Gamer Uncle

A simple companion app for smoother board game nights

What it does

Board game nights are fun, but the small logistics often slow things down. Who goes first? Who keeps score? Where are the dice? How do we split teams? I built Gamer Uncle as a small companion app that keeps these tools in one place. It includes a turn picker spinner, dice roller, team randomizer, game timer, score tracking, and rule clarification chat. It’s a free indie side project and I’d love feedback from fellow board gamers.

    Play abstract strategy board games online with friends or against botsOct 2025 · abstractboardgames.com · ▲180

    Thought I would post in celebration of 1 year of my website being online. I've been working on it on and off and currently the website allows users to play Hex, Tumbleweed, Amazons, and Connect 6 against friends or against practice bots. I've been a long time player of some of these games and I felt for a long time that the world could use a few more popular abstract strategy games compared to Chess or Go. If you try it, let me know what you think. I'm always looking for new games or new features to add :)

    I wanted to learn more about RAG implementations, so I built something to solve the constant digging through manuals whenever we play a game. It's fairly simplistic, but actually has worked pretty well for some of these conflicts. Everythings Open Source on GitHub if you're curious (or have ideas), and I'd love to hear feedback from fellow boardgamers!
