The game took the seventh place in the top downloads on iOS at the end of the month. To do this, she needed, according to DataMagic, to sell 4.4 million digital copies in a month.
The main source of monetization of the game is advertising. For this reason, the game did not generate much revenue on the IAP.
Freedom Fantasy
What is the game about?
Isometric role-playing MMO, reminiscent of Ragnarok Online. The target audience, as far as can be judged by the way the game is progressing, is young girls and teenagers. There are minigames (insert the stones correctly, wipe the dust from the image, and so on), the plot is fed through cutscenes, the combat control scheme is standard for mobile fighters — the left stick is responsible for control, on the right side of the screen there are buttons for combat abilities and attacks.
