At Gamescom Latam 2024 in Sao Paulo, Brazil, "What the Car?" by Triband ApS secured the coveted "Best Mobile Game" award. This inaugural event, a collaboration with the BIG Festival, showcased Latin America's burgeoning gaming scene and celebrated global industry achievements. The awards ceremony featured 13 categories, with finalists selected by a 49-judge panel. Notably, all nominees were playable on the show floor, showcasing a seamless blend of mobile and PC titles.
The inclusion of mobile games alongside their PC counterparts underscores the growing significance of the mobile gaming market.
