The board and card game fair Play! which is primarily aimed at families and newcomers to board games, will be back in Dortmund on April 28th - bigger and more extensive than ever before. The organizer reports a “record number of exhibitors”.

The number of participating exhibitors has continued to rise: more than 100 exhibitors and brands will be represented at this year's fair with their spring innovations and classics. These include large and small publishers, illustrators and game designers with their prototypes. For the first time there is also a separate tabletop area.

In addition to the trademark of Spiel doch!, the huge supervised gaming area where you can borrow and try out games, visitors can also look forward to a wide range of events:

  • On Saturday and Sunday, the final of the 24th German Catan Championship will take place for the first time!
  • On Sunday, Ulisses Games is hosting an Aventuria Team Challenge for up to 20 players 
  • On Saturday there are tournaments in the games Durchmarsch and Knee Deep in Hexes
  • HeidelBÄR presents promotions for Fish & Katz, Tails on Fire, Evergreen and Starship Captains
  • The Asmodee there is a competition with great prizes
  • Pegasus launches Black Hole Buccaneers Meet Event
  • Several author visits with the opportunity for autographs and playing together: Ren Multamäki (Perdition's Mouth, White Hat, Factory 42), Sarah Horny and Sarah Pluschke (Betrayal of the Boss) and Eleonore Ulbrich (Abgeubat)
