Deutscher Spiele Preis


The Deutscher Spielepreis is an important award for boardgames. It was started in [|1990] by the German magazine Die Pöppel-Revue, which collects votes from the industry's stores, magazines, professionals and game clubs. The results are announced every October at the Spiel game fair in Essen, Germany. The Essen Feather is awarded at the same ceremony.
In contrast to the Spiel des Jahres, which tends to be awarded to family games, the DSP is awarded for "gamers' games" with particularly good or innovative gameplay. Although at one point it was not uncommon for the DSP and the SdJ to be awarded to the same game, since Carcassonne only two games have succeeded in winning both awards: Dominion in [|2009] and Azul in [|2018].
