A game table is a table that is designed specifically for gaming—the OG kind of games like chess, checkers, cards, or backgammon, not those newfangled digital video games. It often has counter features and custom designs painted or inlaid on top. Some game tables have felt tops and even include accessories appropriate to a specific game.

While the pastime of long afternoons drinking iced tea and playing table games may be foreign today, game tables make great decorative accents in design (or give you an excuse to show off that designer backgammon set).
