Learn how to set up and care for your Roll Player Playmat. Includes step-by-step instructions, common mistakes, and product details.
Quick answer
Set up your Roll Player Playmat by unrolling it flat on a clean surface and letting it settle. For care, wipe with a damp cloth and store rolled loosely in a dry place.
Why a playmat matters for Roll Player
A dedicated playmat keeps cards and tokens from sliding during play, especially on smooth tables. The Roll Player Playmat has a smooth cloth top and rubber bottom that grips the table, so your game stays put even during intense character-building sessions.
The playmat supports both the Monsters & Minions and Fiends & Familiars expansions, with slots for all card types. That means you can use it for the base game and both expansions without needing extra mats.
Step-by-step setup and care
- Unroll and flatten: Place the playmat on a clean, dry table. Unroll it gently and let it lie flat for 10–15 minutes. If it curls at the edges, place a few books on the corners for an hour. Don't force it flat immediately—patience prevents creases.
- Position for your game: Orient the playmat so the card slots align with your seating. Leave enough table space around it for dice, player boards, and expansion components. Check that both expansion card slots are accessible before you start dealing cards.
- Clean after each session: Wipe the cloth surface with a slightly damp microfiber cloth. Avoid soaking the mat—moisture can damage the rubber backing. Let it air dry completely before rolling. Never use harsh cleaners or bleach; they can fade the artwork.
- Store properly: Roll the playmat loosely with the cloth side facing out. Store it in a dry, room-temperature area away from direct sunlight. Avoid folding or stacking heavy items on top. A tight roll can cause permanent creases; a loose roll keeps the surface smooth.
