I'm excited to share an update about Octopus' Garden, the winner of the 2010 Canadian Game Design Award. Rik & Torben, the guys behind Valley Games were kind enough to pass along some files and images for their upcoming release. While we don't have a release date just yet, we do have some images and a rule set for those of you curious about the game.First up, the beautiful cover art by artist Mark Poole along with the prominently displayed logo for the CGDA! Gorgeous!
Rik & Torben also provided a rule set, which has the same gorgeous art and layout as the cover art. If you weren't one of the lucky ones to try this game when it was a prototype, I urge you to download the rules and familiarize yourself with this great family game.
I personally can't wait to see this out on the shelves and look forward to seeing all future CGDA Winners & Finalists get similar treatment and exposure. Hope this inspires the creatives out there to submit their designs for the 2012 CGDA!
