Welcome to the Tabletop Research Wiki

This is a Wiki for tabletop game research with a particular focus on rules and mechanics.

On Researching Game Mechanics

A founding emphasis for this site is to collect and study the rules for any sort of play capable of being categorized as a tabletop game. Learning more about mechanical process, especially for well established games in this case, provides insight into the sort of play people return to time and time again throughout history. There's a lot we can do with a better understanding of the games we play and how we play them: hopefully some of that can be drawn out here.
