Games awards are the biggest awards for video games that exist, but they are not the only ones. Many other places maintain their own prize. In fact, a lot of them do it much longer than they are awards to play. One of the examples of this is the awards that the Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences, or Aias, briefly, for the sake of every year.
The Academy of Interactive Arts and Sciences may not sound familiar to you, but they are those behind the cubes awards. This year, their 28th year is a prize for Dice, and they have announced the winners today. Unfortunately for Nintendo, they won nothing. Balatro and Astro Bot, however, took a lot of awards home.
