Cosmo D’s surreal pizza adventure also picked up the Nuovo Award
Cosmo D’s surreal night club RPGBetrayal At Club Lowwas the big winner at tonight’s IGF Awards, picking up both the Seumas McNally Grand Prize and the Nuovo Award. It was one of this year’s frontrunners in terms ofnominations, winning all but one of the awards it was up for this year. The other nomination was for Excellence In Design, which went to the also excellentThe Case Of The Golden Idol, proving that, yep, once again theRPS Advent Calendaris at the forefront of great indie taste-making. Here’s the full list of winners from tonight’s event.
Finally, in addition to all these awards,Potionomicswon the Audience Award this year. This was open to every game that was nominated this evening, which means it beat all 33 other finalists to the punch. Quite an achievement!
I’m also glad to see a couple of winners on here that we haven’t had a chance to write about at RPS just yet, such as Slider,The ForestQuartetand RPG Time: Legend Of Wright. Slider isn’t quite out yet, admittedly, but you can bet it’s going straight onto my Steam wishlist after tonight. The Forest Quartet, meanwhile, squeaked out right at the tail end of December last year, and I actuallyhad my eye on RPG Timefor ages and then never quite got round to reviewing it (although it’s definitely still on my to play pile, I swear). In any case, I’ll be scouring the GDC showfloor to give them a go later this week, so watch out for more thoughts on them then.
