The BackerKit team is heading to Germany for Essen Spiel 2019—one of the world’s largest tabletop gaming conventions. Once again we’ll be set up in Hall 1, Booth #1D129 alongside our friends LudiCreations, Breaking Games, and Lay Waste Games!
This year we’re doing something a little different. Introducing BackerKit Passport—your guide to 9 amazing booths featuring games and products brought to life through crowdfunding.
How it works: Pick up a BackerKit Passport at our booth or from one of our participants. Get a stamp for each booth you visit, and once you get all 9, return to BackerKit for a limited edition prize!
