Spiel-a-thon at GenCon 2022
We had a ridiculous amount of fun hosting a Spiel-a-thon at GenCon 2022.
The Spiel Foundation believes play is a positive and powerful force in the world.
That idea shines so brightly at events like this.
It was great to connect and reconnect with so many wonderful people across the wide world of games. We couldn’t do what we do without everyone’s generous spirit and genuine desire to help. I look forward to seeing what partnerships are born out of these few hours of fun.
Below you’ll see pictures of our finalists: Paula Deming, Madison Brady, Alex Hart, and Nicolas Murphy and the entire gang who came out to play!
Congratulations to Nick Murphy, our Spiel-a-thon Champion! Wear your Meeple Crown with pride!!
Special thanks and heartfelt gratitude to the tireless Chris Goodlet of The Charity Boardgamer and to Czech Games Edition (especially Nathan Meunier!)
Thanks to The Charity Boardgamer for allowing us to run the Spielathon as part of their gathering.
Thanks to Czech Games Edition for providing us with an amazing venue and prize support for our finalists.
Our volunteer staff was beyond awesome. Michael McMann, Allen Dove, Chris Porto, and Jenn C deserve our deep love and gratitude for making the Spielathon fun for everyone.

We believe games can build bridges between us.
They help create community.
We are honored, proud, and grateful to be a part of this one.
