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 undoubtedly set a high benchmark, 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 this year's awards, showcasing a selection that diverges significantly from more conventional accolades.
Here's a breakdown of the other notable winners:
- 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
A Global Perspective
Some of the choices are certainly unconventional, a point worth considering. Our own awards often lean towards Western titles with dedicated fan bases. In contrast, the Huawei AppGallery Awards seem to highlight games popular in other regions, reflecting a broader global market.
This diversity is a positive development, particularly with the increasing prominence of alternative app stores. The Huawei AppGallery Awards are likely to gain further recognition as a result.
