Board Game Playmat Roundup

Justin Bell - Allplay - Board Game Playmat – Medium Black (3’ x 5’)

When the Allplay mat arrived at my home, I had a game night scheduled the next day, so the mat was thrown into the fray immediately. Between plays of games like Age of Rail: South Africa, the mat looks great on the table and I never imagined that a straight black color scheme would work so well. (The downside of that came later, when my chip crumbs began to spread across my sloppy area of the playmat and revealed my deepest secrets.)

The mat comes in a very handsome carrying case, with a strap that can be used to sling the case over my shoulder when I’m moving it from place to place. A note about the case: the opening is a little tight, so rolling up a new mat tight enough to get back inside the case proved to be a challenge the first couple times I tried to put it away. The upside of this? The Allplay mat laid completely flat even on its first use after sitting on my table even for about an hour. So, the marketing promise that the mat would lie flat came true in my usage.
