Photos show working prototypes. Production coasters will carry the NexTurn logo in the cupholder, will be thinner than these, and color and texture may vary slightly once they are mass manufactured. We will post new photos of the production version before Batch #1 ships.
The NexTurn Table Set: four light-up coasters and the full app. Yours glows when it is your turn. Press it and you are done.
Included with your set. Connect your coasters and the full app activates. No subscription.
Rounds, phases, timers, and reminders, when they apply.
Type the count, not the score. Totals do themselves.
Skill rating, streaks, rivalries. BGG sync both ways.
Shared by the community, plus what your friends are playing.
We sell in batches. Each batch has its own price and ship window, and your order belongs to the batch that is open when you place it. When a batch closes, on its date or early if it fills, the next one opens.
Founding batch. Ships in the first quarter of 2027. Closes near the end of October, or earlier if it fills.
Opens the day Batch #1 closes. Price and ship window announced when it opens. Closed batches stay on the board, so you can always see what came before.
If you have backed a Kickstarter, this will feel familiar: order now, we build your set, and you get updates along the way. The difference is what you are buying.
The build log. Each new production stage lands here and goes out by email to everyone in the batch, with an update every 2 to 3 weeks in between. Quiet stretches get one too, even if it just says “still on schedule.”
Silicone-topped, table-ready, glowing in every player’s color. One per player, or one shared between two.
Turn order, guided game flows, self-totaling scorepads, and stats. Included with your set: connect your coasters and the full app activates.
A coaster only lights up on its own turn, so a charge covers about 20 hours of gameplay at a table of four. Bigger tables and bluer colors run longer still.
No coaster handy? Anyone joins with a quick code and their phone becomes their turn device.
Add a seat for game nights of five, six, or more. Pairs into your set just like the originals. An add-on, not a starter: the app comes with, and activates through, the Table Set.
Add a coaster · $30Take game night on the road. Holds your Table Set, built for backpacks and game bags. Still in the works. We are aiming to have it ready for Batch #1, and we will announce the price when it is.
Ordering add-ons on their own? US shipping is $7.50 for orders under $75.
The app unlocks free as soon as four coasters are connected, even if you bought them as singles, but the Table Set is the best value. Up to 8 coasters can play at once, and two players can share one coaster, so get the number that is right for your table.
If you have backed a Kickstarter, this will feel familiar: order now, we build your set, and you get updates along the way. But this is a purchase, not a pledge. Full refund anytime until your batch locks for shipping, a standard return policy after delivery, and no platform in the middle.
Not for Batch #1. Manufacturing and shipping costs have been volatile, and we are watching them closely. We want this to cost about the same as one or two board games, for something you use with every game. We have not set pricing for later batches. Each batch gets its own price, announced when it opens. Whatever price you see at checkout is the price you pay. It is locked in, and it covers everything except shipping and tax.
Every batch has its own ship window. Batch #1 ships in the first quarter of 2027. It is a first production run with factory holidays in the middle of that window, so we would rather promise a window we can beat than a date we might miss. We post more specific timing on this page as we have it. If the window moves, everyone in the batch hears it from us first, with the option to cancel for a full refund.
Batch #1 closes near the end of October, or earlier if it fills. As soon as it does, Batch #2 opens, and its price and ship window get announced right here.
Once, at checkout: $99 plus shipping and tax. There is no deposit, no balance, and no second charge later.
No. Open the app and go to Settings. There is a $10 off code for the coasters waiting there for you. Enter it at checkout and the app purchase comes off the price of the set.
Anytime until your batch locks for shipping, about two weeks before it ships (we email you before that happens). Cancel from your order page, or email support@nexturn.app from the address on your order. Full refund, usually back on your card within 5 to 10 business days.
They are photos of working prototypes, the same units we have been playtesting on. A few things will differ on the coasters you receive: the production version carries the NexTurn logo in the center of the cupholder, color and texture may vary slightly once the run is mass manufactured, and the final coasters will be thinner than the ones in these photos. We will post new photos of the production version on this page before Batch #1 ships.
No. The full app is included with your set: download it, connect your coasters, and everything activates. There is no monthly fee. Friends joining your game night play from their phones, no account needed.
The app runs the game, and the coasters show it. The app is what lets us support complex game styles and flows, and it turns the turn-order data the coasters help collect into your stats and game history.
We are committed to supporting the app and to keeping the coasters working through it. However, if a situation arises where we can no longer support it and have to shut down its online services, we will give at least six months' notice (unless the law or events outside our control force a faster stop) and make the code necessary for the coasters to keep working open source (that is, how the app connects to and controls them), so others can build apps for them. If we shut down, we also intend to release our own final version of the app that runs the coasters and the app’s core game features on your phone without an account or a need to connect to our servers.
