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 might set a high bar for mobile game accolades, 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. Here's a glimpse at the other categories:
- 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

Beyond the App Store's Usual Suspects
Some of the choices are certainly unconventional, reflecting a potential bias towards games popular outside Western markets. This contrasts with the Pocket Gamer Awards, which often favor Western titles with dedicated fanbases. The Huawei AppGallery Awards highlight a global perspective, showcasing the diverse landscape of mobile gaming.
The rise of alternative app stores makes the Huawei AppGallery Awards increasingly significant. Their recognition of titles from different regions adds valuable diversity to the mobile gaming awards scene.
