Welcome to the Table

Shake Battle Roll is more than just a website — it’s a platform for board gamers, venues, and communities. Whether you’re a café owner hosting game nights, a club organiser running tournaments, or a player looking for your next session, everything you need to find, join, and enjoy board games is here.

We built Shake Battle Roll because finding people to play with shouldn’t be harder than learning the rules of the game. Here’s how it all works.

At the heart of Shake Battle Roll are venues — the places where board games come to life. A venue could be:

  • A board game café or shop.

  • A community hall or student union.

  • A club that meets regularly.

  • Even someone’s living room for a private game night.

Each venue belongs to an organisation. Organisations can manage multiple venues (like a chain of cafés or a national gaming society), while smaller groups can just run one.

Venue profiles include:

  • Location, opening hours, and contact info.

  • Upcoming events being hosted.

  • Photos and description of the space.

  • Followers — so players can stay updated.

Every venue can create events. These range from casual meetups to structured tournaments.

Event pages include:

  • The games being played.

  • Time, date, and location.

  • Who’s hosting and attending.

  • RSVP button to save your spot.

Some events are public (anyone can join), while others are invite-only (great for private groups or home sessions).

hake Battle Roll is integrated with the BoardGameGeek (BGG) database — the world’s biggest resource for board games. This means:

  • Every game has rich descriptions, images, and ratings.

  • Events can be tagged with the exact games being played.

  • You can browse popular games, trending titles, and classics.

Whether you’re curious about the complexity of Twilight Imperium or just want to see what party games are hot this season, Shake Battle Roll has the info built in.

Shake Battle Roll isn’t only about venues — it’s about the players.

Every player gets their own profile where they can:

  • Track the games they’ve played.

  • RSVP to events.

  • Follow venues and organisations.

  • Earn badges and seasonal rewards.

The platform is designed to feel like a community hub. You don’t just join an event — you build connections.

To keep things simple and secure, Shake Battle Roll uses role-based access:

  • End Users (Players): Browse, join, and host events.

  • Venue Admins: Manage their own venue page, create events, message followers.

  • Organisation Admins: Oversee multiple venues if they’re part of a chain.

  • Super Admins: Keep the platform safe and running smoothly.

This means everyone sees only the tools they need, and no more.

We know not every event is public. Some players want to keep game nights invite-only. Venues can mark events as:

  • Public — visible to everyone.

  • Private — address hidden until RSVP.

  • Invite-Only — only those invited can see details.

This makes Shake Battle Roll flexible enough for both open community events and private home games.

  • Discover: Find events and venues near you.

  • Connect: Meet players who share your interests.

  • Play: Explore new games or enjoy your favourites.

  • Grow: Support local venues, clubs, and communities.

It’s the easiest way to keep your board gaming hobby organised, social, and exciting.

Joining Shake Battle Roll is free. Create your account today, follow a venue, and find your next game night.
