Be in it to win it!

The play to win is on again in 2024 with a huge range of great games to win!

To have a chance to win, it's just a few simple steps: Play, Scan, then Submit!

  1. Borrow a game from the play-to-win area and give it a go

  2. After you have played the game scan the QR code inside the box lid

  3. Complete the online form to submit your entry

If you're having trouble check out the FAQ's at the bottom of the page.

Only one entry per person will be entered into the draw for each game.  The rating you give or the number of times you play the game will not affect your chances to win. 

Love trying new games but hate reading rules? Some games will be taught by volunteers, designers, or publishers. Check out the aftergame for scheduled sessions we will have posters near the play-to-win area at Wellycon. Check out Dized for some easy-to-follow tutorials.

The main prizes will be drawn on Sunday at 6:00pm. You don't need to be present to win. Prizes will be limited to one per attendee. Bold game titles below will be part of the kids prize draw which will be done separately each day at 2pm. We will send a text to the winners so please ensure you have loaded your mobile number into Humanitix!

NB: You need to purchase your Wellycon ticket in advance to be eligible for the play-to-win. On the day tickets will not be able to enter to win.

Our play-to-win software is developed by Black Rhino Software.
