TABLETOP GAMING
Tabletop Gaming in partnership with Misty Mountain Gaming.
SEE YOU AT THE SUMMIT
In 2024 tabletop gaming expanded its presence in the Summit building of the Seattle Convention Center. Fans enjoyed twice as much seating for tabletop freeplay with the same great library and more RPGs, plus new and returning show features like Paint and Take and The Deception Zone.
Browse this page and check back closer to the show for exciting news, tournaments, and more.
BOARD GAME LIBRARY
Seriously, we have so many tabletop games, you have no idea. Look, here’s what I want you to do. Think of a tabletop game, and go to the Tabletop Library. We’ve probably got it. Check out the game. Find a table. If you’ve come with friends, force them to play with you. It shouldn’t be hard. If you’ve come alone, we’ve got a solution for that too...ask a Tabletop Freeplay Enforcer for a Looking for Group marker. Look, we’ve got this down. All you need to worry about is rolling them crits.
FIRST LOOK
Learn, play, and shop for the buzziest games from around the US. You’ll get to be among the first to play brand new/up and coming games curated specially for PAX fans, all included with your badge.
