Méwilo

Reception

This was one of the first games to win an award for artistic merit from outside the industry, a silver medal from the department of culture in Paris, France - due to the game’s exploration of French-Caribbean culture. The author, Muriel Tramis, used her own heritage as an African-Caribbean woman who grew up on the French-Caribbean island of Martinique, along with the help of another former Martinique resident, Patrick Chamoiseau, who was one of the founding figures of the black literary movement Créolité.
