Mobile gaming has come a long way since its inception, and AI-powered apps have taken it to the next level. In this week's update, we'll dive into some of the most exciting developments in the world of mobile gaming.
Triple Threat: A Revamped Classic
Triple Match 3D, once the king of match-3 games, has made a stunning comeback with its latest revamp. The game's new "Mix & Match" offer system and clever use of Royal Match's Super Light Ball demonstrate its ability to learn, adapt, and stand out in today's competitive puzzle landscape.
Solitaire Grand Harvest: A Billion-Dollar Phenomenon
Solitaire games are often seen as casual affairs, but Solitaire Grand Harvest has shattered all expectations by generating over $1 billion in revenue. Its unique blend of solitaire mechanics, farm-themed progression, and casino-inspired monetization has redefined what a casual title can achieve.
SMT Cool?
The oldest game of all time, Chess - Play and Learn, has surprisingly taken the mobile gaming world by storm. With daily revenues of 200K and record-breaking monthly revenue, this classic game is showing no signs of slowing down.
Industry Insights
China's dominance in the global gaming market may be under threat, but for now, it remains a force to be reckoned with. The ripple effects are worth watching closely, especially with the launch of Black Mirror: Thronglets, a brand-new mobile game tied to the latest season on Netflix.
Mobile Game Marketing
The world of mobile game marketing is constantly evolving. Take Merge Dragons, for example, which generated $10M per month in 2020 without any competition from Merge 2 games. Supercent's aggressive ad monetization strategy and app-open ads have been instrumental in its success.
The Games
Monopoly Go has revolutionized social casino accessibility with its innovative economy design. Meanwhile, the biggest gacha game of all time remains a mystery, having never gained widespread recognition due to Apple's decision to limit its ad network to SKAN versions 1-3.
Game Investments
AI-powered apps are changing the face of gaming. A new hybrid-casual game has raised $2 million and is on track to surpass Plants vs. Zombies in popularity. With AI at the helm, anyone with a story to tell can turn their ideas into rich, playable experiences.
Game Jobs
Despite challenges, there's hope for the industry. The latest job openings offer opportunities for those looking to make a difference in the world of mobile gaming.
