FREE GAMES??! Yes I said free games. “Play to Win” is board gaming lingo used to describe a cult like phenomenon where board game manufacturers donate their games to big conventions as nearly free advertising, a group of friends or strangers sit down to play that game, then they put their name in a cup for a chance to win it and take it home with them. So lets say you sit down to play the game “Machi Koro” with 4 players. That’s a 25% chance to take it home for free! There are people that travel to conventions and do nothing but Play to Win, and take home carloads full of board games!! Below is the current Play to Win list, which is always growing, so keep checking back to this website for updates.
