Events
The Game Crafter loves to support indie board game designers and events! We provide support in three ways:
- We sponsor game design events with game pieces, blank components, and gift certificates for game contests and prototyping.
- We offer a Designer Table Sponsorship where designers represent themselves and The Game Crafter community.
- We're an exhibitor at conventions and talk about our service and showcase games produced in our community.
