Lumpy
Space Princess is on the verge of a dating disaster, and it’s up to
Comic-Con 2014 attendees to help her avoid it! Cartoon Network
Enterprises, the licensing and merchandising arm of the television
network, today unveiled plans for the 2014 Adventure Time ConQuest,
which will take place during Comic-Con® International: San Diego. 2014
marks the third consecutive year that the network has held the ConQuest
experience for Adventure Time fans, which has become a
fan-favorite activity that leads fans throughout the convention to check
out the latest licensed products based on the brand. This year’s epic
quest will once again dole out secret text-messaged clues to
participants that will guide them on their journey across the convention
floor in an attempt to find a suitable bachelor for Lumpy Space
Princess to take to the Princess Day Ball.
To participate in the Adventure Time ConQuest,
