Games for Change, a leading progressive voice in gaming, spent 2023 getting into tabletops. Now it's back for summer convention with the Games for Change festival in New York City, held this year from June 27 to 28. It will also award the second annual Best Board or Table Game Award to Impact. Polygon has an exclusive look at the exceptional finalists, plus details on an extraordinary panel hosted by yours truly.
"We made the decision last year to expand our programming and award category to include […] analog games to the festival for the first time," said Games for Change president Susanna Pollack. "I feel like this is something that has been [asked for] for years, and we felt that the momentum and enthusiasm had grown so much that we would be really remiss to ignore the demand."
