American App Store Games Market (6th week of 2014)
Flappy Bird and its numerous clones captured the free chart of the American App Store last week, on the paid one – one of the most delicious places turned out to be playing three-dimensional hide-and-seek.
Free top
In three weeks (from the third to the sixth), the free top American games have undergone significant changes. However, the leadership was still for Flappy Bird. Also in the top last week there were two more games from the talented Taiwanese: Super Ball Juggling in third place and Shuriken Block in eighth.
There were also two Flappy Bird clones in the top: Ironpants was in second place, Fly Birdie was in tenth. In general, we can say that January 2014 was clearly marked by Dong Nguyen.
Also in the top was (in sixth place) the third part of the sniper series Clear Vision, which was released in the penultimate week of January. Guess The 90’s high scores! they demonstrated that word games are still relevant and, with the original implementation, demonstrate good indicators.
Paid top
There were also noticeable changes. However, there are still a lot of familiar names Minecraft – Pocket Edition – as always in the first position; Heads Up – in the third position. Plague Inc. returned to the top.
As for surprises. The second place went to Hide N Seek : MC Mini Game With Worldwide Multiplayer. This is PvP hide-and-seek, made in the style of Minecraft and, it feels like, on the same engine.
The fourth is for the well-regarded Threes!, a game about arithmetic.
The tenth place goes to the runner Marvel Run Jump Smash!, which, as it seems to us, owes its success more to the brand than to the gameplay.
Cash top
Here all the significant places are shared by King, Supercell and EA. The latter, in connection with the update in honor of Valentine’s Day The Simpsons: Tapped Out, most likely everything will be fine this week.
