Origins Awards Nominees Announced

I just saw on the Dice Tower News site that the Origins Awards nominees have now been announced.

In looking at the list, I see that I’ve played…all of two games in all the various categories put together (Terraforming Mars and World’s Fair 1893).

Thus, I can’t really comment on which games should or will win in their respective categories.

I will say, however, a hearty congratulations to Renegade Games and designer J. Alex Kevern for the Worlds Fair 1893 nomination in the Board Games category!

This is such a wonderful game that I could gush for hours on it (but I won’t…unless somebody ticks me off).

If you want to see me gush a little bit, you could check out my review of the game.

Renegade Games seems to have really come into its own this year, at least from what I’ve seen. This game, and two other games that I really want to play but haven’t had a chance to yet (Clank: A Deck-Building Adventure and Lotus) which were also nominated for awards, all of them are or sound wonderful.

Once again, congratulations to all who were nominated!

I’ll leave you with a Worlds Fair 1893 picture, just to once again showcase the beautiful artwork done for this fantastic game
