The Event

The Vietnam Indie Games Awards will be streamed live on Thursday, December 11, 2025. This is the first indie game awards ceremony in history in Vietnam.

The Awards Process

Nominees for most categories of Indie Games VN are chosen by a jury panel consisting of industry experts, reputable tech/game news outlets, and influencers in Vietnam, selected based on their history of objective game evaluation.

Specialized juries will also be convened for other specific categories. Each jury member completes a confidential, unranked ballot, listing their top 5 choices in each category.

Ballots are tabulated, and the 5 games appearing on the most ballots become official Nominees.

The Indie Games VN organizers do not participate in voting for nominees or winners to ensure fairness.
