Privates wins BAFTA award

28 November 2011

Microsoft may not have approved this quirky, sex-education game for distribution on Xbox Live, but the British Academy of Film and Television Arts sure approved of it.

The game, which sees players venturing deep into human nether regions in a comical (rather than explicit) way, has earned itself its very own BAFTA award.

Zombie Cow studios founder, Dan Marshal, said he was “brimming with pride” at the announcement.

“It’s a complete honour and a total shock,” he wrote in a statement. “I was excited enough about being able to start all my press releases from now on with the words BAFTA-nominated, but winning one is a whole other level.

“I can’t thank BAFTA enough for honouring a tiny studio who made a weird little game. It was a great night, and I’m brimming with pride. To stagger home with one of those oh-so-familiar shiny metal face awards is so surreal, and completely magical.”

You can play Privates for free on PC here. Check out the game’s trailer below.
