Two German studios, Slow Bros. and Food for Thought Media, won at the gamescom latam Big Festival Awards. The main category went to Chants of Sennaar from Rundisc and Focus Entertainment.

These were the first ever gamescom latam BIG Festival Awards, and of the numerous nominations with GSA participation, two German studios were able to celebrate in the end. Harold Halibut from Slow Bros. came out on top in the Best Art category. Sibel's Journey from Food for Thought Media won the category BIG Festival Impact Diversity. A great success for the Berliners, even though they were nominated four times in total, including in one of the main categories, Best Mobile Game. This, however, went to What the Car? by Triband ApS.

Chants of Sennaar received the most important award for Best Game, which was nominated with 5000 Brazilian Real. It was developed by Rundisc and published by Focus Entertainment.
