Games on Demand – Gen Con Update

It’s been a few weeks since Gen Con, and we’ve finally pulled together most of the data from the event. I’ll share more of the details soon, as well as a link to a survey to gather feedback, but for now, here’s a summary:

– 354 game sessions run

– 92 distinct games (not including scenario variations)

– 232 two-hour games

– 122 four-hour games

– 1667 players seated

Nicely done, everyone! Thanks to the volunteers for helping to make it happen, and to the many players who joined us this year!
