All days: Fun online on the AppGallery Discord channel!
Huawei Lucky Draw was probably one of the most anticipated moments during those four days. Every day there was a huge crowd waiting in line to chat with a moderator on the stage, and, of course, spin the wheel and win exciting Huawei prizes!
Fortunately, for those who didn’t have enough luck to win during the event, we prepared a special Discord channel dedicated to Gamescom attendees. After joining, they had a chance to spin the wheel again and get devices from Huawei or AppGallery coupons. That was just one of Discord’s advantages, as from then they joined the united community of gamers, with an opportunity to gain new friends and discuss and play their favourite games together.
AppGallery Discord campaign was a huge success, with 1000+ users joining the channel during the four days of Gamescom.
Huge success during the AppGallery Game Fest campaign
The end of August also marked the end of AppGallery’s ongoing Game Fest 2023 campaign. The over-month-long spectacle offered enticing coupons worth up to 100% off up for grasp. Fans who couldn’t make it down to Gamescom 2023 could still take part in the fun of it all by indulging in the discounts on some of their favourite games. Popular titles such as Viking Rising, Land of Empires, Doomsday and more offered further discounts of up to 30% off on in-game purchases.
AppGallery saw a great response with a remarkable tally of over 16,000 redemptions. Furthermore, the campaign extended beyond Huawei users as the platform saw a surge in signups from Android users. Due to the inclusive nature of AppGallery, Android users simply had to follow 3 simple steps to successfully create their accounts. Game Fest 2023, reminds the gaming community of what more AppGallery offers apart from the top gaming titles.

Bridging the gap between functional hardware and considered design, Phantum debuts its first line of high-performance mousepads. The collection is built for users who demand precision but won’t compromise on aesthetics. Developed in Paris by founders Amine G. and Victor B., the mousepads combine minimalist design with carefully selected materials and collectible elements, positioning the product as a functional tool and a design object.
Created for gamers and digital creatives, Phantum’s mousepads emphasize tactile performance while remaining visually restrained. The surfaces are crafted using Japanese Poron and advanced fabrics chosen for their durability, responsiveness, and sensory qualities. Each product is designed to enhance, not distract from, the overall composition of a desk setup.
The company’s visual language draws on space, transparency, and disappearance themes, an intentional move to create objects that integrate flawlessly into a work or play environment. “Every detail reflects our DNA: clean, sharp, and futuristic,” said co-founder Amine G., whose tech-focused YouTube channel, MRG TECH, has built a following of over 200,000 subscribers. “We create tools that disappear under the hand but leave a lasting impression through design, feel, and finish.”
Phantum’s founders launched the brand after finding few products that met their standards for both performance and design integrity. The debut line is only the beginning: the team is developing glass mousepads and matching performance sleeves, with plans to expand into a broader ecosystem of desk essentials. Each new release will continue to feature collectible packaging designed to add narrative value rather than act as decoration.
Though recently launched, Phantum is already drawing attention beyond France, particularly in Latin America, where design-conscious gamers have begun to integrate the mousepads into their setups. The first collection is now available on phantum.co, with new formats and accessories to follow.
