Congrats to @czechgames.com @heidelbaer.de @frostedgames.bsky.social @pegasusspiele.bsky.social @burntislandgames.bsky.social and all the nominees!

A smiling man wearing a black t shirt featuring SETI in white letters and an orange radio telescope. He holds a copy of the SETi board game in his left hand and a golden award in his right, shaped like octopus tentacles holding a box. Behind him is a large banner which says SETI and CGE. Tomas Holek, designer of Deutscher Spiele Preis-winning board game SETI.

Four men smile as they show off identical awards in different colours: golden, silver, bronze and rainbow. The awards are all shaped like octopus tentacles holding up a cube. This year's winners of the Deutscher Spiele Preis German board game awards.

After 13 years as first a contract writer, then a salaried writer, then a lead writer, then a senior writer at InXile Entertainment, I have been laid off. I had a great time while I was there, and I am sad to go, but as they say, every ending is a new beginning, so here's me, beginning again.
