My friend's gaming group scattered after a few moves, so they attempted online sessions. Picture eight adults trying to synchronize a video call while someone's kid cried over a dropped token. They switched to Tabletop Simulator and spent an hour just learning to flip a virtual card. Eventually they managed a full game of Terraforming Mars without any house rules arguments. The digital save feature meant they could pause mid crisis when a dog needed walking. It basically became their weekly lifeline to arguing about resource management.
