Play and Win

Do you like playing tabletop games? Do you like free things? If you answered yes to either of these questions, you should come check out our Play and Win program (PAW)! There will be chances to win free board games and daily quests to win guaranteed prizes.

Rules

Play and Win is available to all Kumoricon attendees and staff. To participate:

  1. Check out the game from the Play and Win table.
  2. Play the game.
  3. Check in on Sunday to see if you won!

The initial winner will be announced at 12:00pm on Sunday and a written list of winners will be posted. Winners must arrive at the PAW table by 3:00pm to claim their game. To claim their game:

  1. The winner must present their badge to PAW staff for verification.
  2. The winner will then receive their game and have their photo taken with their game. This photo will be used exclusively by Kumoricon for use in marketing the PAW program.
  3. After 3:00pm, if the game is not claimed, PAW staff will select additional winners, one at a time. Winners must be present to claim their game and follow the same procedure listed above. At 4:00pm, drawings will stop and all unclaimed games will be added to the Kumoricon library or used for next year's PAW.

Kamigami Battles

In Kamigami Battles, you will play as one of the Gods of mythology competing for dominion over the realm. You will recruit ancient Warriors and Disciples to fight in epic battles against the Gods trying to conquer your world! Each God has a pool of life force called energy, and by reducing a God to 0 energy, you can either kill or seal that God away! Players can choose to pair up with their friends in Team Match or wage war on all those who oppose them in Free-For-All.
