It has been a fantastic year for adventure gamers. Believe it or not (okay, we believe it), 2023 delivered over 250 new adventures, which makes selecting the best of the best in every category quite a challenge.

Many thanks to the hard-working, creative developers who have brought us hundreds of games to experience, savor, perplex, astound, amuse, and remind us of why we game. Readers and staff have compared, contrasted, and chosen winners from this treasure trove, and the Aggie Awards will now make their annual appearance!

So sit back, take a deep anticipatory breath, and be prepared to be surprised and inspired as the 2023 revelations commence.

Drum roll please, the curtain rises, and the audience applauds…the Aggie Awards.
