Check out the complete list of games below:

Contest Winner: Zombomination
In Zombomination, every game is a desperate fight for survival. Zombies swarm the city, hungry for flesh and brains, while Humans scavenge for scraps. Is this really living? Will the Humans just settle in their Safehouse to live one day at a time? Or will they risk it all to destroy the Laboratory and end the Zombie infestation? Will the Zombies end the Human race?

Every time we got this game out around family and friends a crowd would form. The rapid play meant that lots of people jumped in and had their hand at the game. It is one of our favorite real time games and really fits the feel of running from the Zombies. The panic is real and feels so thematic. - Contest Judge Patrick McNeil, McMeeple Games

Second Place: Mine Your Own Business
When in the business of gem mining, one must find, forge and polish their gems into their most valuable form. However, it doesn’t end with the dirt of the mines, or the cutting room floor - business is cutthroat and those that wish to survive must learn to evaluate trends and even manipulate the market to their own advantage.

One of the most amazing thing about this game is the clever ways the systems interconnect. The way you can manipulate mines, items in the market, value of gems at the end of the game, priority of colors and so on is just fantastic. As a more sophistiated gamer I really enjoyed this one. The theme and the art were really spot on and made the game very appealing. Finally, we loved the shift that happens where players go from building their golem engine to creating and polishing gems. This really let players set the tempo of the game and was really amazing to see in such a small package. - Contest Judge Patrick McNeil, McMeeple Games

Third Place: Pizza Pronto
At Pizza Pronto, we work together to craft the finest - and only - pizza slices in town for our loyal customers. Roll a pair of dice for each customer to see what they want and when they want it. Roll one die for each type of ingredient - pepperoni, pineapple, onion, and anchovy - to see how much you can put on the pizza. When a customer arrives for pick up, they get their slice, no matter how it looks. If it matches their order, the customer is happy, and we get paid! If it's missing an ingredient or has any wrong ingredients on there, they're not so happy, and we don't get any money! It's tough, but it's the Pronto family way...

The design of this game is beautiful, and the various systems within the game are very effectivly used. The theme really leaps out of this game and the mechanics strongly reinforce it. We kept joking that we were careless teens in the kitchen slapping together pizzas (hence all the mistakes). The combination of chaos you could control and chaos you could mitigate made the game a great success. It actually worked really well as a solo game. - Contest Judge Patrick McNeil, McMeeple Games
