App Annie: Gaming index for September
“Red Anya” at the end of October presented the September results of the mobile games market.
Leading companiesIn terms of total downloads on the App Store / Google Play, there are two newcomers in the world Top 10 among companies – this is the international TabTale, which, surprise, specializes in children’s applications.
High downloads were also provided to her by Airheads Jump from Tactile Entertainment (in general, it’s strange, of course, it was originally planned that Wooga would publish the game). Ketchapp Studio also entered the top ten.
The Korean company Netmarble (daughter of CJ Corporation) entered the box office Top 10. The company has not shone anywhere outside Korea yet, but it is one of the main players in the local market. Even Machine Zone e on Game of War alone managed to get into seventh place in the box office top of companies (Katkoff scolded her for sales, apparently in vain).
Hits of SeptemberAccording to the world downloads among the games last month, Spider-Man Unlimited (a brief overview here) from Gameloft (the game came close to Candy Crush Saga) and Angry Birds Stella from Rovio were particularly distinguished from newcomers.
The first one did great with reviews (about 20 thousand five-star ratings), the second helped Apple (the feature brought the game to the Top 5 in downloads in 65 countries).
King also tried to launch Diamond Digger as decently as possible, ensuring that the game was ranked 7th in the world in total downloads on two leading platforms.
MomentsAmong the new trends, App Annie notes the updating of racing, which, according to the company, show themselves well in the free charts.
In August, Crazy Taxi: City Rush got into the world Top 10 for iOS downloads, in September it was replaced by far from young Asphalt 8: Airborne (released more than a year ago) and updated for Metal – Beach Buggy Racing.
Returning to Ketchapp Studio, the guys seem to have at least found the philosopher’s stone: since the release in March of this year 2048, they have been steadily releasing download hits: Amazing Brick, Circle the Dot, Don’t Step on the White Tile, Make Them Fall, Make Them Jump, The Line. In September, they pleased Amazing Thief and The Tower.
But is it necessary to take an example from them?
