The PAX 10 have been announced for the 2012 PAX West show in Seattle Washington taking place August 31st through September 2nd.
Each year a group of fifty industry experts select the ten best indie games in regard to gameplay and overall fun-factor. We at IGR are happy to see several titles we have enjoyed and reviewed in the past year make the list.
The Bridge was a particular favorite of ours at last year’s IndieCade 2011 show in Culver City where we saw a beautiful looking demo and also covered PAX 10 selection Johann Sebastian Joust, and Deity and Containment: A Zombie Puzzler were standouts that we covered later in the year.
