Arcade & Pinball

Arcade machines, we got'em! Open 24/7 during the event, come down and play some classic arcades and pinball!

Casual Gaming Room

Tons of TVs ready to be hooked up for gaming, bring your own console and games or ask for one from the World9 desk!

Panels

Panels! Come sit down and learn a variety of interesting things from our panel hosts, or attend the live game shows!

Tournaments

Also located in the Practice Room recording area, tournaments! Come sign up for one of the many tournaments hosted by attendees, and test your skills against other people! You can submit a tournament at any time, even during the event itself if you want to get an impromptu bracket going, but they need to be submitted so we can schedule the room time.

Due to Nintendo's new Community Guidelines, unfortunately GDQ is unlicensed and unable to assist in scheduling or running tournaments for first party Nintendo titles. We apologize for the situation.

Kusogrande Live

That's right, Kusogrande live and in person! Brossentia will be hosting a week long tournament! Starting Monday at 10 AM until 2 PM, and continuing every weekday at that time!

Kusogrande is a video game tournament focused on blind races of strange or flawed games. We welcome players of all skill levels to join!

The Speedrun Gauntlet

Located in the Practice Room, GDQ presents The Speedrun Gauntlet!

Monday through Friday, each day will have a different selection of four games and goals to accomplish as fast as possible! There will be multiple practice setups to practice all those speedrun strats, and one machine where you can compete for the day's leaderboard!

Board Game Room

Come on down to the Board Game Room! Need a nice table to spread out a board game and play with friends? Is it time for mahjong? A friendly game of Crokinole? The board game room is here for you! Open 24/7 during the event! Don't worry if you don't have a game, as we will have a library of them to check out and play in the room!

Please note that due to covid concerns, we will be running board games through a UV sterilizer lamp. This can potentially degrade game pieces, so be advised if you are bringing games that the potential for fading pieces exists.

Poker Tournament

Looking for a fun way to help raise money for charity, and to show off your card playing prowess? Come join us in the board gaming room on Thursday for a Texas Holdem tournament. All proceeds will be donated, with the top players getting to chose which incentives they wish to put the donations towards! Shuffle up and deal!

Escape Room

Brought to you by Twisted Tails Escape, we will have an on-site escape room for the whole marathon!

Come help Captain Cody Escape from Otter Space! Tickets are $25 per person with a maximum of 10 players per group. Players by themselves or in a small group will be paired up with other like-minded adventurers to a maximum of 10 players per game. For private bookings, a minimum of 5 tickets must be purchased.
