- 10. 弌ommon Problems: Lack of appropriate business model. New interface for each game, often weird. Usability issues. Made by enthusiasts without all necessary skills. Do not represent the whole value chain for the market. boiteajeux.net 390 000 visits per month boardgamearena.com 890 000 visits per month 500 000+ owners on Steam. Cost: $13.

- 11. Beautifully done, but 90% do not succeed even when based on popular board game titles. Reasons App stores are oversaturated. Production costs 50K+ and takes 5-6 months. AI is hard to implement for most modern board games. Not enough people in one game for multiplayer. Users need to learn new interface for each game. Made by programmers for programmers: clunky, ugly, and complicated. Standalone APPs Tools for Game Designers COMPETITION vassalengine.org
- 12. Tabletopia was created in early 2014, when Tim Bokarev invited his friends and partners Artem Zinoviev and Dmitry Sergeev to take part in creating a digital platform for board games. These co-founders already had vast experience in the video and board games industry. Their other projects include Promo Interactive, an internet advertising agency, Playtox, a popular mobile MMORPG, Igrology, a game studio, and tesera.ru, the main Russian-speaking board gaming portal. By Spring 2014, Artem, Dmitry and Tim created Tabletopia Inc. USA and started development.
