Soomla: Candy Crush - not for Apple TV
Soomla has shared its thoughts on the app market for Apple TV. According to the company’s experts, this market is not for popular free-to-play games.
So far, the main game content for the “Apple” console is ported games from other Apple platforms. Most of the market for games for smartphones and tablets belongs to shareware projects. The leaders in this case are games of the genre “three-in-a-row” and strategy.
However, this leadership will not remain on the new “apple” console. The format will interfere. It’s hard to imagine someone playing Candy Crush for hours on a big screen, according to Soomla.
For the new console, games that can be played by several users at the same time are suitable. At the same time, since the main purpose of Apple TV is still watching TV shows, it is logical to make games based on existing TV IP, Soomla experts are sure.
Recall that the fourth-generation Apple TV went on sale at the end of October. The updated console is positioned as a full-fledged game console and has access to the App Store.
