How a table works

+
    +
  • Open a table and you get a four-letter code and a link. Send it to a friend; they sit down and you begin.
    • +
  • No one home? Every game seats the house: an automaton, a housecarl, a rival wizard. Play now, alone.
    • +
  • Nothing to sign up for. Your browser holds your seat. Close the tab and come back; the game is where you left it.
    • +
  • Watchers welcome. Anyone with the link can sit in the Peanut Gallery and, if the host allows, join the table talk.
    • +
  • Something went wrong? Every table has a report button that reaches the keeper, pinned to the exact moment.
    • +
+
+
+

The keeper

+
+ Eric Wagoner +
+

I am Eric, and I keep these tables from Athens, Georgia. These are games I have loved at a real table, rebuilt so friends can play them from wherever they are, with the door left open for anyone who wanders in.

+

Send word to eric@ericwagoner.com, @kestrelsnest.social on Bluesky, or @eric@toots.kestrelsnest.social on Mastodon. I roost at blog.kestrelsnest.social.

+
+
+

The hosting

+

The games are free and will stay free. They run on small servers that cost a few dollars a month; anyone who wants to chip in toward the hosting can at ko-fi.com/kestrelsnest. Nothing is unlocked by it and nothing is withheld without it.

+
+
+ +
+

Wiz-War is Tom Jolly's design; the rights rest with Steve Jackson Games. Waving Hands is Richard Bartle's. Nothing here is official or endorsed by Steve Jackson Games or Richard Bartle. Hnefatafl belongs to everyone; it is a thousand years old.
