Gaming at Necronomicon is a great way to spend downtime between panels and events, or your whole weekend. We offer a wide selection of games that can be checked out from the game library as well as our Play-To-Win games. Following the conclusion of gaming we also hold the Survivors Raffle where we give away free prizes for anyone who sticks out through the end of the convention.
