Ticket to Ride Europe Wins 2005 IGA

The winners of this year's International Gamers Awards have been announced.

Ticket to Ride: Europe has won the multi-player category.

War of the Ring has won the two-player category.

Both of these are excellent games and well deserving of their respective awards.

Congratulations to Alan Moon, Days of Wonder, Francesco Nepitello, Marco Maggi, Roberto Meglio and Fantasy Flight Games.

It's interesting to note that TtR:E's victory in the multi-player category was an extremely narrow one. It just barely edged out several games including Shadows Over Camelot, Louis XIV, Reef Encounter, Antiquity, and Carcassonne The City. They had to result to several levels of tie breakers to resolve the voting. All of the rather confusing details can be found at http://www.internationalgamersawards.net.
