The Ultimate Trick or Treat Game Awards 2024 (UTOTG Awards 2024)




About The Ultimate Trick or Treat Game Awards

At the UTOTG Awards, we celebrate our love for all things horror in gaming. From spine-chilling thrills to delightfully eerie experiences, we aim to support and honor the Sweetest (and Scariest) Games of the Year. Whether it’s a hidden indie gem or a blockbuster AAA title, every game that evokes the thrill of Halloween deserves recognition.

It’s just the beginning for these awards, so there’s no authority or grandeur to boast about yet. But we hope our winners find extra joy, knowing their work has been celebrated and appreciated through these awards.

For fairness, we do not accept advertising fees from developers or publishers. To maintain our spooky integrity, we do not publicly share our contact information, as it is unnecessary for the awards process. All ratings are conducted in secret, spooky, and somber ways. (૭ ᐕ)૭
