Gather is such a fun and creative platform! I always look forward to joining events hosted on Gather, as opposed to other video conferencing tools I've had to use for school and work. I'm also amazed at how versatile and adaptable it is -- I've participated via Gather in events of various scale and occasion, from departmental graduation celebrations to simple game nights with friends (have also heard about it being used for weddings, happy hours, college orientations, etc). Super excited to incorporate Gather more into my everyday interactions, and even more excited to see how it continues to develop!

Was just in a mini-conference with my Alma Mater and I was very impressed with how they used Gather Town! Definitely needs just a little polish but the experience was very cool and didn't require any gaming PC or VR tools. I think there's something that can be done with maybe like a push-to-talk mic because leaving it on can be disruptive as people are popping in and out or walking by. Looking forward to seeing how this evolves!

Oh, the nostalgia. I'm having flashbacks to my RPG days as a kid. Well done, @phillip_wang3 and team.

I love the proximity chat combined with the ability to move around, just like at a real party! Can't wait to host our Yule Fest on Gather!

Love this platform! I hosted a math festival using gather.town and people loved it! Kids learned how to navigate and use some basic functions quickly!

Review Gather Town?

Reviewers mostly praise Gather Town as a virtual office that makes remote work feel more like being onsite: people can quickly “walk over” to teammates, start informal chats, host easy guest meetings, and make meetings feel less flat and more engaging than standard video calls. One founder, the maker of Kai, echoes that daily use, saying it replaces calendar-heavy coordination with quick drop-ins. The main complaints are reliability issues, especially occasional voice-chat failures in meeting rooms and editing bugs that can cause changes not to save.
