DataMagic: the most downloaded and highest-grossing mobile games of September 2019
By the end of September App2Top.ru Together with DataMagic, I have prepared a report on the most popular and earning mobile games in the world.
Most downloaded games
iPhone
According to various estimates, Mario Kart Tour scored from 10 to 20 million installations on the day of release. This is a very large figure. However, according to DataMagic, this was not enough to overtake two hyper-casual games in downloads for the whole month — Sand Balls and I Peel Good (“Cut it off!” in Russian stores).
Sand Balls, published by the Belarusian company SayGames, has been on the market since August. This is a puzzle in the spirit of the classic Where’s My Water? (aka “Crocodile Swampy”). Only instead of water in it there are balls with which you need to load the van.
Sand Balls
A novelty from the companyLion Studios is more conceptual. In i Peel Good, the player peels vegetables and fruits. The fruit is spinning, and the user, touching the screen, sets the direction of the knife. Actually, this is what it all boils down to.
i Peel Good
From the noteworthy: Archero returned to the top — and immediately to the fifth place. We wrote about the project in detail in June here.
iPad
In the top of the most downloaded games for iPad among the new releases — only Cyber Hunter (number five). This is another battle royale from NetEase. This time in a futuristic environment, with sports cars, jetpacks and bright graphics.
Cyber Hunter
It is worth noting that the minimalistic Dinosaur Rampage from the Japanese Geisha Tokyo is in the top. The game about battles on tyrannosaurs in a modern city, despite the poor graphics and the concept familiar to .io projects, enjoyed great popularity on the iPad in September.

Google Play
On Google Play, there were no novelties among the most downloaded games in September. The composition of the top six has not changed at all since August. The main change in the top is the appearance of Cool Goal! from Gismart. We wrote about the game in August. Judging by the indicators, the project continues to perform successfully on the market.
Highest – grossing games
iPhone
The only novelty of the box office top is Dragon Quest Walk from Square Enix (fourth place). Geolocation RPG in the spirit of Pokémon Go based on one of the central Japanese role-playing series became the main mobile release of September in Japan. In just a month, the game collected $47 million in its native market (on the iPhone App Store). This ensured that she got into the Top 10 highest-grossing games of the month.

iPad
On the iPad, the most important event in September was getting into the top ten of not one, but two Playrix games at once. They have not yet overtaken Candy Crush Saga in terms of earnings, but everything is going to this.
Google Play
As in the case of the iPhone top ten, the most significant event in the box office top of Google Play was the appearance of Dragon Quest Walk. On Android, the game in Japan earned $28 million in a month.
Also, the Japanese battler DRAGON BALL Z DOKKAN BATTLE returned to the top. That’s just unlike Dragon Quest, he is now successfully earning money in the Western market.
