2010 Aggie Award nominees
Rules and Regulations
All staff nominations were submitted privately, seen and verified only by two awards administrators. Final voting follows the same procedure.
To be considered, a game must have had its first release in a major English language market in the calendar year 2010. Major markets include North America and the United Kingdom. Alternatively, any game first made available through digital distribution or self-published online during the year is also eligible.
For the sake of administrative simplicity, Blue Toad Murder Files, Doctor Who: The Adventure Games, and Sam & Max: The Devil’s Playhouse have been listed as a single entity.
