It seems that Gameloft has plenty of reasons to celebrate this year as Dragon Mania Legends has just bagged first place at the UNEP’s Choice and Google’s Choice awards, particularly for the Green Game Jam 2024. Environmental awareness is always a good thing, and it does appear that Gameloft's commitment to that is very much reflected in the concepts of sustainability and recycling within the family-friendly mobile adventure.

Just in case you're not familiar with it, Dragon Mania Legends lets you breed all manner of dragon species, nurturing them and playing with them as you go along. You can also build your very own dragon-themed haven - there even looks to be an adorable robo-dragon you can hatch, for crying out loud.

Specifically, the Runner Event will have you gathering batteries that have been disposed of improperly with the Battery Dragon - you can even use AR to spot batteries around your house. This should help players stay privy to disposing of them in the right way.
