Blind Build AFOL

Players all receive the same small set to build (set not revealed until the game). Players may read their instructions, but cannot see the parts they are assembling!

Points are deducted for parts in the wrong places, and for missing parts.

The winner gets an awesome prize, and everyone has a great time (and keeps their small set).

Blind Build TFOL

See Blind Build AFOL for details.

Cards Against Humanity

A party game for horrible people.  Unlike most of the party games you may have played before, Cards Against Humanity is as despicable and awkward as you and your friends.  For this modified version you will receive bricks for good answers, and you will need to build something rude with your bricks for the win.

If you are easily offended, do not play this game.

Checkers Tournament AFOL

See Checkers Tournament TFOL for details.

Checkers Tournament TFOL

The classic checkers game.  You know it!  You love it!

Well, okay, so you don't "love" it.  But it's a decent game.  And of course the further you last in this tournament, the bigger the LEGO prize you receive :)

Closing Door Prizes

Simply attend the Closing Ceremonies - they are extremely brief - which end with more LEGO prizes. Names are drawn from a hat.

Combo-Build

Each player is given the same 2 sets to start. Each player combines the sets to build an entirely original creation. The MOC deemed the most unique and creative wins a prize. All players keep their 2 sets :)

Cornhole Tournament

The classic cornhole game ("made of LEGO").  Individuals compete, eliminating each other until only two are left.  Top placers win LEGO prizes.

A fun, relaxing game!

Dirty Buildster

Players are provided with random baggies of bricks. When the host says, "Go," players start building!

Players have limited time to build the most creative MOC they can muster. The objective is to be more creative than your competition and you must do it with your limited bricks and limited time.

• Baggies of bricks are provided for you.
• Baggies are the luck of the draw. You may find your bricks difficult to work with, but we'll try to keep all bags equal and fair.
• You are not required to use every brick in the bag - simply be as creative as you can with what you have.
• The final MOCs are judged.
• There is only one winner who gets a prize, but every player gets to keep their baggie of bricks!

Early Draft

This special early check-in game is mathmatically similar to the $15 Draft, but the sets remain a mystery until game time.  Early Draft is hosted early the first day.  We'll call upon 12 players from among the walk-ups.  Check-in promptly on the first day to join in this special game.

Fluxx

A game where the rules change, and so does the goal for winning!  A fun loosey-goosey game with, as always, a LEGO prize for the winner.

Added in the last 13 days.

GBC Workshop

Buy-In: $25

This workshop will introduce the fun of building Great Ball Contraption modules.  The kit costs $31, -$6 Bill Bourn credit, so $25, and is limited to 50 units.  Buying the kit is not required; exhibitors may audit the workshop.  Of course the kit is required for hands-on learning.

Limit one kit per person.

Upon completion each student will have a working GBC module which can be linked together with other students' modules.  Everyone who wishes to participate can include their module in the full GBC display for the public to see all weekend; simply collect your module Sunday evening.

Join us!

Here's the instructions and parts list!  If you weren't selected to play, you can bring your own parts!

The kit cost us $31 to pack; the estate of Bill Bourn sponsors the extra $6 for you.  Bill wanted to keep the GBC thriving, and so do we.  Join us!

Go Fish Tournament

This is the classic carnival "gold fish bowl" game.  Get your ping pong balls into the bowls, and win some LEGO pieces!

The longer you last in the tournament the more LEGO you win.  Open to all ages, all skill levels or no skill, experienced or novice, familiar with the game or not - everyone can win.

Oh, just sign up!

Guesstimate

A jar of LEGO pieces is the prize - and the challenge.

Just guess how many pieces are in the jar (or at least be the closest guess) and win the jar. Simple!

Hold'em

This is your standard Texas Hold'em poker tournament, played with LEGO cards and top 5 placers take home a LEGO prize.

Poker knowledge required, obviously.

Minifig Swap

Bring in your unwanted or less-than-loved minifigs to trade with others!  Before the Yard Sales, this one hour exchange is a great opportunity to mix up your minifig collection.

Bring all the minifigs you wish; you never know what others might want!

Cash is discouraged.  This is intended as a swap and trade event.  But we understand cash can make for more even trades.  Volunteers will be around, overlooking, to help ensure (but not guarantee) that less knowledgeable FOLs are aware of the value of their figs.  We're all here to have fun; let's all play nice, please.

Missing Part Build

We swap a part from your set with your competition. You must find and steal back that part in order to complete your build and win your game!

As always, players keep the sets they play with, and the winner gets a LEGO prize to boot!

Opening Door Prizes

Simply attend the Opening Ceremonies which end with some awesome prizes! Names are drawn from a hat.

The Opening Ceremonies is also where first-timers to BrickFair can learn some basics of what to expect during the weekend.

Parts Draft

Buy-In: $30

To participate, bring set (NEW DATA COMING SOON) #10692 Creative Bricks with you to the game.  It's currently (NEW DATA COMING SOON) $13.59 at Wamart - at this price you can bring two sets, get two draws or we'll play twice.

All participants bring the same set to the event.  All sets are opened and parts grouped together (BrickFair chips in a set also), and then parts are divvied up among the participants. Everyone's a winner!

The game host will have extra copies of this set to sell, starting 30 minutes prior to the game.

Saran Wrap Ball

It's called Saran Wrap Ball and it's just that... a massive ball of Saran Wrap with a ton of goodies layered throughout.

Each player takes a turn unwrapping the ball, revealing LEGO prizes within. Unwrap fast!  As soon as the player to your right rolls doubles, your turn is over and you pass the ball!

When the ball is completely unraveled, the game is over.  Everyone keeps the prizes they collected :)

Ticket Raffle

Prizes are on display during AFOL check-in.  Each prize has its own bucket.

Exhibitors find four raffle tickets in their goodie bags.  Drop the tickets into whichever bucket(s) you wish.  Be sure to keep your stub of each ticket!  This game uses numbered tickets, not names.

A random ticket is drawn as the winner for each prize, Saturday morning before the doors open to the public.

Tiger Plastics Open

See you on the green!

World Of Lights

Light up your MOC!  For one hour we'll darken the room and enjoy the show by the street lights of LEGOtown.

NOTE! Last year the venue made the room super-dark for us and has promised the same again!  We're looking forward to a truly dark WOL this year! :)

World Of Lights ^BYOB

Yard Sale

This 2-hour event is your chance to sell your leftover LEGO items without being a vendor.

Outside the vendor area, this is the only time registrants are invited to openly advertise items for sale (the MOC area is a no-sale-sign zone).

Pre-price your items, find a spot in the Yard Sale area, and collect some quick cash for your unwanted LEGO pieces!
