Meet people for your next board game or trading card game session. LurkMap is a social app for players aged 18 and over: it helps you arrange in-person games around a table, rather than play games inside the app. FIND PLAYERS AND PLACES Explore the map of players, game sessions and LurkSpots, places to meet and play. Filter by games and availability. Player locations are displayed approximately. ORGANIZE YOUR GAMES Create a game session, choose a game, time and place, then invite friends. Check available places and keep track of upcoming, ongoing and completed sessions. Creating private sessions and adding private addresses unlock according to your tier or subscription. A private venue's address is visible only to the session organizer and confirmed participants. STAY IN TOUCH Add friends and prepare your meetups in friend, game and challenge conversations. Use LURK to find another player and suggest a challenge. If you enable notifications, receive updates about your meetups and reminders before games. BUILD YOUR PLAYER PROFILE Choose your favorite games and availability, leave feedback after a session and follow your progress through the tiers. Reporting and blocking tools are available from player profiles. OPTIONAL LURKMAP PREMIUM You can use the app without a subscription, within your tier's limits. Monthly and annual LurkMap Premium subscriptions offer the same benefits: no tier quotas on game creation, LURK searches, friends, active sessions or session history, plus private game creation. Your earned tier and progress are preserved. Subscriptions renew automatically. The price and duration are shown before confirmation.
