RULES OF THE KLASHWhile there aren’t a ton of rulings that need to be made during Kong Klash Events, we do have a few.
1. The Judge’s Word is FINAL!
2. No Sandbagging or Poor Sportsmanship
3. No Outbursts or Profanity
4. No Inappropriate Behavior
This is a positive event! We support each other, no matter how much the pressure is on. Everyone should be respectful and uplifting to their fellow players.
Last quarter drop for Friday night will be 11:00 PM. Saturday night will 10:00 PM.
FLUKE OR LUCK?We get it, sometimes you have a good day in the arcade and get an abnormally high score! But…can you do it 2 more times? If, as a Beginner Division Competitor, you consistently score three scores that are higher than 199,900, you will be required to advance into the Intermediate Division!
If you do happen to break that cap once during the competition as a beginner, you may move to intermediate by choice. However, if you break the score cap in Intermediate or Semi-Pro just once, you wil be required to move up the division ladder.
Once you break a division cap once, it’s only a matter of time before you do it again!
FEEDING THE KONGAs a Vortex Arcade tradition for Kong Klash, we will be serving all of our competitors Dinner and Snacks on Day One of the Competition.
Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner wil be served up for our competitors on Day Two!
We highly encourage everyone to stop by Friday evening around 5:00PM for a Meet-N-Greet and to enjoy the chill atmosphere at Vortex Arcade before the Klashing begins!
To conclude the barrel-smashing occasion, Sunday morning, breakfast will be served to anyone who is able to attend at 10am.
Registration will be open soon and can be done at

As we draw close to October, please keep your eyes peeled on the new Kong Klash website as we will reveal more registration details such as the fees, t-shirts, additional rules and important information.
