Join the Free Protospiel Online Design Challenge

Welcome to our free-to-join tabletop game design challenge with no contest, judging, prize, award, or deadline! Similar to the goal at our triannual online playtesting conventions, the focus is community connection, trading feedback on design problems, and having fun!

If you still need some game bits, check out our 20-piece bits sets for sale through The Game Crafter. Or, if you already have extra game bits and want to make them into a challenge for a friend, download the free ‘print and play’ challenge booklet and share it as your invitation to connect over a fresh game design.

We welcome all participants to bring your challenge-inspired prototypes to our online playtesting convention coming up soon:

Fill out the form below to join the FREE Protospiel Online Discord community and share your challenge journey with other designers from across the globe!

If you’ve purchased a badge for the current Protospiel Online convention or Panelspiel Online virtual conference, instead of continuing here, visit our join Discord page and choose the option that fits you best.
