SPIEL Essen 2026
Move game conversations from the first playtest to a concrete distribution opportunity.

SPIEL Essen 2026
Prepare for a focused event day
An event-specific form separates game title, type, audience, language, player count, recommended age, duration, development or release stage, distribution interest, territory and next action. Discussions with retail, media and partners remain comparable.
Multilingual voice input maps selections, numbers and dates to stable field IDs. Free impressions from a demo retain the spoken wording and every suggestion is reviewed before saving.
DRADEO is an independent lead capture platform. A partnership with the organiser is only stated when it is documented.
