January 2023 Game Awards

#JakeReviewsItch Game of the Month Archives

Around here, the start of a new month brings an important tradition that I'm making up right now: Stealing game award categories from old magazines or Web sites, and then giving those awards to the Itch.io games I reviewed over the last month. I think it's going to be a very hot feature.

This month's plagiarism is brought to you by the 2001 Nintendo Power Awards (minus platform-specific categories like "Best Nintendo GameCube Graphics"), found in volume 156, pages 116-123.

A Good Snowman Is Hard to Build

by Draknek & Friends and Benjamin Davis

Genre: Puzzle

Pitch: Build snowmen in a winter-y blend of Sokoban and Tower of Hanoi.

My expectations: I've played a little bit of this. I didn't stick with it, but I don't remember disliking anything about it. I suppose I enjoy Sokoban-likes as much as the next person. I expect this will be above average for its genre—a mild kind of head-scratching fun.
