- what car Won the Best Mobile Game Award at Gamescom Latam 2024.
- The awards were hosted in association with BIG Festival.
- All the nominees were playable on the show floor, with mobile happily mingling with PC.
Last week, the opening Gamescom Latum The event, held in Sao Paulo, Brazil, aimed to celebrate the industry worldwide as well as highlight Latin America’s growing presence in gaming. A part of it is included. Game Awards in partnership with BIG Festivalthe winners were announced during a grand presentation at the event.
There were 13 categories in total, with all finalists selected by a panel of 49 judges. All nominees were able to play at a large booth at the São Paulo Expo, unlikely to be missed by attendees. It’s nice to see mobile games mixed in with the PC nominees instead of being confined to their own section, as you might expect. Mobile is just as important, after all.
Of all these categories, naturally, we were most interested in the “Best Mobile Game” award, which ultimately went to Triband ApS ‘What the car? A worthy winner if you ask me. Our own Jupiter Headley previously covered the game in his article spotlighting ten amazing games you probably haven’t heard of, so it’s great to see it getting even more recognition. Available. Even if that means we may need to adjust the list if it becomes a household name.
But, what is a car? Walked away with the coveted award in the trunk, it’s still worth a shout out to the other nominees. They finally made it through the shortlist, so you can expect good quality experiences:
