The Game Kitchen invites us around to play big name board games in VR, in All On Board!
VR developer The Game Kitchen just launched a board game night with a difference. VR board game platform All On Board! Is available now on Meta Quest and Steam VR, bringing friends together to play a range of popular tabletop adventures. Roll, the dice on Binding of Isaac, conquer a new world on Terraforming Mars, or simply escape The Hunger with friends.
Going a whole lot further than the likes of snakes and ladders, this new platform brings board game enthusiasts, friends, and family to the table from across the Internet to an immersive encounter. Surrounded by a realistic backdrop, games are set out and played in an intuitive manner to encourage memorable moments and intuitive interactions that bring players together. Making it even easier to bring the crew together, players can choose to enjoy mixed reality mode, dropping the virtual board on your real table and play a game with your friends’ avatars fully integrated in your living room. Frenimies joining the action don’t even need another copy of each board game. Like real life, buy a board game form the All on Board! Library once and host game night for everyone else.
