Betrayal at Club Low just won the Seumas Mcnally Award at the 2023 Independent Games Festival Awards, beating out some great competition from Immortal, Neon White, Off-Broadcast, The Case of the Golden Idol, and The Robe.
It joins a star-studded collection of indie greats like Her Tales, The Wilderness, Minecraft, and Return of Obradin. The ceremony takes place ahead of the Developers’ Choice Awards, which will announce their own winners later today.
