GAMA announced the Origins Awards today. For those of you not familiar with the Origins, they are the American version of the Spiel des Jahres, the German awards for best boardgames of the year. The Origins cover more categories than the Spiel, as RPG and miniatures rules and lines, as well as board and card games, qualify for Origins Awards, while the Spiel is only awarded to board and card games. Here is the list:
- Best Board Game/Game of the Year: Tiny Towns by AEG
- Best Card Game: Point Salad by AEG
- Best Family Game: The Quacks of Quedlinburg by North Star Game
- Digital Adaptation: Tsuro VR by Calliope Games / Thunderbox Entertainment Digital
