We are basically the perfect demographic for this table. We are a ridiculously tech-savvy family of four with shelves and shelves of board games. We love gadgets, we love games, and so as soon as I learned about this table, I knew we had to have it.
On the whole, we are definitely happy with it, although there are a few clear drawbacks....
Assembly. Assembly was very easy: just shove the legs into the slots. No problem. But then, I realized I had done it wrong: one leg has a clip for the electrical cord, and I had put that leg on the wrong side. I then couldn't get the legs back off. They are supposed to be removed easily for both transport and to put the top onto a table if you prefer. With my wife pushing the release buttons and me pulling as hard as I dared, I couldn't get the legs to budge. Incidentally, the table is insanely heavy. It's at least as heavy as an equivalently sized television.
Game Selection. This is a mixed bag at launch. The games seem aimed more for the younger crowd, with games like Hungry Hungry Hippo and Candyland. Scrabble and Trivial Pursuit are here too, but the bulk seem aimed at kids. Also, the games are very 20th Century in focus: Battleship, Operation, Sorry. No cutting-edge games. Not even Catan. Obviously, that may change, but at launch, the options are very weighted towards traditional mainstays. That said, most of the games are slickly designed, easy to use, and exactly as fun as their real-world counterparts. If you like Scrabble in real life, you will like it on this table. There are a few issues with some of the games' design. The worst example of this: Trivial Pursuit. After it gives you the answer to the trivia question, there is a checkbox and an 'x' so you can tell it whether the player answered correctly or not. If you accidentally hit the wrong button--and you will--there is no way to correct the mistake.
Interface. The "dashboard" is clean and easy to use, but I would prefer more flexibility in the design. Currently, the design is 1/3 of the screen is your downloaded games, 1/3 is the store (which is a misnomer, since they currently are free; they are games you haven't downloaded), and 1/3 ads for games that are available. I would prefer an option to expand our downloaded games by eliminating the store, since I chose not to download those games because I didn't want them to clutter my list of games and I don't plan to play them. Also, the dashboard always faces one direction. Although many of the games allow the board to rotate around, the dashboard is in a fixed position.
Feedback. The table has both sound and haptic feedback. The sound effects and haptic are both quite good. The background music is almost universally banal and annoying. They can be turned off in the settings for each game.
Extra Features. The game comes with some non-board games, as well. This included a digital coloring book, which has lots of ways to color a set of outlines images. It even has filters and a QR code that sends the finished image to your phone. Really, it was fantastic. My 4-year old loves it. There are also a word search and a whac-a-mole game, a la the old-time game you find at Chuck E Cheese. I would love to see more of this, like lots of jigsaw puzzles and Crossword puzzles. If that gets more robust, I plan to introduce the table to my mother, who loves that stuff.
Final Thoughts. We bought this table because of the incredible potential it represents. At launch, it has not fully realized its potential. However, potential isn't supposed to be realized instantly: ask me in two years whether this table has been everything we hoped. For now, it displays a very good start. If they can clean up some of the more annoying features in some of the games, add flexibility to the dashboard, and, most importantly, add more games, this will become the coolest thing in our house. In the meantime, we are enjoying ourselves, but it definitely will need to do more in order to justify what we spent for it.

This thing is solid. I was worried it would be delicate but its built like a tank. So much so that we had to put foam around it to protect our 1 year old. It is a bit pricey but if your family likes to sit around and play games it is worth it. They have been putting out new games evey couple of weeks. Only downside is having the wire run across the floor. I wish it came with the battery but I do plan on purchasing that soon. It is also good for one person to relax with a little solitare.

Bought this for my son for Christmas! We have ALL had so much fun with it, especially on Christmas Day. Sat around it and played all day. Brought us older folk some really good memories. Even almost 80 yr old Grammy was laughing and having a great time. We hadn’t had a Christmas like that in a very long time. This takes place of so many board games, so convenient and guess what, you don’t lose any pieces! I know, sometimes you just want the real thing but trust me, this is awesome! It stays on the ottoman at all times. The legs aren’t far away if we have more than two people playing. Such a great idea! Just a few pictures of the MANY games! So nostalgic!

Love the table. The only problem I have is the horrid music in each game and sometimes you have to twist the table around to play a game. The table weighs a ton. Can’t wait until they come out with even more games to play on it. We need Clue !

We bought this for our young adult son who loves board games. As a family, we have always played games, but over the years, they have become old with pieces missing. When my husband & I saw this, we were excited. It has a lot of games for adults like Trivia Pursuit, Monopoly, Sudoku, & lots more! We've only been playing it for one day, but we are VERY impressed. Very well built. Great packaging. Such attention paid to small details. Games load fast. Some even have the option to play the computer, so one person can play alone. You also have the option to play others who have an Infinity Game Table. A couple of minor glitches, but considering this is a new product, that's expected. I'm sure future software updates will address these very minor issues. Great game selection too!! Well worth the purchase!

Exceeds My Expectations

The infinity game table is a really fun device. It came loaded with 30+ games (with more promised in the future) and I can honestly see my family playing with 25 of them easily. We spent the first night putting the device through its paces and I am impressed. The touch screen is responsive, although some games are more responsive than others. The units overall build quality feels sturdy and fairly premium but at the cost of it being heavy (definitely not that portable, but easily movable if you are motivated). The table is a natural finger print magnet and the cloth they give you is no match for all the hands that touch the device during a play session, but I really don’t have any complaints. The device surpasses my expectations at this point. My only disappointment is that some of the big name games like Monopoly and Scrabble are only multiplayer games (local and remote via WIFI). I was really hoping to get into some me vs. the cpu sessions. In fact, on Monopoly, even if you have a 2nd player, I don’t see a way to add a cpu opponent to round out the game, bummer. Hopefully they will add 1 player options to these types of games in the future. I am happy to report the representation of the games I’ve played feels very well designed. I am particularly impressed with how they handle same screen multiplayer games like Scrabble, Trivial Pursuit and a few other word games. Easy to navigate and pick up without reading to many instructions. Card sharing, piece movement on the game board and overall controls are well thought out. Overall, the biggest issue with the unit is the lack of information about what’s next with games beyond a coming soon banner, the mystery built in USB ports and mysterious battery pack slot with no battery. It feels like the table has a few more goodies up its sleeve, but no clue when I can expect any of them <shrug>?.
Bottomline: Very fun device, a glorified tablet with legs that doesn’t reinvent the wheel but erases the line between physical board games pieces and easy touch screen action that draws you in. Two Thumbs Way Up For Me!

Compact and easy to use. It has multiple games, favorite ones and newer ones. There are a lot of free games to download and the others that require a purchase, are not that expensive. No more missing pieces and towers of games. Graphics are great.

The table is awesome. My kids play so much better with each other and we even realized how perfect this table was for grandparents. My parents spent hours over Christmas playing with our kids and so far it has brought us a lot more family time together. There are plenty of ways it could be upgraded and it could use a few more games, but it's incredibly easy to use, you can use it with or without the legs (we often find it's better to use off the legs at the family table) and way sturdier than an Ipad or most tablets as you'd expect. I wasn't sure what to expect, but this has exceeded my expectations by quite a bit and since we've had it the kids have spent more time playing with each other and less time on YouTube, Roblox, etc.

Fun game with a few glitches

Absolutely love our game table!! Tons of fun games for free and some paid games, with more being released all the time. We play with it daily. Totally worth the price.
The only issues we have had are a couple of the games lag and are glitchy. We love playing the word search game but i think they need to update the dictionary for it and if they are going to dock points for spelling a word that you already have used, then they should make it so you can scroll through the list of words on your notepad so you can see which ones you have spelled already. And everytime you spell the word "tide" the whole game freezes up and kind of freaks out.
Other than that and some other small little issues in some of the games, this thing is amazing and super fun for the whole family
