WonderCon Games

WonderCon Games offers 18 different game titles to play for free during the convention. New this year is a Malifaux tournament from Wyrd games. The free games to play all weekend include Malifaux, Monsterpocalypse, Munchkin, Pirates, and many more. WonderCon also features an open gaming area with tables available to play any game you wish . . . please bring your supplies and come on down! Sign in by noon to meet up with fellow players at 1:00, 3:00, and 5:00. Think your game isn't supported? Think again! We have plenty of space for all your favorites with a friendly and knowledgeable game staff to help you get your game on. Players are already looking for head-to-head matches for Chaotic System, Heroclix, Magic, Versus System and Yu-Gi-Oh!

Nighttime Games will be part of WonderCon again this year. When the Exhibit Hall closes at 7:00, gaming makes the transition to nighttime events at the Hilton Anaheim, right next door to the Convention Center. Just take the elevators in the main lobby to the Laguna Room on the fourth floor.

WonderCon will once again have separate Sanctioned Magic and Yu-Gi-Oh! tournaments with materials fees. Heroclix will also have separate tournaments with material fees.

About 98% of games remain free to all attendees; only the Sanctioned Tournament Gaming has a materials fee. Every participant receives prize support, and every winner receives even more, while supplies last. Pick up game-play entries or bring your own products. Players who bring their own sealed deck may have them inspected by one of the sanctioned judges. The sanctioned DCI judges at ThouShaltGame.com Entertainment will be running the Sanctioned Sealed Deck Magic events.
