The Independent Games Festival Awards 2022 are approaching, with the award ceremony that will take place within the GDC 2022, and in the meantime the candidate games to win prizes within the various categories planned for the event, with Inscryption and Unpacking dominating this year’s nominations.
Let’s see first of all thecomplete list of the candidates in the various award categories for the 2022 IGFs:
Seumas McNally Grand Prize
- Inscryption (Daniel Mullins Games)
- Unpacking (Witch Beam)
- Loop Hero (Four Quarters)
- The Eternal Cylinder (ACE Team)
- Cruelty Squad (Consumer Softproducts)
- Unsighted (Studio Pixel Punk)
Among the seven categories present, both Inscryption and Unpacking are the two games that recur the most, both being in the running for 4 titles and probably destined to emerge more than the others once the winners are announced.
On the other hand, these are two of the indie games of greater prominence emerged in 2021, deriving from the most genuine conception of independent production and also characterized by truly original concepts and structures.
In any case, there are really many deserving indie games released in the course of 2021, so it will be interesting to see which titles will win, but in the meantime this is already a selection to keep an eye on in order to possibly recover some indie titles that maybe we have escaped in the course of the year.
