App Annie has published game tops for downloads and revenue for May

The analytical company, whose mascot is a pretty red-haired girl with glasses, published the gaming world tops for May on iOS and Google Play platforms.

There are eight "newcomers" on the Apple mobile platform at once. The first two places, however, are stable for 2048 and Don't Tap The White Tile. 

Of the projects that cannot be ignored: the Russian Shadow Fight 2 from the Moscow Nekki (an interview with them can be read here), We Fight from Tencent and Make It Rain: Love of Money from Space Inch.

7 out of 10 titles can be safely called minimalistic (in other words, the trend is still observed). 3 out of 10 games are made in China.

While there is no Quiz RPG in the top, but there are two other leaders of the Japanese market — Puzzle & Dragons and Monster Strike. But what is much more interesting is the presence of We Fight in sixth place – and Thunder Fighter in tenth place. Both, let me remind you, are Chinese titles.

China's presence is also observed here. Don't Tap The White Tile from Umoni Studio is in fourth place, Powerboat Racing 3D from Doodle Mobile, which is engaged in cloning popular Western titles, is in eighth place.

Just like a couple of months ago (and, to be honest, just like a year ago) – the main players here are projects made in Japan and Korea. Only Supercell and King titles can compete with their popularity.
