User:Masem/Digital tabletop game

A digital tabletop game is a video game that recreates or uses elements of physical tabletop games, including board games, card games. Digital tabletop games facilitate online play between multiple players, local play against artificial intelligence-driven computer opponents, automation of game rules and management, incorporation of a physics engine to simulate tabletop elements, and rendered graphics and animations.
