The Party Booth is at #1535
North Star Games is the official self-proclaimed GenCon 2008's Party Booth! Stop by anytime to play a quick 15 minute party game with 5 - 8 fun-loving geeks. You'll get Funny Money just for playing in a game (and having a great time).

But that's not the half of it! If you win your game... (and only if you win)... you'll get to spin the PRIZE-O-MATIC 5000! That's right, we'll have a genuine state of the art PRIZE-O-MATIC 5000 at the booth this year. Spinning this monstrosity is so much fun you're almost guaranteed to pee your pants...


(This is the look of someone about to pee their pants)


Prizes
Get $2 Funny Money for each of the following:
- Playing Say Anything at our booth
- Playing Wits & Wagers at our booth
- Playing Cluzzle at our booth

The winner of each game gets a spin on the PRIZE-O-MATIC 5000!

So you'll get $6 in Funny Money just for playing our games (a lot more if you win spins), but pool your Funny Money with several friends and you'll definitely be walking away with FREE GAMES!!


Play Our Latest Release!
One of the best reasons to visit our booth is to try out Say Anything. You'll amused at what happens when your friends realize they can...as it were... Say Anything.

 
 
 
 



Game Show events
We are hosting several Team Wits & Wagers Game Show events at GenCon this year. Go to our website for details about the prizes and to see why these events are getting such great buzz!

Friday: 10pm - 11:30

So round up friends, come up with a cool team name, and get ready to have a great time!



 
 



About Wits & Wagers:
Wits & Wagers is a perfect mix of trivia and gambling. It won 17 industry awards including Party Game of the Year from the Board Game Geek and Games Magazine. It was recently released on the Xbox, is slated to come out in 4 new languages this year, and is available at Target.


About Say Anything:
Say Anything was released on July 15th and should be available at your local game store starting in August. It is a pure party game that quickly gets people laughing, talking, and having fun. The game play is best described as a mix between Apples to Apples and Wits & Wagers.


About North Star Games:
North Star Games designs games that both gamers and non-gamers can enjoy together over the holidays. Their goal is to create games that are simple enough for non-gamers, have enough interesting strategy for gamers, and generate a liberal amount of laughter and cheering. The company is (hopefully) a testament to what can be achieved when experienced game designers set out to publish party games that can be enjoyed together by gamers and non-gamers.

How very true. We BGGers are as special as it gets. You, Tom, you especially are very special. Sometimes I forget, but I'm special too, and damn it, people like me.

So come to GenCon with a print out your BGG avatar, show it to me in the booth, and I'll give you $5 Funny Money. But then you have to yell "The Board Game Geek is the best website in the world!" at the top of your lungs (well, at least loud enough that people hear it in the next few booths).

:p

PS I'll definitely forget that I said this by the time GenCon rolls around, so you'll have to remind me.

Hey Dom,

My mom said I was so special I got to ride the short bus to school :laugh:

No seriously - you think there are people out there who like me, that ROCKS I am writing home to mom right now!


I will be yelling before I get to the booth and after I get my Funny $, hoping to get extra $ for extra Enthusiam - Heck I will scream you have the greatest Party games in the world also - call me a funny Money whore if you want. I am ashamed to think what I would do for GG, and for Funny $ I would even do crazier things.

Can't wait to meet you!
