Your Collection

Your Collection is your personal library inside Tabletop Match: every game you've marked in any way, plus the tools for organizing it, valuing it, and sharing it with other people.

The four statuses

Every game can carry any combination of four statuses at once. They're not mutually exclusive: a game can be all four if that's true for you:

  • Own: you have a physical (or digital) copy.

  • Want to Play: you haven't played it, but you'd like to.

  • Wishlist: you'd like to own it.

  • For Trade: you own it and would consider trading or selling it.

Toggle any of these with one click, no confirmation needed, from three places:

  1. Your Collection page: click a status pill directly on a game's card.

  2. All Games: the same pills show up on every result card while you browse the catalog.

  3. A game's own page: under "Your status & rating."

Mark a game Own and two extra fields show up just for that game: which edition you have and whether you own any expansions, plus an optional "What's it worth?" field (a number and a currency) if you want it counted toward your collection's value estimate.

Adding a game

Click "+ Add a game" on the Collection page to open a search modal. Search for the game, and set any of the four statuses right from the results: no need to leave the modal. If the game really isn't in the catalog yet, there's a "suggest it be added" link in that same modal (see "Suggesting a new game for the catalog").

Organizing your collection

  • Search, sort, and filter: the same tools as All Games, filtering by complexity, player count, genre, or mechanics, and sorting by things like recently added, your own rating, or shortest playtime.

  • Custom lists: click "+ New list" to build your own groupings ("Two-player favorites," "Bring to game night," whatever makes sense to you). Each list can be shared via a link, or edited and deleted later.

  • Collection value estimate: a running total of what your collection is worth, grouped by currency, based only on the games where you've filled in a value.

Importing, exporting, and sharing

Under the "More" menu on the Collection page:

  • Import from BoardGameGeek: upload a BGG collection export (CSV) and Tabletop Match matches it against the catalog, carrying over status and rating for anything it recognizes. You get a preview of what matched and what didn't before you confirm.

  • Export .csv: download your whole collection as a spreadsheet.

  • Print shelf list: a print-friendly view of your collection.

  • Share wishlist / Share collection: generates a link anyone can view, no account needed. Handy for sending to someone who wants to know what to get you, or what you have available.

Removing a game

Click Remove on any game's card to clear every status, your rating, and any notes for that game. You'll be asked to confirm first: this can't be undone.
