Million Games and Partners Shortlisted for MiGEA 2025 Awards
Million Games has been shortlisted in the Best Crash Game category at the Malta Gaming Excellence Awards (MiGEA) 2025 for its popular title Chicken X, launched earlier this year. The announcement marks a major milestone for the studio, known for its bold, player-first approach to game development.
Hosted on 19 June at the InterContinental in St. Julian, the MiGEA Awards celebrate the most impactful and original contributions to the gaming industry, spotlighting excellence in game development, technology, and innovation.
Chicken X, developed in-house by Million Games, invites players to guide a fearless chicken across a fast-moving highway in a high-volatility crash format. With its vibrant design, suspenseful pacing and sharp risk-reward balance, the game has quickly become a favourite among crash game enthusiasts.
In addition to its own nomination, Million Games is also celebrating two of its Million Stars partner studios,
both shortlisted in the Best Slot Game category:
Thorfinn’s Journey by Yugo Workshop – a visually rich, Norse-inspired slot featuring dynamic mechanics and narrative-driven gameplay.
Captain’s Curse by Black Cat Games – aa dark maritime adventure where a cursed fisherman transforms into a werewolf under the full moon, with free spins and collect features.
Notably, both studios have been shortlisted for their debut releases developed on the Million Games platform, making the recognition all the more significant.
“We launched the Million Stars programme to help brilliant developers bring bold ideas to life,” said Thomas Nimstad, CEO for Million Games. “Seeing Yugo Workshop and Black Cat Games earn nominations for their very first games is a proud moment for us — and a strong endorsement of the creative talent driving the Million Stars partners.”
Million Games will attend the MiGEA Awards ceremony on 19 June, joining a field of industry leaders and rising stars.
