Google Play Awards 2024 Winners Announced: Surprises and Standouts
Google recently unveiled its prestigious Google Play Awards 2024, celebrating the year's top-performing apps, games, and books. While some winners were expected, others came as a pleasant surprise. Let's delve into the complete list of victors.
Game Category Highlights
The coveted title of "Best Game of the Year" went to AFK Journey, a fantasy RPG developed by Farlight and Lilith Games. Its expansive world, stunning visuals, and epic battles, featuring a large cast of characters, impressed the judges. The win is notable given the game's "Away From Keyboard" (idle) gameplay style.
Supercell's Clash of Clans secured the "Best Multi-Device Game of the Year" award, a testament to its successful expansion beyond mobile platforms to PCs and Chromebooks. This allows players to manage their clans, build armies, and raid villages seamlessly across various devices.
Other notable game wins include:
- Best Multiplayer Game: Squad Busters (Supercell)
- Best Pick Up & Play: Eggy Party (NetEase Games)
- Best Story: Solo Leveling: Arise (a somewhat surprising choice, given the game's story isn't universally praised).
- Best Indie Game: Yes, Your Grace (Brave at Night/Noodlecake) – a popular PC RPG that made a successful mobile debut.
- Best Ongoing Game: Honkai: Star Rail
- Best for Families: Tab Time World (Kids at Play)
- Best Google Play Games on PC: Cookie Run: Tower of Adventures
