Civilization rebuilding eurogame Revive and Uwe Rosenberg’s Oranienburger Kanal have triumphed in this year’s International Gamers Awards, a global board game award series which has been running since 1999.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Revive brought home the multiplayer award against stiff competition from popular games including Earth, which won the solo award category, Heat: Pedal to the Metal and this year’s Kennerspiel des Jahres winner Challengers!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The IGA is Revive’s first major board game award win, following nominations for the Golden Geek Heavy Game of the Year and the Goblin Magnifico heavy board gaming award.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The two-player award went to Rosenberg’s Oranienburger Kanal, which sees players square off against one another to build industries and transport links in 19th Century Brandenburg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Other nominees in the category included Undaunted: Battle of Britain, Splendor Duel and Wingspan Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The IGA Solo Award, a new title created in 2021 amid the ongoing rise in solo board gaming, saw nominations for Eleven, Legacy of Yu and Resist! alongside winner Earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Members of IGA’s 23-strong panel of voters include BoardGameGeek creator Scott Alden, Board Game Stats app co-author Suzan Vissering, and Takuya Ono, the administrator of Japanese board game information site Table Games in the World.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
