Protospiel Chicago 2026

Come to the 10th Annual Protospiel Chicago, where Boardgame Designers and Playtesters meet to test and improve prototype games!

Join over 200 game enthusiasts for 3 days of game playtesting fun!

Designers - Bring your prototype games to play many times over the weekend.
Playtesters - Try all types of games, and be ready to give meaningful feedback to help make the games better, before they go to Kickstarter or hit store shelves.

There is no fixed schedule: Set up a game on an open table and get people to play it! Walk around and find games to play!

See https://Protospiel-Chicago.org/ for ALL the details, and to Register.

Note: There is a fee to attend this event. It is highly recommended you register in advance, since we have sold out the last 3 years.
