Schedule a Cosmolancer Demo Event by October 30

Introduce your players to Cosmolancer—a galactic reimagining of legendary designer Reiner Knizia’s Kingdoms—by running a demo event November 7–23. Plus, the first 200 stores in North America to schedule by October 30 will receive a free copy of the game and 15 foil-finish tile part sheets to giveaway to participating players!

UPDATE: All 200 promotional kits for this program have been claimed. However, you may still schedule the event and use your own copy of Cosmolancer for in-store demos. Doing so will help demonstrate interest in expanded support for future promotions like this.

Looking for more game options to offer your community? Cosmolancer is a competitive board game that offers a light, fun, and family-friendly play experience that's a great change of pace for players.

In Cosmolancer, players become freelance space photographers, capturing dazzling cosmic phenomena while avoiding hazards that can ruin a perfect shot. Its easy-to-learn tile-placement mechanics make it approachable for casual players and families, while still providing enough strategy to satisfy board game enthusiasts.

Host a Cosmolancer Demo Event with Promos

From November 7 through November 23, 2025, WPN stores in North America can run Cosmolancer demo events to introduce this exciting title to their communities. Events are casual, player-focused, and easy to run. Simply use the Cosmolancer – Avalon Hill Game Nights template in Wizards EventLink and schedule by October 30.

The first 200 stores to schedule by the deadline will receive a kit shipped via Smartpress containing:

  • Cosmolancer game
  • Cosmolancer mini-poster to promote Game Nights
  • Cosmolancer counter standee to promote Game Nights
  • 15 Cosmolancer foil-finish tile part sheets promos

The giveaways are a terrific way to drive attendance and give participants something memorable to take home from the event.

Positive Responses from Demonstrations

Early demos have shown strong results: once players try Cosmolancer, they’re eager to purchase their own copy. Running a demo event in your store not only helps you generate excitement but also provides a strong sales opportunity. Hosting multiple demo sessions is encouraged so you can introduce the game to different groups in your community. Be sure to have copies available for sale to capitalize on event interest.
