| Taipei Game Show (TGS) is the largest and the only game convention that focuses solely on games in Taiwan. Through its unique geographical and cultural advantages, game developers and publishers around the globe see TGS as their first stop into the Mandarin-speaking market. The show attracts hundreds of thousands gamers to the show every year, creating a great opportunity for indie game developers to reach to a wider gamer base. |

| Taipei Game Show is one of the iconic game fairs in the Asia Pacific region. The show draws huge media attentions every year. Our marketing specialists always put on a full force to assist every developer to reach to more audience. A diversified exhibition line-up and the business visitors from across the world really make Indie House a special section to visit in TGS. |

Where and how do I sign up?
Please carefully go through the following notices before signing up as an exhibitor in Indie House:
- 1. We will conduct a qualification screen to make sure two thing:
- a. You are indeed an independent game developer who needs every resource you can get.
The reason why Indie House is able to lay out a favorable pricing is because that the organizer bears partial expenses from the venue. This is to minimize the burden for indie devs with limited resources. In order to do that, we need to make sure that all applicants are indeed indie game developers, so that the resources directed to indie devs won’t be abused by big companies. The organizer reserves the right to interpret the definition of “indie game developers”. - b. Your game is ready to showcase with a playable demo.
We have to make sure that every exhibitor has a playable demo onsite. If you’re spending time and money to showcase without a playable demo, years of experiences tells us that the feedback will be next to nothing. This process is also to ensure the quality of the experiences for every visitor in Indie House.
- a. You are indeed an independent game developer who needs every resource you can get.
- 2. The result will be announced on Oct. 17 via Email. We can’t promise that every applicant will definitely get in. If you cannot accept this, please think twice before signing up.
- 3. GLHF! There’s a lot of fun stuff to do in Taipei!
