Tabletop Kobold: Discover the World of Board Games

We carefully select board games and TTRPGs: well-known favorites and lesser-known gems that add something special. We find it important that you can see at a glance what a game entails, how it plays and whether it suits you. This makes choosing easier and playing more fun.

Mission

Helping you discover what really suits you

Tabletop Kobold makes it easier to find and understand good games. Through careful selection and clear explanations, we help players discover what really suits them — from strategic board games to immersive role-playing games.

Vision

Choosing games becomes easier when you know what you're getting

We want players to understand at a glance what a game is and whether it suits them. That’s why we explain games clearly and only choose titles that really add something — whether they’re familiar favorites or lesser-known gems.

Strong in what it wants to be

Whether it's strategy, cooperation, speed or storytelling: the game has to do what it wants to do well. Every game in our collection is firmly in its genre and delivers quality.

Interesting for repeated play

Most of the games in our range invite you to play more often. Not always through complexity, but through variation, choices or interaction that produce something new when played repeatedly.

Clear in explanation and playing style

A game should be easy to understand in terms of design, target group and dynamics. Not necessarily simple, but clear. We choose titles that you can quickly understand whether they suit you — and we explain that too.

Original or refined

We only include games that bring something: an original twist, a creative form or a well-executed well-known formula.

Supported by players and experts

Our selection combines our own assessment with insights from player communities and trusted sources, building a collection that goes beyond personal preference.

Our Team

At Tabletop Kobold, I, Maartje Kok, personally guarantee the selection and care that you receive with every order. As the founder and sole force behind the store, I carefully select every game in the assortment. My choices are based on my own experience, insights from players and reliable sources.

What always struck me: how hard it is to really understand what a game is all about based on a box or standard description. That's why my goal is not only to offer games that are good, but also to clearly show what you can expect — so that choosing becomes easier and playing more fun.

Whether you enjoy strategic challenges or are looking for something instantly accessible, I make sure that every game in the collection is carefully chosen and well explained.

The advantage of a sole proprietorship? You know exactly who is behind it — and that every order is handled with care.

Future Plans

At Tabletop Kobold, we are building something lasting, step by step. The passion for strong games continues to grow — and so does the ambition to better showcase what each game has to offer. Here’s what we’re working towards:

  • More games, with the same care
    We continue to expand our offering with carefully selected games, including exclusive titles and unique projects that match our vision.

  • Collaborations with new makers
    We want to work more closely with emerging publishers and Kickstarter projects that bring something special to the gaming world, and also bring innovative titles to the attention that are not yet available everywhere.

  • Smarter recommendations
    We’re working on ways to help you make even better choices, such as recommendations based on play style, preferences, and experience level — without you having to figure everything out yourself.

  • Service that grows with you
    As Tabletop Kobold grows, so does the service. Think faster delivery, better availability and more convenience for questions or contact.
