And Your Amnesia Fortnight 2026 Winner Is...
Actually, before we announce it, we just want to express another huge thanks to everyone who has backed, tried out our demos, and generally shown us support in the last few months. It has been both an exciting and trying time for Team Double Fine and we truly couldn't have made it through without you all. A particularly special shoutout to everyone who has sent an encouraging message on Discord, comment on Kickstarter, or on any of our socials.
Now, for what you all have been waiting for... the winning game!
It was a close race, and each game had its staunch supporters.
We tabulated carefully.
Multiplied even more carefully.
Carried the one (probably, I don't know, I didn't do the math).
And the winner is...

🛡️PLOT ARMOR🛡️! ! ! !
A huge congratulations to Team Plot Armor for their hard work, to Lauren Scott for her excellent leadership, and to you all for picking an amazing winner!
And another huge congrats to Team Architactics, Team Bard Crawl, and Team Uprise for creating full, playable demos in just two weeks of work, and making sure that there was no wrong choice for voters, just preference. 🧡 We hope you all had as much fun playing these demos as we had making them!
If your favorite game didn't win (maybe didn't even make the top four!), that's okay! Because you never know with an Amnesia Fortnight pitch-- sometimes, they end up becoming full games later, like Stacking. Sometimes, they get reconfigured and implemented in other games, like how The Gods Must Be Hungry turned into Psychonauts 2's Compton's Cookoff. And, with the creation of Double Fine Action Labs, maybe a publisher or a rich investor** will call us up and insist we work on your favorite fun-sized game!
**If you know any rich investors or publishers looking for cool game ideas to fund, we're assuming you've already told them about us. They're probably writing us an email right now saying they love indie games and want to bankroll a baker's dozen of these pitches. We look forward to their message!
The team will start to work on the final winner soon, and (if we can snag them) we'll keep you updated on their progress as the game develops!
Until then, don't forget to join us on Discord to discuss the results!
