In honouring PRELOADED, Games For Change said;
“Over the past 25 years, PRELOADED has left an indelible mark on the industry, becoming a leading example of the power and impact of independent game studios. Their innovative approach to creating meaningful, interactive experiences that blend education, culture, and social good, grounded in the principle of playing with purpose, has set a high standard for how games can be both entertaining and transformative. Through partnerships and collaborations, PRELOADED challenges others to expand the ways people connect, play, and engage with everything from historical sites to beloved virtual worlds.”
