La Cuenta: an official digital score sheet inside Meeplay
Real example

La Cuenta: an official digital score sheet inside Meeplay

Meeplay can integrate digital tools linked to specific games, complementing the physical table experience with scoring tools, helpers or experiences developed together with the publisher. It is a collaboration, agreed case by case.

  • The official La Cuenta score sheet by 2Tomatoes, built into Meeplay: add tapas and modifiers and work out how much money each person has left, with no pencil and paper.
  • It extends the physical game without replacing it, leaving a useful tool attached to the title itself.
  • Thanks to 2Tomatoes for trusting Meeplay to digitise this part of their players' experience.

Tournaments and circuits

Official tournaments and sponsored circuits

  • Build a nationwide circuit with local qualifiers hosted by stores: organizers apply to host a venue and you approve who takes part.
  • Pick the format you need: Swiss, single or double elimination, or groups plus a final bracket.
  • Standings, automatic tie-breakers (Buchholz, head-to-head) and ELO computed by the platform, with no spreadsheets.
  • Every tournament carries your brand's look and rules, perfect for publisher-sponsored championships.

Events and physical presence

Connect your games with events and physical spaces

Meeplay can connect a publisher's presence at conventions, festivals, stores and other gaming spaces with the community's digital experience.

  • Run a best game award at your event or trade fair, with the categories and nominees you choose.
  • People vote the way you want: single vote, by rating or by emoji, with the experience tailored to your audience.
  • Optional validation by geolocation, phone or a physical kiosk at the stand to keep votes genuine.
  • Follow the live results and hand out a reusable winner badge for the awarded game's communication.
  • Featured games on the map: at supported events, interactive maps help people see which titles each publisher is presenting and which ones are entered in votes, awards or other activations.
  • That makes the path clear for visitors: publisher, game, stand and activity, before and during the visit.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions for publishers

What does Meeplay offer a board game publisher?

Meeplay connects your games with a passionate community that logs plays, organizes events and shares their collections. You can announce launches, reach players segmented by taste, and measure the real impact of your titles based on logged plays, ratings and collectors.

What data can I learn about my games?

You get aggregated, anonymous metrics: number of logged plays, community ratings, how many people own your games or have them on their wishlist, and how they evolve over time. It is useful information to understand the real reception of each title.

How do I promote a launch?

You can feature a game on the home and in discovery sections, organize launch events as Meeplays, and communicate news to the community. Check the specific options in the advertising section.

Are my games already on Meeplay?

Very likely: the catalog draws from a large board game database. If a title is missing or you want to complete the official entry for your games, write to us and we will review it with you.

Can I run a circuit with several stores as venues?

Yes. You create the circuit with local qualifiers and stores apply to host a venue; you approve who joins, and every tournament keeps your brand's look and rules.

How do you prevent duplicate votes in the audience awards?

You can enable optional validation by geolocation, phone or a physical kiosk at the stand, on top of choosing single, rating-based or emoji voting.

Can I promote a game inside Meeplay?

Yes. Meeplay offers ways to increase the visibility of specific titles within the platform and combine that visibility with campaigns or activations.

Can Meeplay create digital tools for a game?

Meeplay can develop or integrate selected digital experiences in collaboration with publishers. The official La Cuenta score sheet is one example.

What is the La Cuenta digital score sheet?

It is an official scoring tool integrated into Meeplay for La Cuenta by 2Tomatoes, allowing players to keep score directly in the app.

Can my games be activated at physical events?

Yes. Depending on the event and campaign, Meeplay can connect titles with demos, activities, giveaways, votes, awards and other experiences.

Does Meeplay share players' personal data with publishers?
