Gimmick Awards 2025 – Best Emergent Moment Podcast
The phrasing on this category was tricky. What is an Emergent Moment? Basically, it's to distinguish from a Narrative Moment- our category tomorrow. Rather than scripted, hand-tailored moments, these are moments that occur, or occurred, naturally as a result of the way things have been set up- either in a game or in the world.
The Nominees Are:
Baby's First Death Trap (Android: Netrunner)
Tile Hog (Aotenjo: Infinite Hands)
Virtua Fighter 5 Grand Finals (Combo Breaker 2025)
Your First Monorail-only Delivery (Death Stranding 2: On the Beach)
Sit Back and Let the Points Roll In (Demonic Mahjong)
Reading a book (The Friends of Ringo Ishikawa)
Perfecting a Wave (The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy)
"I Don't Play This Game." (Combo Breaker 2025)
Switch Games Feeling Playable Again (Switch 2)
Ten Heads In A Row (Unfair Flips)
Picross Fever (Picross)
Accidentally Eracing Yourself (Shadow of Memories)
Infinite Chaos Control (Shadow the Hedgehog)
Our intro and outro music for the Gimmick Awards 2024 is Lay back by Kazuki Kaneko, and our art is a commission from GOMA on Bluesky. That's last year's art, we'll have new art for this year soon, so please look forward to that!
