Lucca Comics & Games hosts the “Game of the Year” and the “Best Role Playing Game” Awards. Both of them aim to become a point of reference for the entire gaming field, for distributors, and for Italian players. The jury will be composed of experts and communicators.
It is a new Award, born in 2013 from the fusion of two historical awards, the Best of Show and Agonistika News Game of the Year. The winners of last year are:
