🎲 CrashGem Tabletop's 10th Annual Extra Life Mega-Marathon! 🎲

A DECADE of Chaos. $35,000+ Raised. One Epic Return to the Dungeon.

The Crucible of Kaos is back—and this time, the cameras are rolling.

This is our 10th year raising money for Children’s National Hospital through Extra Life, and we want this one to be our biggest, boldest, most batshit bonanza ever. Over the years, you've helped us raise more than $35,000 to support life-saving care for sick kids, and this year, we’re turning up the chaos to 11.

🔥 This Year’s Event:

📅 November 8–9 | 9AM to 9AM | 24 Hours. No Mercy.

One team of crawlers. A SQUAD of Game Masters. One ever-collapsing dungeon.
One goal: Survive the Crucible... and raise a shit-ton of money for charity.

🌀 Sci-Fantasy Mashup Madness

This year’s dungeon crawl is a genre-bending fusion of Pathfinder 2e Remastered and the upcoming Starfinder Revised rulesets! You’ll see laser rifles and spellbooks. Power armor and ancestral relics. Demon lords and corporate mascots. Maybe even a vending machine PC or two. The dungeon doesn’t care what you bring—only that you bleed for the kids.

💡 Bring your most unique crawler. The weirder, the better.

⏳ Meta-Clock of Doom

A mysterious meta-timer will tick away throughout the event…
When it runs out, the current dungeon floor collapses, forcing both teams to descend deeper into the wild, warp-charged depths of the Crucible.
No safe rooms. No saves. Just deeper death.
