RoleplayLab
Google Meet add-on
Tabletop RPGs inside Google Meet
RoleplayLab adds a shared stage to your Meet call: scenes with art and music, character roles, Story Cards, 3D dice and shared documents, right beside the video. 100% Free!
Play with a Link
Not on Google Meet? Run the same stage in any browser. Make a link, send it to your players, and talk over whatever voice chat your group already uses. No install and no account.
- Get a Game Link. Each link is a new game. Save it: it's the way back to your game.
- Send it to your table. Anyone with the link can join.
- Play. Everyone opens the link, types a name and picks a role.

About
RoleplayLab was started by me, Scott, during the COVID pandemic. I wanted to game with distant friends in an easy way. I tried the common VTT systems and found they didn't support "theatre of the mind" quite like I'd hoped. Fast forward a few years, and it's finally solid enough to share.
RoleplayLab is a passion project. It doesn't make a dime, so I hope you'll forgive the bugs you find, and please let me know about them!
If you run into any trouble, visit the support page. Thanks for checking it out!
What it collects: in Meet, your Google account name and email and the meeting code, so everyone in the call joins the same table; with a game link, only the name you type. The details are in the privacy policy.
