Vuoden IGF-palkintojen (Independent Games Festival) finalistit on nyt paljastettu, ja mukana on myös Gamereactorin korkealle arvottamia indie-pelejä.
Kilpailu oli kovin tiukkaa tänä vuonna, koska jokaiseen kategoriaan mahtuu vain kuusi finalistia ja joukko kunniamainintoja, ja ehdokkaita oli sentään tarjolla yli 650 kappaletta.
Independent Games Festival pidetään Game Developers Conferencen rinnalla San Franciscossa maaliskuun 19. päivä.
