅😅
@yehoshua_zlotogorski We're building our way up to that... both in complexity and licensing 🙃. But technically speaking, any game where the mechanics have a shared/tabletop view (shared over the video call) plus a private/controller view (via everyone's phone) we can support it!
This is such a cool product! Do you have recommendations on which video conferencing platform this works best on or where you’ve had great experiences?
@kaustin Thanks KayeCee! Officially we're totally platform agnostic... as long as it supports screen sharing. With that said, "Make Zoom Fun Again" was in the running for our tagline, so that's certainly the one that's been tested the most. For teams, Teams and Slack work as well. More that we've tested with are listed here: https://www.gameapart.com/what-v...
Hi all! I'm the Founder and CEO of GameApart, and I'm super excited to launch on Product Hunt today! 👋
Our platform allows you to play party games with family, friends, and colleagues over any video conference tool (Zoom, Meet, Skype, Teams, Slack, etc.). 🃏
This past year we've all become accustomed to conducting business over Zoom, and now it's time to have some fun. For the last few years my friends and I had a standing game night, which usually meant we played a game or two while catching up, drinking, and generally just staying connected. The pandemic put a pause on that… until we figured out we could do it virtually, and--though we definitely miss in person hangouts--we actually had more of us showing up than ever before, since there was always SOMEONE traveling, with new kids, sick, etc. All we were missing was easy-to-play party games. Enter GameApart!
Over the last few months we've built a system to bring people together with our unique spins on popular games such as Cards Against Humanity, Heads Up, Taboo, Crazy Eights, and more. Additionally, we're collaborating with independent makers such as Done with 2020, Charty Party, and Neddy Games (more partnerships being announced soon!) to include their games as well. 🚀
1/ To begin, a host assembles their remote crew over any video conferencing app and selects a game from gameapart.com.
2/ All the players download our mobile app to their smartphone and connect to the host's game. The app is used to play their hands.
3/ Hilarity ensues.
For the Product Hunt community, we're offering 3-months of our ad-free experience. We have six games to choose from today, and we're releasing at least one new game a month. So let's get this party game started! 🥳
Have questions or feedback? We'd love to connect with you below!! 👇
Love this! We've been playing Catan - hacking it together by also connecting over WhatsApp/zoom while we play online as a group, but it's nice to have a new way to mix it up! Thanks for launching! 👏👏
@penny_watson00 Same here! Best part of the job is that it's our job to assemble and play games a couple times a week. Thanks for the support!
@magdalena_gorka We can't either! Hit us up with any questions or feedback that comes up when you do.
I think that people should vote the games, in this way lots of users can easily find the best games in here. Congrats on the launch.
@kdrnp Thanks Kadir--that's an interesting idea we hadn't considered, but definitely might in the future!
Congratulations on the launch - will think of this during our next team meeting-->building!
@dr_dani Thanks Daniel! Would love you feedback when you do, as we're just starting to roll out team-centric features--tbh the teambuilding potential didn't really hit our radar at first (mostly we were thinking of how to keep friends and family connected), but have since realized how critical social engagement is for distributed teams, and are building out some special features around this.
Wow! This is an excellent app! Especially for our days, when we can't be together so often( Can't wait to ry it out with my friends. Congrats with the launch!
@yulli_nikitina Thanks so muck Yulli! Love to get your feedback as soon as you do!
Hey @james_simmons is this the best link for the free 3 Month promo? https://www.gameapart.com/launch...
@cpyles17 Yes! It's supposed to pop up automatically for everyone coming from PH. We've had a few isolated reports of it not... but that's the right link, or feel free to message me and we'll make sure you're taken care of!
@mona_erb Thanks Mona! We're working hard to build a platform that enhances your time engaging with friends, family, or colleagues... vs. the more intense games where the time is really all about the game.
I can't begin to tell you how crucial game nights have been for our remote team. Great product and congrats on the launch 👏
So fun!! Will have to recommend for our next team building event & virtual family gathering.
Congrats on the launch! I’ve played with both my family back east and with my employees...both were great fun! I felt like it was game night w my family in our living room, and my staff and I definitely felt more connected after our sessions.
Looking forward to playing more games- this is now a staple in our family entertainment rotation.
@jon_krystafik Awesome Jon -- so cool to hear that we've found our way onto your shelf/toolbelt! Ping me any time with any more feedback you've got!
@greg_haack Hey Greg—we are actually! It’s on the roadmap for later this spring.
Love this for keeping up with social connection during Covid as well as long distance friends and family!
This seems like such a great idea for a game - I can't wait to play against my family and beat all of them!!
@annie_catherine We can't either Annie! Please come back with your feedback as soon as you do... we love to hear from happy families!
