Vorabspielen is an online community focused on discovering, testing, and reviewing board games. It helps promising games gain attention by inviting members to try selected titles and share their impressions. The site features games available through prize draws, with details such as player counts, playing times, recommended ages, and community ratings. Members can participate by writing a game impression for a chance to win, and can browse upcoming game previews to see what will be featured next.

The platform also publishes member-written reviews, covering family games, party experiences, and familiar titles, among other types of play. Reviewers can earn Coins for publishing a review, with additional Coins available when they successfully link to reviews posted on other sites. Vorabspielen provides guidance on how the community works, along with FAQs, newsletter subscriptions, and support and contact services. Its newsletter shares updates about new games and prize-draw opportunities. The site also offers information for publishers interested in business collaborations.
