Huawei AppGallery Awards 2024: Celebrating Five Years of App 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 may set a high benchmark, the Huawei AppGallery Awards, celebrating their fifth anniversary, 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 distinct 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

Beyond the Usual Suspects

Some of the choices might differ from personal preferences, reflecting a potential bias towards Western titles with strong fanbases in other award ceremonies. The Huawei AppGallery Awards, however, appear to favor games released in other regions. This diversity is refreshing and highlights the global reach of the mobile gaming market. With the rise of alternative app stores, the Huawei AppGallery Awards are poised to gain even greater recognition.
