History[edit]

International Gaming Awards List

In 2004 the mobile games industry was still finding its feet. As developers began carving out a space in the market, the French division of Discreet announced the first 'International 3D Mobile Gaming Competition.'^[1] With over $50,000 of prizes to be won, the contest was designed by NCC Partners CEO Maarten Noyons to help showcase young mobile games and was supported by Nokia, Orange, Intel, IBM and more.^[2]

With 85 entries, the awards took place on the 3 February 2004, at the IMAGINA festival in Monte Carlo. There were four categories: Grand Prix, 16MB, 1MB, 200K/native, and 200K/Java. Later that year, Discreet was acquired by Autodesk who decided to close the French office - and thus the competition. However, Noyons convinced Discreet to let him take full control of the event and in doing so he founded IMGA as it's known today.^[3]

Renaming the event the International Mobile Gaming Awards, Noyons has grown IMGA into a worldwide competition. Each year, the awards now receive around 1,000 submissions, 600 of which are usually submitted to the jury. Over a two-day judging process, the entrants are whittled down to 60 nominees.^[4]

For ten years the winners were announced at the GSMA's Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, but the 11th IMGA saw the ceremony moved to GDC in San Francisco,^[5][6][7] during the Game Developers Conference and Game Connection.

In 2016, the competition added a new category for VR games^[8] and announced 102 nominations and 11 categories.^[9] Sam Barlow (UK) won the Grand Prix with Her Story, a detective game.^[10]

After Europe and the US, the IMGA has launched its program in China and Southeast Asia creating two additional competitions: IMGA Southeast Asia^[11] in partnership with Malaysia Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC) and IMGA China^[12] in partnership with Migu – China Mobile's digital content entity, and co-hosted by MyGamez,^[13] a publisher for foreign mobile games in China.

Award Categories[edit]

The awards celebrate innovation and creativity in mobile games worldwide. Based on their merit, games are recognized in a variety of categories that are decided on by the jury, when they meet each year for the judging process.
