  • Excellence in Innovation, given to the games that utilize technology or gameplay in new and exciting ways.
  • Excellence in Visuals, for the games that went above and beyond in the graphics department.
  • Excellence in Gameplay, an award that celebrates the games whose core game mechanics kept us coming back for more and didn’t allow us to put the game down.
  • Excellence in Storytelling, for the stories that pulled us in beyond the gameplay itself.
  • Best Social Game, the game we keep playing with our friends or through social networks.
  • Best Serious Game, for titles where a game was used to bring attention to a specific topic or brought gaming mechanics to an activity or learning process. These could be educational, historical, political, or even health focused.
