With the approval and on the SteamSpy database (Sergey Galenkin’s statistical service that collects a wide range of data from Steam) the site App2Top.ru continues to regularly analyze and publish the Top 10 trending games of the Valve digital distribution platform.
Every week we publish the top ten trending games from Steam that are relevant for Friday. The top trending games on SteamSpy are formed not only based on sales, but also based on mentions of projects in the media and streaming services. Steam Spy shows data based on the last three days.
The most trending game on Steam this Friday is ABZU, a new meditative creation by Matt Nava, art director of Journey and Flower. The game about underwater travel was released on August 2, but already it has more than 15 thousand sales.
Kingdom Rush Frontiers moved from the third position to the second. The Uruguayan game in the genre of castle defense, although it does not collect tens of thousands of downloads, but its rating on Steam is off the scale – 96% of reviews are positive. Apparently, simple strategies are what is missing today from the part of the gaming audience that yearns for RTS.
The third place goes to an unusual newcomer – a realistic first-person team action game about World War II Day of Infamy. According to screenshots and videos, the game resembles Medal of Honor, but the players, as far as can be understood from the first reviews, are delighted with the project, where they can kill with one shot. However, some consider the game to be a reskin of the previous New World Interactive – Insurgency game.
Of the newcomers to the top – Half Dead from Moscow Room710Games. The project is an attempt to transfer the concept of the film “Cube” into a video game format. In a week since the release, the game has managed to sell more than 50 thousand copies. This happened both thanks to an unusual concept and a very low price. Users received the game very warmly: the rating of the project is 88%.
Notable events include the appearance of the Ghost a Tale game in the Steam top, which also held a high position in the GOG top a week ago. The role-playing project about the adventures of a mouse, released on July 25 and distributed at a price of $ 19.99, also boasts a positive reception, but its sales have not crossed the ten thousand mark.
Released the day before yesterday, This is the Police from the Belarusian studio Weappy Studio is not even in the top twenty trending Steam games, but since the release on August 2, the game has already managed to score more than 10 thousand purchases on the Valve platform at a price of $ 13.49.
