The 2024 Huawei AppGallery Awards have concluded, revealing some unexpected winners that are sure to generate buzz among mobile gaming enthusiasts. While the Pocket Gamer Awards may set a high bar for mobile game accolades, the Huawei AppGallery Awards, now in their fifth year, offer a compelling alternative perspective.
Summoners War's victory as Game of the Year sets the tone for the awards, highlighting a departure from typical winners. Here's a breakdown of the other noteworthy awards:
- Best Action Game: PUBG Mobile
- Best RPG Games: Hero Wars: Alliance, Epic Seven
- Best SLG Games: Evony: The King's Return, World of Tanks Blitz
- Best Family Games: Candy Crush Saga, Gardenscapes
- Best Trending Games: Mecha Domination: Rampage, Tokyo Ghoul: Break the Chains
Beyond the App Store's Usual Suspects
Some of the choices are certainly unconventional. It's worth noting that our own awards often favor Western titles with strong fan bases. In contrast, the Huawei AppGallery Awards appear to showcase games from a broader global landscape.
This diversity is a positive development, especially with the rise of alternative app stores. The Huawei AppGallery Awards are likely to gain further recognition as a result.
