Playsum is a safe and inclusive community platform and game store to find friends who play the same games you do! You can find friends, chat with your friends, build or join communities, and buy games. Our mission is to make social gaming safe and easy for everyone - we’re building an inclusive and positive platform, that is gate-keeping free!

Yes! We believe access to play is important. The core features of Playsum will always be free. However, we will introduce extra perks and features that are paid and give you great value while also not restricting non-paid members' ability to find gaming buddies. This will support the development of Playsum and our mission to make social gaming safe and easy for everyone :)

Yes, we're an official retailer; all games come directly from publishers and developers. This means that you’re always getting authentic products, and your purchases directly support the creators of the games. We pride ourselves on our strong partnerships with renowned publishers like Atari, Quantic Dreams, Kepler Interactive, and Frontier Developments. We’re dedicated to providing a safe, reliable, and enjoyable shopping experience for all gamers!

We sell Steam keys for a wide range of games, from indie titles to AAA blockbusters, covering every genre. Currently, we don’t offer console games. However, we plan to work with official suppliers to bring console games to Playsum in the future!

At launch the core features will be the game and platform library,member discovery based on shared games, 1:1 chat. We have a lot of plans for other core features and quality of life features. If you have any suggestions please feel free to drop us a message at feedback@playsum.live

Nope! Single player games are still more fun when you have friends to talk with them about. Even if you don’t play games with others, it’s still enjoyable to have a group of people who understand when you go on a tangent about turnip prices going down or the crew ejecting you from the ship.

We’ll have just about any video game you can think of and especially the most popular tabletop games at launch. We’ll be continuously adding more and taking member requests to add new ones. Don’t worry, your favorite games will be included!

On launch you'll be able to add 15, we'll be expanding the number to unlimited shortly after launch. We know us gamers have large game libraries :p

Our co-founders are Trust & Safety executives with nearly 20 years combined experience. We are passionate about online safety and building kind and positive communities. We’ll be incorporating innovative internal safety tools and in-app moderation features for members to tailor what they don’t want to see. Unlike platforms who let reports go into a black void, we’ll also address concerns and communicate on what’s happening with your reports.

Just some of the safety features we’ll employ:

-Age restrictions.
-Detections to prevent sexual and romantic advances.
-Educational messaging to change behavior.
-Positive reinforcement to reward positive behavior.
-And more.

We’ll be rolling out the full arsenal.

We strongly believe a gamer is anyone that likes playing video games or tabletop games. You don’t need to be skilled, you don’t need to play all the time, you don’t need to be competitive, or use certain equipment. If you enjoy playing games, you’re a gamer! Congratulations!

Gaming is global 🌎 and so is Playsum! At first, the app will only be available in English but anyone can use it as long as they don’t mind the interface being in English. We'll be translating it to other languages soon.

Yes! You can find t-shirts, hats, notebooks, mugs, and more on the Playsum Merch Store.
