Sixty titles created in Europe, Japan and South Korea that will give you a breath of fresh air as well as many hours of fun: they are very good games to download.

Google is used to promoting the options within its Play Store with different contests and initiatives that promote the development of quality software. Every year it awards the prizes with the best of the Android store, for instance. And it maintains a game contest aimed at those who create the most value in the environment of new mechanics and settings: the indie community. This 2022 Indie Games Festival is in the final stretch.

The Indie Games Festival is about to announce the winners. For now, we already know what the twenty finalist games representing Europe, Japan and South Korea, Google has made them known on its official website. And most of these titles can now be downloaded directly to your mobile.

Indie games are characterized by a greater risk in the themes that surround the plots, they tend to bet on riskier game mechanics and, in general, provide greater freshness to the panorama gaming. With some awards that boost the indie community, Google tries to get these developers to bet firmly on Android as their preferred devices.
