A little late with this news but the winners of the 2012 Origin Awards are out.
We see a good mix of winners with 18XX and Gamma World being added to the Hall of Fame. Two companies won two awards. Care to guess which?
One was Wizards of the Coast – winning for Best Collectable Card Game or Expansion and for Best Board Game. Surprised? The other was Catalyst Game Labs for Best Game Accessory and Best Miniatures Rules or Expansion.
