Shelfmates
Coming soon · iOS & Android

Pick tonight's board game together.

Shelfmates pools your friend group's shelves into one list, so game night starts with playing instead of arguing about what to play.

Free, no ads. If it saves your game night, there's a tip jar inside.

Everything the group needs, nothing it doesn't.

Built for one friend group at a time. No feeds, no followers, no ads.

Your shelf, in seconds

Search BoardGameGeek's catalog and add what you own. Player counts, play time and weight come along for free.

One group shelf

Everyone's games merged into a single list that shows who owns each copy, so you know whose bag to check.

Filter, then pick

Set how many are coming, how long you have and how heavy you want it. Tap once and let Shelfmates choose.

Plan game night

Propose a date, collect RSVPs and vote on a shortlist, all in the same place as the shelf.

Invite with a code

Start a group and share an eight character invite code. No friend requests, no public profiles.

Free, with a tip jar

Every feature is free for everyone. A tip unlocks nothing except a thank you badge.

How a game night goes

Four steps from "who's in?" to the first turn.

Make a group

Sign in with Apple or Google, name your group and send the invite code to your friends.

Add your games

Each person searches and adds what's on their own shelf. Takes a few minutes the first time.

Set the night

Propose a date. Everyone RSVPs so you know the player count before you pick.

Pick and play

Filter by players, time and weight, then take the random pick or vote on a shortlist.

No ads, everNo trackers, no ad SDKs, no consent pop-ups.
