See, we were right to put it in our Top 100.
The Hugo Awards: they’re not just for science-fiction novels that make you think « I should read that one day » and never do. Now they’ve got an interactive category, so once a year you can be told how excellent one more videogame is, think « I should play that one day », and then never get around to that either.
This year the winner of the Best Game or Interactive Work category is Caves of Qud, a game we gave a score of 94% to back in December so you can keep that « if it’s so good how come I’ve never heard of it » comment to yourself.
Caves of Qud, pronounced « cud », is a roguelike so old-fashioned it’s barely got graphics, which fully simulates every NPC in its baffling world full of weirdos.
