Pöytäversio

Pöytäversio is a Finnish term that translates to "desktop version" or "tabletop version." It is commonly used in the context of software applications and games. When referring to software, a pöytäversio signifies the standard, full-featured edition of a program designed to be used on a personal computer, as opposed to mobile or web-based alternatives. This typically implies a more robust set of functionalities and a user interface optimized for larger screens and keyboard/mouse input.

In the realm of board games and tabletop role-playing games, pöytäversio refers to the physical, non-digital form of the game. This includes the game board, cards, dice, miniatures, and rulebooks that players interact with directly on a table. It contrasts with digital adaptations or video game versions of the same game, which are played on electronic devices. The appeal of a pöytäversio often lies in its tactile nature, the social interaction it fosters among players in person, and the tangible experience of interacting with game components. The term emphasizes the traditional, physical manifestation of a game or software.
