BackerKit will be at PAX Unplugged in Philadelphia from Friday December 6th through Sunday December 8th. Besides scouring the convention hall floor, demoing amazing new games, and checking out all the after-hours mixers, we love the challenge of fitting all the games we buy into our tightly-packed luggage home.
Be sure to visit BackerKit Booth #2800 this year to meet the team and learn all about what new games are coming to our platform next. We’ll also be featuring a rolling lineup of game demos from some amazing creators. Check out our full schedule:
While you’re at our booth, be sure to pick up our PAX Unplugged “Side Quest” booklet — your guide to some truly amazing booths featuring companies bringing new games to life via BackerKit Crowdfunding.
How it works: Pick up a Side Quest booklet at our booth (#2800) or from any of the participating booths mentioned below. Get a unique stamp from each one you visit, and once you get them all, return to BackerKit for a limited edition prize! Spoiler alert, it’s a Choo-Choo Backer Train enamel pin from Lexidus Art.
