Boda Games @ Gencon 2025

Boda Games at Gen Con 2025: Three Booths, One Mission — Helping You Make Better Games

We are once again participating in Gencon 2025 — and this year, we’re going bigger than ever. Boda Games Manufacturing will be exhibiting across three dedicated booths, each designed to serve a different part of the tabletop community. Whether you’re a publisher, designer, or just curious about how games get made, we’d love to meet you.

Booth 2135: Meetings & Consultations

Looking to manufacture your next title? Our meeting booth is the place to talk business. Schedule time with our team to discuss timelines, component options, pricing, and how we can support your next release. We’re happy to share our knowledge and insights with everyone. Whether you’re a first-time creator or a seasoned publisher.

Booth 630: Game Showcase

Come see what Boda Games has been working on! At our game showcase booth, we’re showcasing a wide variety of games we’ve manufactured — from small card games to heavy big box euro games. Come check out the range of games we have had the pleasure of working on. See, touch and feel the different components, materials and finishes. Get inspired for your next game project!

First Exposure Hall: Supporting New Designers

We believe in supporting the future of game design and the designers of tomorrow. That’s why we’re also hosting a booth in the First Exposure Playtest Hall — a space where emerging designers can connect with us, ask production-related questions, and get advice on bringing their ideas to life.

Whether you’re looking to produce your first prototype or plan your next print run, Boda Games is here to help you bring your vision to the table — literally.

Set up a meeting with Boda Games
