The Game Developers Choice Awards organizers today announced this year's recipients for its two special award categories, the Pioneer Award and the Lifetime Achievement Award.
This year's Pioneer Award will be granted posthumously to Mabel Addis, while the Lifetime Achievement Award will be given to John Romero.
The award organizers credit Addis as the first female game designer for her work on The Sumerian Game, a 1964 resource management game for elementary school students that used a teleprinter as an interface.
