Gen Con booth 2844
23 days ago – Sun, Jul 26, 2026 at 03:54:34 AM

Hello! 
I'm flying to America tomorrow for Gen Con! We'll be at booth 2844 with very limited copies of each of our games and plushies! Like dozens to a couple hundred of each. Come by fast if you want something!

We've shipped out 96% of Red Panda Surprise and Use Up All Your Sick Days. We'll finish the last few orders after Gen Con. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to message me (it's fastest via https://charming.games or on instagram or discord. Leaving a comment here doesn't alert me for a day or two).

Cheers,
dylan

P.S. We also got our Spiel Essen booth number: 4E415. See you soon!

Conventions

Come meet Charming Games at UKGE booth 2-364, and Gen Con booth 2844.
Otter was nominated for the best general card game of 2025 by the UKGE judges! We'll have plenty of copies there, but we are almost sold out online! The reprint probably won't be finished until August.

Or come watch me solo play and talk about Red Panda Surprise online:

💫Red Panda Surprise campaign is live and the PNP is available now💫

Red Panda Surprise is alive now, starting at $15!
https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/dylancoyle/red-panda-surprise

You can also download the PNP for $0 all weekend long! I tried to focus on super simple rules with layers of strategy for this one. But reading the rules doesn't convey the emotions at the table, so if you have any doubts, you're welcome to try it out first.

We already reached our first stretch goal: linen finish.
Next goal is Gilded Edges! Just like and comment to help unlock!

Thanks for the support as always! And don't hesitate to ask any questions. I'm in Shanghai, so the time zone difference might make me take me a while to respond, but I will ASAP!

Cheers,
