Huawei AppGallery Awards 2024: Celebrating Five Years of Innovation

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 set a high bar for mobile game recognition, the Huawei AppGallery Awards, celebrating their fifth anniversary, offer a unique perspective.

Summoners War claimed the coveted Game of the Year award, setting the tone for a lineup of less conventional winners compared to other award shows. Here's a glimpse at the other notable accolades:

• 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 might differ from personal preferences, reflecting a potential bias in other award shows towards Western titles with established fanbases. The Huawei AppGallery Awards, however, showcase a broader range of games from global markets. This diversity is a welcome addition to the mobile gaming awards landscape. With the rise of alternative app stores, the Huawei AppGallery Awards are poised to gain even greater recognition.
