How Play to Win Works


1. Visit the SVP Game Library


All Play to Win titles are clearly marked and shelved together in the Library.

You can browse the selection at any time during the convention.


2. Check Out a Play to Win Game


Borrow the game from the Library using the standard checkout process.


A volunteer will:


  • Record your name
  • Record the game title
  • Log the time of checkout


This ensures your playthrough is counted.


3. Play the Game


Find a table, gather your group, and enjoy the game!


You may play:


  • With friends
  • With other attendees
  • Solo, if the game allows it


A full playthrough is required for entry.


4. Return the Game to the Library


When you bring the game back:


  • A volunteer will confirm the playthrough
  • Your name will be added to the draw list for that specific title


Each completed playthrough = one entry.


5. Play More Games for More Chances


You can play as many Play to Win titles as you like.

Each game has its own draw, and each playthrough earns you another entry.


Draws & Winners


When Draws Occur


Draws take place near the end of the convention (exact time listed in the Play to Win tab).


How Winners Are Selected


For each game:


  • All entries are placed into a draw
  • One winner is selected at random
  • Winners must be present or reachable during the announcement window


If a winner cannot be reached, another name will be drawn.


Prize Pickup


Winners collect their game from the Play to Win area or Library volunteers.

A quick ID check may be required.
