From Screentop.gg, access your games by selecting your avatar in the upper-right corner.
Create a new game by selecting Create.
When you select an existing game, you can choose:
- Edit to define a template that sets the available components, behaviors and start state for when you choose to Play a game.
- Play to create a new instance of the game (a “Room”) that can be shared with other players. Changes made while playing the game do not affect the template at all.
In Edit mode, these are the most common items that you’ll need to update in the left page:
- Components: Add and define the elements of your game, including boards, cards, dice, and tokens. See Adding Components 🎲.
- Assets: Upload image files that can be used to set the appearance of components. See Adding Assets & Variants 🖼️.
- Seats: Add seats to increase the maximum number of players and/or add a seat in an Admin role.
After selecting any of the options above, select the + button to add a new item.
Use the breadcrumbs at the top of the left pane to navigate back to a previous page:
Components are the templates for the individual objects that players will manipulate in your game. Once you’ve defined a component, you can add one or more instances of that component to the game; these are called Objects in Screentop. Select the Treasure Chest icon in the upper-right corner to add objects to your playing surface.
