Betrayal At Club Low wins IGF Grand Prize – Rock Paper Shotgun

Cosmo D's surreal pizza adventure also picked up the Nuovo Award
Cosmo D’s surreal night club RPG Betrayal At Club Low was 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 of nominations, 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 excellent The Case Of The Golden Idol, proving that, yep, once again the RPS Advent Calendar is 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, Potionomics won 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 Forest Quartet and 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 actually had my eye on RPG Time for 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.

Katharine Castle
Editor-in-chief
Katharine is RPS’ editor-in-chief, which means she’s now to blame for all this. After joining the team in 2017, she spent four years in the RPS hardware mines. Now she leads the RPS editorial team and plays pretty much anything she can get her hands on. She’s very partial to JRPGs and the fetching of quests, but also loves strategy and turn-based tactics games and will never say no to a good Metroidvania.
