Helping RPG players find games, game masters find players, and stores fill seats - one connected place instead of a dozen scattered group chats.

Who I help

My story

How this started

I discovered D&D at 12-13 and loved it, but could only get a handful of games in - I could never reliably find people to play with.

Years later, after going back to college in my 30s, I tried to get back into D&D as an adult and hit the exact same problem again. There was no central hub - games were fragmented across a dozen different sites and social media apps, and I was honestly surprised no one had built one yet.

I ran an online game myself for two years, and it was easier to fill an online table than an in-person one - I could draw players from across the entire US instead of just my local area. That was direct, lived proof that the bottleneck was never interest. It was discovery.

Legendary DMs and the first attempt

In 2020, during COVID, I saw paid game masters emerging as a real trend and started the "Legendary DMs" Facebook group, growing it to about 1,700 members. I built a site that year and started a game scheduler, but I was doing it solo alongside a lot else going on in life, and I dropped the project.

Picking it back up

Recently I revisited that old YouTube channel and noticed some videos had racked up thousands of views - real, if delayed, evidence the audience interest had been there all along. Combined with having grown a lot as a software engineer since 2020, and building being genuinely easier now with today's tooling, that's what pushed me to pick the idea back up.

I posted articles first and got immediate traffic, which is what actually started this build for real - I started building the app itself in June 2026.

I'm also building a character builder now, so new players can build a character without having to read through numerous rulebooks first - it already has real signups from players waiting on it.

What I believe

  • Tabletop games are one of the last real ways to socialize face-to-face in a world that keeps getting more divided and more isolated.
  • The barrier was never interest - it was that finding the right table, GM, or store has always been scattered across a dozen disconnected group chats and forum posts.

Proof
