Hi folks! Owlbear 1.0 was my favorite VTT because I was just able to drop in maps and tokens and play. Also you didn’t need an account. I was wondering if someone knew of a similar VTT, paid or free that offered a similar experience and that I wouldn’t need to make an account for?
I don’t know Owlbear 1.0, but I’ve thoroughly enjoyed Foundry VTT. From what you describe, though, Foundry does not hit that same simplicity. I find it simple enough to use but it can also easily be extended with plugins to customize to your liking.
Me personally, i like maptool. You can self host it and make a server for everyone to join.
Its not the prettiest or the absolute easiest to use when you first open it up, but you might give it a chance if you like open source projects and the privacy that comes with self hosting:

You can make maps, place tokens, write custom scripts for functions, and a whole lot of other cool stuff.
I really appreciate this, thanks!
There’s a legacy edition available here, but I don’t know of any other VTTs that fulfil owlbear’s niche of simplicity.
