Animazement Mystery Wheel ~ Big Team Battle: After 4-years, the Wheel of Fate is (Re)Turning! Split between 2-teams, players will face off in a series of 1-on-1 games decided by the spin of the Mystery Wheel: Winner stays on, loser is replaced by the next person on their team who spins the wheel, and the cycle begins anew. Last team standing wins the battle! If the winning team has more than one player left, we'll run exhibition matches until everyone has played.

Animazement Mystery Tournament 5: This being the 5th anniversary of the Animazement Mystery tournament series, we've upped the event to a full 32-person, double elimination bracket! Every round is a different 1-on-1 versus game; from forgotten classics to kusoge jank, if it has a versus mode, it's fair game! Expect weirdness and embrace the chaos!
