The 15th IMGA Global: A Blast!

The 15th IMGA Global: A Blast!

The Minna Gallery in San Francisco on March 19th… The 15th IMGA Global was hosted by our dearest Maude Garrett. During this award ceremony, we have revealed the best games of 2018, splitting all 153 nominees into 16 categories. Varying from Best Technical Achievement to Best Guilty Pleasure Game, so you know we take all aspects of mobile gaming into consideration.


It was a great evening, with amazing people and amazing vibes everywhere. The tickets were sold out, and around 700 people showed up. Maarten Noyons, the founder of the IMGA, opened the ceremony with a small speech. Afterward, our amazing host Maude took over and the reveal of winners started.

As the Minna Gallery was filling up with people, the doors for the happy hour opened at 6 pm. It was an opportunity for everyone to meet up,  chat up and have drinks! It’s not a party without a little socializing and networking, right? 😉


Around 7pm the award ceremony started with Maarten his speech. Maude took over and the awards were handed out by our sponsors, and the second judging session’s jury members.
