“Harry Potter: Puzzles and Spells” in the Running for Google Play Users’ Choice Award 2020

by Aly Kirk · November 18, 2020

Almost a month ago, Zynga released Harry Potter: Puzzles and Spells. The match-three game has captivated gamers with the details, story, and gameplay.

Now, the game has been nominated for the 2020 Google Play Users’ Choice Game Award. Players themselves will vote for the winner of the award from a list of nominees.

— Harry Potter: Puzzles & Spells (@HPPuzzlesSpells) November 18, 2020

 

Puzzles and Spells isn’t the only game that’s been getting attention this year. Nine other games have been nominated for the Google Play Users’ Choice Game Award:

  • Arknights
  • Cell to Singularity – Evolution Never Ends
  • Disney Sorcerer’s Arena
  • EverMerge
  • Genshin Impact
  • Grand Hotel Mania
  • Legends of Runeterra
  • The Seven Deadly Sins: Grand Cross
  • SpongeBob: Krusty Cook-Off

Many of these games have been out for months and have stellar download numbers. Cell to Singularity – Evolution Never Ends, Genshin Impact, and SpongeBob: Krusty Cook-Off have all been downloaded more than ten million times each while Harry Potter: Puzzles and Spells has been downloaded over five million times.

Hundreds of thousands of players have already made their opinions known with reviews of all the games. All ten apps hold between 4.2 and 4.8 ratings on Google Play, which isn’t surprising in the least. It also isn’t surprising that Puzzles and Spells has the highest rating among the nominees with a 4.8 out of 5 stars.

Given the numbers, it’s hard to say who could win the Google Play Users’ Choice Game Award of 2020. We’ll have to wait until voting ends to find out, of course.

There is still time to pick your favorite app. Voting is open through November 23, so go online and show your support! What game will you vote for this year?

Potter Quote

“When we come face-to-face with one down a dark alley, we’re going to be having a look to see if its solid, aren’t we, we’re not going to be asking, ‘Excuse me, are you the imprint of a departed soul?’”
