The Hall of Honor was established by the AGCA in 1994 to acknowledge those individuals, no longer living, who had contributed significantly in some way to the development of American games and/or to the game industry in the United States. These included company founders and presidents, manufacturers, inventors and designers, illustrators, promoters and agents, and the like. The award ceased after 1999 once the AGCA became the AGPC, when a new suite of awards was instituted.
