About The Last Gameboard, Inc.
In 2018, avid tabletop gamer Shail Mehta met with gaming hardware guru Rob Wyatt to vent over isolating technology trends and sub-standard gaming experiences. Out of that meeting, three fundamental, core values were born: 1) a commitment to building player and creator community 2) an obsession with great User Experience (UX) and 3) a fanatical focus on data security. It is through these lenses that Gameboard-1 was forged - the worldʼs first "all you can play" tabletop gaming platform that blends physical, digital, private screen and augmented reality to modernize your social gameplay.
