a sunday morning playing a game

A game master
at every table.

Box sits beside your board, settles the rules, remembers the state, and keeps the night moving. Not a search bar for the rulebook. A steward for the table.

Box: Longest Road would be a long stretch for you. Stick to the current path. You're two trades from a city.

Box isn't a rules engine.
Box is the friend at the table who knows
the game cold, remembers everything,
and never breaks the rhythm of the night.

that's the whole pitch.

three things Box does

A game master, not a glossary.

Most tabletop apps are a fancy rulebook search. Box is something else. It sits at the table with you, watches the game unfold, and helps the moment your group needs help.

Knows the game cold

Forty one games and counting, from Brass: Birmingham to Catan to Gloomhaven. Edge cases, expansions, official errata. Box has read the rulebook so you don't have to.

no more "wait, can you do that?"

Remembers your table

Who's playing. What round it is. Who built what. Who's bluffing. Box tracks state across the whole session, so it can coach the moment, not just the move.

"Ravi, that's your third raid this round."

Lives where you play

Face up on the table, not in your face. Short bursts. Heads up, not heads down. Box belongs beside the board, not between you and your friends.

a steward, not a screen.

two ways to ask

Have a question? Ask Box.

Voice when you're at the table. Text when it's quiet. About a rule, a strategy, a weird edge case the rulebook didn't cover. Just ask.

“hey box, can I trade with Lina on my turn?”

Yep. On your turn, with another player, as much as you want. The bank works anytime, on anyone's turn.
she's offering 2 wood for 1 ore. fair?
Ore's been scarce in your game and two players already have wood. Push back. Ask for 2 wood and a sheep.
Hold to talk, or type a question

voice at the table. text when it's quiet. box's awake either way.

where Box is meant to live

The best help at the table doesn't pull you away from the moment.
It lets you stay in it longer.

Unboxed was built for the table you're already at. The friends already in the room. The game already in front of you. Heads up, hands free, eyes on each other.
