Korea's Mobile Content conference is held annually to help facilitate networking and the exchange of information on mobile content, but it also celebrates and honours achievements in game, music and video, information and community.

Sketcher 2 from ZIO Interactive was announced as the winner of the Mobile Content 2008 Best Game award yesterday, while AvaPeeps by Digital Chocolate landed the Most Innovative Content award.

Sketcher 2 has yet to filter through to the West, though the first game picked up a bronze award on Pocket Gamer last June, and Pocket Gamer.biz took a look at D-Choc's new social gaming plans with Trip Hawkins a couple of weeks back.

Congratulations to both, and keep an eye on Pocket Gamer for more coverage of these titles as they filter through.

Yes. Spanner's his real name, and he's already heard that joke you just thought of. Although Spanner's not very good, he's quite fast, and that seems to be enough to keep him in a regular supply of free games and away from the depressing world of real work.
