The games:
Das Versteck des Meisters (Microsoft Windows 10+ App) by Stefan Hoffmann
Staub (Glulx) by IkeC
Der Turm des Hexenmeisters (HTML/JavaScript) by Carsten Pfeffer
Der Wildkatzberg (Commodore 64) by Juergen Popp
Die Zuschauer (Glulx) by Amanda Walker and Olaf Nowacki (translation)
I want to thank @OlafNowacki profusely for wanting to translate my game and for actually slogging through all that work and all my terrible programming to do it. Just finding a good German translation of the poem was a labor of love for him. I am so thrilled to see this game-- which is as much Olaf’s as mine now-- in the Grand Prix!
