The Video Game Critics Festival (VIGMA) is coming

The Video Game Critics Festival, VIGMA for short, will be held with the collaboration of the specialist games media and with the support of the Iran Computer and Video Games Foundation.

Planned for Esfand (February to March), the event will include, alongside the festival and the choice of the best games of the year, specialist conferences on game development and panels where experience is shared.

The aim is for the country's leading experts and game developers to share their experience with their peers and with everyone interested.

The core of the Video Game Critics Festival is formed by the media outlets Bazi-Center, Bazinameh, Bazinama, Donya-ye-Bazi, Zoomg, GameNews and Vigiato. As at many specialist festivals around the world, it is the field's specialist critics who evaluate and judge; VIGMA brings critics together to judge the best games made in the country over the past year and choose the best of them.

More information on the schedule, the call for entries, the jury and more will be announced soon.
