IGA winners announced!

*RECIPIENTS OF THE 2018 INTERNATIONAL GAMERS AWARDS ANNOUNCED!*



The International Gamers Awards committee is extremely proud to announce
the recipients for the 2018 IGA in the General Strategy category:



In the multi-player category, the award goes to *Rajas of the Ganges*, the
creation of the award winning husband and wife design team of Markus and
Inka Brand and published by HUCH!  Rajas of the Ganges is set in 16th
century India when the great Mogul empire is emerging and conquering the
region.  Players represent powerful nobles who are gathering resources and
wealth, building fabulous estates and expanding their influence throughout
the territory.  Players cleverly use their dice and hope for a healthy dose
of karma in their attempt to become legendary rulers.



The award in the 2-player category goes to *Codenames: Duet* by designers
Vlaada Chvatil and Scott Eaton and published by Czech Games Edition.  The
game converts the popular and award winning game Codenames into a
cooperative two-player test of verbal acumen as players attempt to decipher
the identity of a word based on clever one-word clues.  Players cooperate
to successfully uncover their agents, while trying to avoid the dreaded
assassins.



The International Gamers Awards were founded in 1999 for the express
purpose of recognizing outstanding games, their designers, and the
companies which publish them.  The awards have gained widespread acclaim
and have helped bring these outstanding games to the public’s attention.



The individuals who serve on our General Strategy committee are extremely
qualified, knowledgeable and respected within the gaming hobby.  Each and
everyone have extensive experience in the playing, reviewing and critiquing
of games.
