About Gunder'Games
The Gunder'Games: The board game celebration in North Alsace
Born from the passion of a group of players gathered within the association A Koi K'on Joue ?, the Festival des Gunder'Games has quickly established itself as a must-attend event for modern board game enthusiasts in the Bas-Rhin. The event takes place in the spacious Dinah Faust hall, within the L'ESCALe complex in Gundershoffen, offering an ideal setting to welcome hundreds of players.
A Rich and Varied Program
The festival offers a wide choice of playful activities accessible to all ages and levels. Free play areas allow you to discover the latest in the gaming world, while tournaments spice up the atmosphere for more competitive players. The famous giant Werewolf games bring participants together in a supercharged atmosphere, and raffles offer the chance to win games to take home.
Meet the Authors
One of the highlights of the Gunder'Games is the presence of renowned game authors, such as Stefan Feld, guest of honor for the 2025 edition. These meetings allow visitors to discover the behind-the-scenes of game creation, test prototypes, and interact directly with the creators.
A Family and Friendly Event
True to the spirit of board games, the festival emphasizes conviviality and accessibility. Admission is completely free, and on-site catering allows you to spend the day without leaving the warm atmosphere of the event. On Saturday, the evening opening until 10 PM offers a special ambiance, conducive to extended games with friends.
A Strong Local Anchor
Supported by passionate volunteers, the festival is part of the cultural and associative dynamic of Gundershoffen and the Pays de Haguenau. It contributes to promoting modern board games as a unifying, intergenerational leisure activity accessible to all, far from screens and at the heart of social connection.
