As always it will feature industry mentors, veteran judges, talks and great prizes – you don’t want to miss it!

COMPETITORS: Team Captains may register their teams here Please note that we expect to make additional minor modifications to the Game Challenge format and may offer a question and answer conference call for all Team Captains in mid/late January.

Registration is on a first come, first serve basis, so we encourage all interested teams to sign up as early as possible. The maximum number of competing teams is 40. Competing teams are required to provide team details and a game description etc. during the registration process.

We encourage all potential competitors to read the competition Rules in full prior to registering to ensure that you qualify. Updated Rules will be posted soon but in general they will be very similar to those from past years.
