#OurStory
A Home for Indie Tabletop Game DesignersRemember the thrill of your first game idea? That's the exact feeling that the founder of Trovve was trying to capture when he first thought of creating this platform. This story started in 2023, when he set off on his game design journey. After trying to figure out and balance the point system for his game for far too long, he went searching for a community – a space to connect, learn, and grow alongside fellow indie designers. But his search revealed a fragmented landscape.
He found niche groups hidden away in sprawling platforms, and existing communities that felt, frankly, a bit dated. This left him wondering:"Why isn't there a dedicated, modern space specifically built for indie game designers like me?"
So he decided to build it. His first step was gathering a small, dedicated team—a powerhouse group ready to turn this vision into reality. And on April 24th 2025, after weeks of tireless planning and countless late nights fueled by an ungodly amount of coffee, Trovve was born!
#OurMission - All About YOU
In today's digital landscape, connecting with other tabletop game designers might seem easy. But at Trovve, we felt something crucial was missing: a genuine focus on you, the designer, not just the games you create.
While you're absolutely welcome to showcase your incredible creations and discuss your projects, Trovve's heart beats for your personal design journey.
We encourage conversations that delve deep into your process, the frustrating challenges, the exhilarating breakthroughs, and the evolution of you as a game designer.
And when we say "indie," we truly mean it. Trovve is a sanctuary for the independent spirit. You won't find major publishers or their behemoth titles here – and that's by design. This is your dedicated space to thrive, connect, and grow.
