Today, Evernever Games brings board games virtual with their newest VR game, Neverboard, available now free on the Oculus Quest Store.
“What makes Neverboard so much fun is that everything is designed around hanging out together but with the magic of VR,” shared creator, Jasmine Bulin. “Winning is definitely fun, but only just slightly more than actually being with friends. It channels a lot of our feelings about getting together and playing board games over lunch or nostalgia over family game night. Now anyone can play together in a really comfortable and approachable way, even when people are apart.”
Neverboard combines the classic social fun of board games with the immersion of virtual reality. Up to 4 friends can quick join together to pick from a growing list of easy to learn, hard to master games. In addition to turn-based social games, Neverboard also includes extras associated with game night, like virtual popcorn and pizzas, packing a lot of enjoyment into a single room. With an extensive roadmap, Evernever Games promises regular updates with original and licensed games, features, and unique content ensuring players will never be bored.
Neverboard launches with a full version of Crazy 8s for free plus additional games for sale. What makes inviting friends so enticing is that each game is a one time purchase, only requiring players who host a game to own it for the whole table to play. For a limited time, the game will offer a bundle at launch for $9.99 (USD) with 3 original games. Players can use in-game currency to practice any game, no purchase required, or enjoy the revolving menu of concessions with 100 free coins available daily.
Beyond being an easy space to join friends over casual games, Neverboard does all the work of managing the rules, counting points, dealing cards, announcing turns, and more. By limiting players to make moves only allowed in the game rules, games move more smoothly and are easier for players to jump into. Rather than set up and clean up, players can focus on strategy and conversation.
