# Viewing Games: Gallery, Playback, and Web Browser

> Browse finished and in-progress Voxel Telephone games using the in-game gallery, watch completed games replay with /playback, or explore the web gallery.

Voxel Telephone gives you several ways to browse the games that players have created — both in-game and on the web. The gallery shows finished games as a sequence of paired builds and descriptions, while the playback mode lets you watch a completed game unfold block by block in real time.

## In-game gallery: `/view`

Type `/view` from anywhere in-game to enter the view gallery level. The gallery displays 8 games per page, each game arranged as a row of thumbnail icons. Walk through the space to browse:

* **Finished games** display the full sequence of build thumbnails. Walking near a game row shows the description and attribution for the selected pair in your HUD.
* **Ongoing games** show status icons in place of build previews — you can see that a turn exists but cannot read its content until the game is complete.

The gallery paginates automatically as you walk toward the far end of the level, loading the next set of 8 games.

### Browsing your own builds

```text theme={null}
/view user
```

`/view user` opens a personal gallery showing every build you have contributed to, regardless of whether the associated game has been completed. This is useful for reviewing your own work.

### Aliases

`/museum` and `/gallery` are aliases for `/view` and behave identically.

## Watching a game with `/playback`

While standing in the gallery near a finished game column, type `/playback` to enter a dedicated playback level. The server replays the block-by-block build history of each turn in sequence, showing you exactly how each player constructed their scene. Between turns, the description and contributor names are displayed in chat.

<Note>
  `/playback` only works for fully completed games (all turns submitted). If you select an in-progress game column, the command will tell you the game is not yet complete.
</Note>

## Web gallery

Completed games are also published to the Voxel Telephone website. You can browse them at any time without being logged in to the game server:

* **Games list**: `https://voxel-telephone.bunnynabbit.com/games`
* **Player profile**: `https://voxel-telephone.bunnynabbit.com/player/[username]`

The web gallery renders completed build sequences alongside their descriptions, making it easy to share individual games or player contributions as links.
