Discovery

Find your kind of game night. Not someone else's.

Most apps optimize for engagement. AleaMeep optimizes for the right game at the right table on the right night. Less "keep scrolling." More "text me when you get here."

A Discover swipe card with cover image, host badge, and 'why this matches you' chips

The swiper, but useful

Discover gives you nearby events one at a time, ranked by your interests. Tap the heart to save, the X to skip. When you swipe through tonight's options in 90 seconds, you're not doomscrolling — you're triaging.

Game-based ranking that listens

Add the games you play to your profile. Events featuring those games get pushed to the top. Your favorite obscure euro gets the same surfacing as the obvious crowd-pleasers.

Search that respects your taste

Filter by date, distance, game type, store, host. Sort by relevance, time, or capacity. Save your favorite filter combo. Your search remembers you.

Featured stores nearby

Local game stores in your area show up on the home screen so you know where the scenes are. Tap into a store to see its full event calendar, posts, and amenities.

Activity from people you follow

A quiet feed at the bottom of home: connections RSVP'd to events, badges earned, plays logged. No ads, no recommendations, no infinite scroll. Just what your people are up to.

Saved + planned

Everything you've RSVP'd to or hearted lives in the Plans tab. Month-view calendar, agenda view, personal notes you can leave on any event. Reminders so you don't forget.

How the ranking actually works

No black box. Here are the signals that move an event up or down in your feed.

The games on your profile

Events tagged with games you've added get a meaningful ranking boost.

Distance from you

Closer is better, but a great match an hour away beats a meh one across the street.

Recency

Events happening soon rank higher than ones three weeks out.

Hosts you've connected with or played with

If you've played with someone before, their events get a small bump.

Game store hosting

Events at verified local game stores get a small ranking lift because they're tied to a physical place.

Sponsored and boosted events

A small minority of slots are explicitly labeled 'Sponsored' or 'Boosted.' You always know when something's promoted.

A real-world walkthrough

You're new to your area

Open AleaMeep, tap Discover. Swipe through the next 10 events nearby — even if you don't know any of these people, you'll have three saved by the end of the session. Heart the ones that match what you want to play.

You want to play tonight

Tap Search, filter to 'starts in next 4 hours.' You see exactly what's open and where. One tap to RSVP.

You're picky

Add 'Brass: Birmingham' and 'Twilight Imperium' to your games. Now those events float to the top of every Discover session. Pure euros + heavy 18xx, signal locked in.

You're new to the hobby

Search for 'newcomer-friendly' events. Find ones flagged by hosts as teaching available. Show up without having to read three pages of rules first.
