Buy-In-Games
KantCon promises to have all kinds of games to keep you plotting against your fellow players or other forces promising your ultimate demise. If you’re looking for a little something extra though, consider some of our Buy-In-Games. You might have seen some of these events on the badges page or in Warhorn, and wondered what they are. These are games that have something a little special or unique about them: they may require extra effort by the game master or prizes may be awarded to the players. At the very least, each buy-in game you participate in gets you 5 raffle tickets. Buy-In-Games cost an additional $10 per game.
A description of the Buy-In Games follows the large stylish purchasing links below.

Unsettled Board Game
Do you yearn to boldly go where no gerbil or sentient being has gone before? Do you enjoy long walks on questionable and likely carnivorous terrain? Do you long for the embrace of fungal hosts and the possibility of mind-bending abilities beyond your wildest dreams in search of meager rations to sustain your crew? If so, well sign up for your inevitable demise/the career of a lifetime!
Unsettled is a 2-4 player cooperative survival adventure set in the wondrous and unnerving fringes of uncharted space. Lost amidst the surreal and bizarre unknowns of the far reaches of the cosmos, your crew of explorers must pull together to discover the resources necessary to survive the long journey home, one unsettled planet at a time. In the event of your (likely) demise, your relatives will be notified of where your remains can be collected.
Prizes and extra raffle tickets will be awarded to players.

3d Betrayal at House on the Hill
You are out for a lovely drive in the rolling hills of the countryside when your car breaks down. Hmmm, no cell service. Good thing there's a giant House on the Hill. Let's go check it out. What's the worst that could happen?
In Betrayal at House on the Hill, players explore a 3d printed haunted mansion of their own design, encountering spirits and frightening omens that foretell their fate. Eventually, one of the characters betrays the rest of the party, and the innocent members of the party must defeat the traitor in their midst before it’s too late!
This game will largely use 1st edition rules with minor adjustments and a pre-planned haunt. 3d printed prizes will be available.

SOLD OUT - Return to Dark Tower
For an age, the tower lay in ruins. Unbeknownst to the people of the realm, a great evil stirred in its bowels. It started with strange sightings: a flock of crows flying in circles until they dropped from the sky, the lake frozen solid in the height of summer. In time, they could not deny that which they most feared.
The evil had not been vanquished. The darkness would soon fall again. The tower will rise.
A "sequel" to the 1981 grail game, Return to Dark Tower is a game for 1-4 players who take the role of heroes. Together, they gather resources, cleanse buildings, defeat monsters, and undertake quests to build up their strength and discern what foe ultimately awaits them. When the heroes face the tower, the game shifts into its dramatic second act, where the players have one chance to defeat the enemy once and for all.
Prizes and extra raffle tickets will be awarded to players.
