The Game Beyond Entertainment Award will be awarded to celebrate games that have a profound social impact. An official statement from BAFTA explains that the category will award the best game that capitalises on the unique and maturing medium of games to deliver a transformational experience beyond pure entertainment - whether that is to raise awareness through empathy and emotional impact, to engage with real world problems, or to make the world a better place. While BAFTA has long been rewarding these games for their creative excellence, entries in this new category will be judged solely on content: its emotional impact, thematic fit and innovative use of the medium to explore and deliver impactful messages.http://www.bafta.org/games/features/power-of-games-beyond-entertainment The Power of Games Beyond Entertainment 19 October 2017 Nominations On 21 February 2018, it was announced that Tim Schafer, founder of Double Fine Productions, would be awarded the Fellowship award, the highest honour BAFTA can bestow.http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2018-02-21-this-years-bafta-fellowship-award-goes-to This year's BAFTA Fellowship award goes to...
