darkpact asked: As you try to bring German culture nearer to the rest of the world, you should also talk about the gaming culture. Spiel Essen is the biggest consumer game-fair in the world. Every year 150.000 players visit the show, and it contains no computer games.

In Germany over 500 board and card games are released with more than 80% targeted at families and older players (age 16+).

The Spiel des Jahres the most prestigous game award in the world has just been announced for this year (today at 10:54) and the winner is: Dixit.

The Game has already wan game of the year in france in 2009. For more infos I suggest taking a look at the offical website from the jury: http://www.spiel-des-jahres.com/cms/front_content.php
