In conversation with App2Top.ru App Annie representatives confirmed this information. They do not report exactly how much the game created by the Playrix team earned.

However, this assessment is given by AppMagic by another analytical service. According to him, Gardenscapes earned $57.9 million in April. This is a record amount for the game. Earlier in the month, she had not earned so much yet. In total, to date, the title has received about $ 1.38 billion from players.

As for Candy Crush Saga, it has been the undisputed leader in the mobile match-3 market since its release in November 2012. That’s when the iOS version of the game came out. The project appeared on Google Play a month later.

The incessant boom of match-3 is associated with the crazy and at the same time stable success of Candy Crush Saga. Looking back at its success, many teams continue to bring their casual projects to the market. That’s just until April 2020, no one managed to throw the “king” off the throne.
