Shared Board Game Timer Reviews and details

Social recommendations and mentions

• What to do about slow players

  If you're still reading, then I feel OK to plug the app I made that can do all of the above. It is called the Shared Game Timer and the URL is https://sharedgametimer.com. Source: over 1 year ago

• Does anyone know where I can get a resetting timer for a games night?

  The Shared Game Timer (https://sharedgametimer.com/) has a Sandtimer mode. But it does take 3 presses to restart the timer (Stop, Reset, Start), but that is something I'd be willing to change if I knew people wanted a mode where a single press does all 3 things. Let me know if you want that feature. Source: about 2 years ago

• Turn timer?

  You are welcome to try out the (free) timer I created, https://sharedgametimer.com. Source: about 2 years ago

• Web App/API to manage time/turn order

  Sounds like the Shared Game Timer. (https://sharedgametimer.com) I'm the author of that. I don't have a Web API for controlling it (yet) but I do have a Bluetooth API that allows anyone with some coding skills to hook up devices (like lights, buttons, etc) to it. Source: about 2 years ago

• What are some of the things that have enhanced your board gaming experience?

  It's free for anyone to use, in case you want to give it a go. https://sharedgametimer.com. Source: over 2 years ago

• Board Game Device that keeps track of time?

  Check this out https://sharedgametimer.com. Source: over 2 years ago

• Is it normal for games to last 10+ hours?

  Instead of actually banking time, try one of the turn timer apps that alerts the person when it is their turn, and gives them a warning after 3 minutes have passed. https://sharedgametimer.com/ may be able to do it, but otherwise I am sure there is some app that will. Source: over 2 years ago

• Turn duration timer

  Is there a way to call HTTP methods from TTS? I've been thinking about making a TTS interface for the Shared Game Timer (https://sharedgametimer.com). Source: over 2 years ago

• Design philosophy behind SUPER DARK - a new social deduction board game about the impact of dark money in elections!

  Can I make a shameless plug? I think you'd quite like the 'Sandtimer' mode of the Shared Game Timer. It has a few standout features that your normal phone timer doesn't. Source: over 2 years ago

• Steam Workshop - Classic / Additive timer

  In fact, I coded my own game timer (https://sharedgametimer.com) which is aimed at both in-person and online gaming. I've got a Tabletopia plug in, but no TTS plug in. Source: over 2 years ago

• Chest timers/timer apps for 4 players. FFA + 2v2

  My Shared Game Timer (https://sharedgametimer.com) synchronizes over any number of physical devices so that would take care of your second use case. Source: over 2 years ago

• Indispensable board game apps?

  When I play games on Tabletopia or Tabletop Simulator, I use the Shared Game Timer (http://sharedgametimer.com/) to keep track of tokens like money, VP etc. I find it a lot easier to do in the app than using the mouse, and everyone can see who has what, and you get a log so you can see who has done what and on which turn.

• Speeding up round on Table Top Simulator

  Alternatively, there's a browser/phone app that you can use. Here. Source: almost 3 years ago

• An improved way to combat analysis-paralysis (link in comments)

  If my site is lacking some sophisticated feature that you need, I encourage you to check out https://sharedgametimer.com (built by u/Parakoos), which is more involved and might cover your needs. Source: almost 3 years ago

• A way to combat analysis-paralysis

  OK, great! So, the link to my app is https://sharedgametimer.com/ . I've spent 1415 hours on it, or 70% of a year's fulltime work! 🤪Good thing I'm unemployed! Source: almost 3 years ago

• Help: friend's turns take way too long

  So here is my suggestion. Use the https://sharedgametimer.com and use the 'No Timer' mode. That hides all the clocks and timers, so he won't feel like his slowness is 'on display'. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Four person Timer/clock

  I just stumbled across this: https://sharedgametimer.com. Source: about 3 years ago
