We keep this tradition going to honor Michelle Farnsworth's legacy — by lifting up artists of all skill levels, making space for everyone, and raising funds for Childrens Miracle Network along the way.

Sub Terra is a co-op survival horror game.
Translation: You and your friends descend into a cave, realize you made a mistake, and then die yelling about it.

There are floods. There’s gas. There’s darkness.
There are THINGS in the dark.
It’s stressful. It’s amazing. You’ll love it.

Septima is a game of witchcraft, strategy, and extremely petty spellcasting. Brew potions, gather herbs, and fight off the ever-judgy townsfolk — all while managing your coven and trying not to get caught holding a suspicious mushroom.

🩸 Hope you're okay being gaslit by 12 people for 90 minutes straight.

There’s backstabbing. There's bluffing. There’s screaming. You might cry. You’ll definitely accuse your best friend of murder. And then you’ll do it all over again.

Meeple-a-thon is more than a weekend of games.
It’s a community. It’s a mission. And it’s made possible by people like you who care about Kansas City, about inclusivity, and about creating something meaningful.

We can't wait to see you in November!

🎲 Looking for players!

Meeple-a-thon is Kansas City’s charity gaming convention, and we’re stacking the tables with everything from party games to epic campaigns — plus miniature painting, tournaments, and special events all weekend long.

Back in 2000, someone mashed together “my people” while placing their little wooden character on the board… and boom! “MEEPLE” was born.

Meeples come in all colors, shapes, and sizes — just like our community — and we’re proud to have them in our name. 💛

You asked for high-seas chaos, and we’re delivering it with a Fist Full of Seamen ⚓ — trust us, this hilarious pirate-themed strategy game is way more wholesome than it sounds (Though we do suggest being 18+).

Recruit your crew. Secure the loot. Sink your enemies or maybe your dignity.

We’re bringing the strategy, the intensity, and the ultimate thrill to this year’s event with War Games! Both seasoned general & first-time commanders, get ready to test your tactics in epic head-to-head skirmishes.

Let us know what war games you’re hoping to see on the battlefield! 🛡🎲

Meeple-a-thon is the perfect place to meet fellow gamers who get it. Whether you're into TTRPGs, war games, or the most obscure deck-builder out there, there's a table for you.

👇 Drop your favorite game in the comments and let’s see who else is rolling with your crew!

Every badge, every raffle ticket, every dice roll at Meeple-a-thon helps raise funds for real people in our community. This year, we’re proud to support A Turning Point KC, helping families find stability and hope.

🛸 Join us November 14–16 at the Overland Park Convention Center.
