Six steps from install to your first game
CamTable sets up a game table inside your Discord Web call, and addons bring the games. The only install is a Chrome extension, and the Official Addon comes with it for your first game; everything else happens in the call. CamTable's interface is in Turkish for now, so each step gives the Turkish label you'll see and what it means.
- Chrome on desktop
- Discord Web
- Free to join
- Everyone
Step 1: Add the extension to Chrome
CamTable is a Chrome extension. Add it from the Chrome Web Store; all it needs is Chrome 116 or newer on a computer.
No sign-up: CamTable starts you as a guest (Misafir). If Discord is already open, reload its tab once, since CamTable loads when the tab does.
Add to Chrome Chrome Web Store- Free to install
- No sign-up needed
- Chrome 116 or newer, on desktop
- Everyone
Step 2: Join a call on Discord Web
Open
discord.comin Chrome and sign in to Discord. Join a voice channel on a server, or start a call with a friend or a group.Turn your camera on: most games seat everyone's camera at the table, so you play face to face. CamTable doesn't run in the Discord desktop app or on phones.
- Everyone
Step 3: Open CamTable
A vertical handle sits halfway down the page's right edge, marked CamTable.app. Click it and the CamTable panel slides over the page without squeezing it. The CamTable icon in Chrome's toolbar and Alt+Shift+C open and close it too.
The panel has three tabs: Keşfet (Discover) for games, Oda (Room) for the room in your call, and Eklentilerim (My addons) for your addons. The first time, read the Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy and press Kabul ediyorum (I accept); you need this to start or join a room.
- Host
Step 4: Pick a game and start it in the call
In Keşfet, click a poster in the Resmî oyunlar (Official games) category. On the game's page, under Nerede oynanır (Where to play), press Oyna (Play). CamTable asks Bu aramada başlatılsın mı? (Start it in this call?); press Başlat (Start) and the room opens.
Opening a room takes a Plan: Bireysel Host (Individual Host), or a Discord server on the Community Plan. Either way you need to be signed in with Discord: press the account icon in the panel, then Discord ile giriş yap (Sign in with Discord). During the invite-only beta we grant Plans by hand and charge nothing. More in Plans in plain words.
- Your friends
Step 5: Your friends join
Your friends install the extension and open CamTable too. In the Oda tab they find the game under Bu aramadaki odalar (Rooms in this call) and press Katıl (Join). Joining is free, even as a guest.
If the game's addon isn't installed for them and they haven't approved it before, or the game asks for a new permission, a join prompt (Katılım onayı) comes up before the game loads: which addon it is, what it may do, who runs the rules. Katıl ve oyna (Join and play) seats them. Vazgeç (Cancel) keeps them in the call, and the game doesn't open for them.
Official games seldom ask: the official addon comes with CamTable, with the permissions it had on the day they installed it.
- Everyone
Step 6: Set it up, start, play
If the game has settings, the room waits in the lobby first. The host picks the rules under Oyun ayarları (Game settings) in the Oda tab and presses Maçı başlat (Start the match). The button stays off until enough players are seated.
The game opens over the call. Scores and the Sıra Ece'de (Ece's turn) band show on the camera tiles. If the game pulls you into a whisper, your own tile says Ece, Mert ile fısıltıdasın (You're whispering with Ece and Mert): the table can't hear you then, and you can't hear the table.
Tam ekran (Full screen) on the game's top bar spreads the call and the game across your screen together. When you're done, press Odadan ayrıl (Leave room).
Roles
The host and the players
Every room has one host; everyone else is a player. The person who opens the room holds the Plan, and everyone at the table plays free.
Host
- Signed in with Discord, with a Plan: their own Bireysel Host (Individual Host), or the host role on a server with the Community Plan.
- Picks the game and opens the room; chooses the rules in the lobby and starts the match.
- Can remove a player, or close the room for everyone.
- Has one open room at a time.
- If their connection drops, the match pauses for 15 minutes: it goes on when they return and ends if they don't. The room never passes to someone else.
Player
- Anyone with the extension. They can join as a guest, without signing in with Discord.
- Presses Katıl (Join) in the Oda tab, and answers the join prompt when it asks.
- Needs no Plan and pays nothing.
- Leaves any time with Odadan ayrıl (Leave room), and can join again while the room is open.
The rules run either on the addon's server or in the host's browser. When they run in the host's browser, the host could see hidden information; the game's page and the join prompt say which it is.

Plans
Plans in plain words
A Plan decides who can open rooms. During the invite-only beta we grant Plans by hand: no payment, no prices.
- Everyone
Ücretsiz Oyuncu (Free Player)
Joins rooms and plays. A guest account is always on this Plan.
- One person
Bireysel Host (Individual Host)
The Plan of an account signed in with Discord. Opens rooms in any call: on a server, with a friend or with a group. One open room at a time.
- One Discord server
Topluluk (Community)
The server's Plan. Members with its host role open rooms in that server's voice channels; the server's room pool sets how many rooms can be open at once. The CamTable Community bot has to be on the server.
Whoever opens the room holds the Plan, and everyone at the table plays free. With your own Individual Host Plan you open rooms on it, even on a Community's server.
Addons
Adding other games
The official games come with CamTable, nothing more to install. Other games come in addons that their authors host on their own sites.
- Open the Eklentilerim (My addons) tab in the CamTable panel.
- Paste the link the addon's author shared into the Eklenti bağlantısını yapıştır (Paste the addon link) field; it usually ends in
manifest.json. Press Ekle (Add). - CamTable shows the addon's name, its address, the permissions it asks for and who runs the rules. If that's fine, press Ekle again; its games appear in Keşfet.
An author can also send you an install link: it opens the same consent screen. Without CamTable installed, the page says so and points you to the Chrome Web Store; open the link again once it's installed.
CamTable doesn't host, review or recommend community addons, so only add ones from people you trust. To remove one, press Kaldır (Remove) in Eklentilerim.

Troubleshooting
If something goes wrong
There's no handle on the right edge
Reload the Discord tab after installing or updating the extension. Make sure Discord is open in Chrome, at discord.com; CamTable doesn't run in the desktop app.
The panel says “CamTable bu sekmede çalışmıyor”
That's “CamTable isn't running in this tab”: the extension was updated or reloaded while the page was open. Reload the tab and CamTable connects again.
I pressed Başlat and no room opened
The panel says why. Oda kurmak Bireysel Host planı gerektirir means your account has no Plan: let a friend with a Plan open the room, and you join with Katıl. On a Community's server it also tells you when you lack the host role or the room pool is full.
My voice doesn't reach the whisper
CamTable asks for the microphone in a tab of its own: in the tab that says Fısıltı için mikrofonun gerekiyor (Your microphone is needed for the whisper), answer Chrome's prompt with Allow. If you blocked it, open the site settings from the icon at the left of the address bar.
Whispers start as push-to-talk: hold V while you speak. You can switch to Açık mikrofon (Open mic) under Mikrofon ayarları (Microphone settings) in the Oda tab.
The game disappears in full screen
The game doesn't show in Discord's own full screen. Use Tam ekran (Full screen) on the game's top bar instead: cameras, the game and the panel stay in view.
It says “Oyun açılamadı”
That's “The game couldn't open”: its page didn't load, and the addon's server may be down. Press Yeniden dene (Try again). If it still won't open, leave with Odadan ayrıl on the top bar; you stay in the call.
Still stuck? See the FAQ and the security page.
