Translating to "enveloped" in German, the game arrived on the scene in early 2024, quickly becoming the ultimate must-play for gamers, with over four million players on the Steam platform.
In 2017, Keen Games stole the limelight with their role-playing game "Portal Knights," which was named the best game at the German Computer Game Award.
The Showers of Cash Prizes
The German Computer Game Award boasts a staggering total of 800,000 euros. Contenders for the best game included Megagon Industries' exhilarating skiing racing game "Lonely Mountains: Snow Riders" and Grizzly Games' "Thronefall," where players take on the challenge of island survival, fortifying a kingdom against nightly attacks. Both studios took home a consolation reward of 30,000 euros for their nominations.
"Thronefall" went on to score the best game design category, pocketing an extra 40,000 euros. Megagon Industries, the creative minds behind "Lonely Mountains," earned the title of "Studio of the Year," reaping 50,000 euros in prize money.
Berlin's mayor, Kai Wegner (CDU) and Germany's research minister, Dorothee Bär (CSU) each graced the event with their presence, expressing their admiration for the industry and offering their support.
The serious game category belonged to Munich-based studio, Reality Twist with their political exploration title "Deine Stimme" (Your Voice). The game examines the ill effects of populism on society, generating a chilling reflection of the state of the world. The creative director, Sebastian Grünwald, gleamed with pride upon accepting the 40,000 euro prize. Asked about the inspiration behind the game's topic, he replied, "It ain't rocket science, mate—just take a gander at the world. It's not hard to be an autocrat these days."
