Getting Started

Turnbase is an end-to-end system for creating digital board games that you can immediately start playing.

Quick summary:

• online, multiplayer gameplay
• rules are enforced (using a domain specific language (DSL))
• customize the look and feel of your game using WYSIWYG editors
• modular: mix and match tokensets and boards across different games
• bonus: videochat while you play (new)

To create a game, you just need to do 3 things:

1. Create (or find a public) tokenset
2. Create (or find a public) board
3. Write down the rules using a custom DSL for specifying game logic
