‼️ SPECIAL INSIGHTS 👀

We all know anime-themed mobile games have taken the world by storm. But some parts of the world are more receptive to Anime art style than others. Today, I'm doing a comparison between the top 5 Anime style art games for the East vs. West.
YTD 2022
East: $2.36B rev ÷ 24M download = $98 RpD
vs.
West: $575M rev ÷ 15.15M download = $38 RpD
The East has magnitudes more powerful monetization mechanics and/or high spending behaviors. The West clearly isn't keeping up with their eastern counterparts. Though the top game in both regions (Fate/Grand Order) is the same, the RpD is $419 vs. $118.

The Collectible Card Games (CCG) genre generated $550M and 86M downloads in 2022. The Eastern tier-1 markets generated $361M and the Western tier-1 markets accounted for $145M.
The top 5 games in the western markets for 2022 so far are WWE SuperCard, Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links, Magic: The Gathering, Hearthstone, and Yu-Gi-Oh! Master Duel, with MARVEL SNAP in 7th place all totalling $106.3M — basically 66% of the western tier-1 markets.
The concentration in the top games in CCG is driven largely by IP and is definitely a winners-take-most market structure.

TIn 2022 we've seen Roblox acquire numerous retail brand partnerships from Gucci and Ralph Lauren to Nike. YTD, Roblox generated $777M with 170M downloads, roughly $4.50 per download — note that this is only their mobile app. These revenue figures doesn't include the brand partnership revenue (if any). Digital fashion is hitting the metaverse. Haute couture is here and we're about it. Roblox isn't the only example; platforms such as Fortnite also partnered with Balenciaga and Air Jordan. The interesting point is that these collabs could be as superficial as cosmetic skins to full-blown in-game on-brand experiences. But are the brands going to continue experimenting/utilizing these platforms in the short-term or would they wanna own the whole user exp themselves?

TIn 2022 we've seen Roblox acquire numerous retail brand partnerships from Gucci and Ralph Lauren to Nike. YTD, Roblox generated $777M with 170M downloads, roughly $4.50 per download — note that this is only their mobile app. These revenue figures doesn't include the brand partnership revenue (if any). Digital fashion is hitting the metaverse. Haute couture is here and we're about it. Roblox isn't the only example; platforms such as Fortnite also partnered with Balenciaga and Air Jordan. The interesting point is that these collabs could be as superficial as cosmetic skins to full-blown in-game on-brand experiences. But are the brands going to continue experimenting/utilizing these platforms in the short-term or would they wanna own the whole user exp themselves?

Look at Gaming #113 | Wednesday December 7th 2022
‼️ SPECIAL INSIGHTS 👀
powered by AppMagic.rocks 😎
Hey everyone! Since the year is almost over, I wanted to do an analysis of the most downloaded game in 2022, then compare that with the top 5 in the prior years. Garena & Subway Surfers are in the top 5 all the way back until 2018. If we expanded the the list to top 10, we see a few more new titles penetrating into the "forever-franchise" tier but getting to the top versus staying at the top are two very different things. In 2015, Clash of Clans was 2nd on the list, then 8th, then 8th again then 26th, then not even the top 100 by 2019. Keep in mind that Clash of Clans still received 3.5M downloads per month on avg in 2022.
Top 5 2022
1. Subway Surfers | 267M
2. Garena | 248M
3. Stumble Guys | 211M
4. Roblox | 173M
5. Candy Crush Saga | 157M
-----------------------
Top 5 2021
1. Garena | 249M
2. Subway Surfers | 187M
3. Bridge race | 175M
4. Roblox | 174M
5. Ludo King 160M

‼️ SPECIAL INSIGHTS 👀

Hey everyone! Since the year is almost over, I wanted to do an analysis of the most downloaded game in 2022, then compare that with the top 5 in the prior years. Garena & Subway Surfers are in the top 5 all the way back until 2018. If we expanded the the list to top 10, we see a few more new titles penetrating into the "forever-franchise" tier but getting to the top versus staying at the top are two very different things. In 2015, Clash of Clans was 2nd on the list, then 8th, then 8th again then 26th, then not even the top 100 by 2019. Keep in mind that Clash of Clans still received 3.5M downloads per month on avg in 2022.
Top 5 2022
1. Subway Surfers | 267M
2. Garena | 248M
3. Stumble Guys | 211M
4. Roblox | 173M
5. Candy Crush Saga | 157M
-----------------------
Top 5 2021
1. Garena | 249M
2. Subway Surfers | 187M
3. Bridge race | 175M
4. Roblox | 174M
5. Ludo King 160M

Look at Gaming #114 | Thursday December 8th 2022
‼️ SPECIAL INSIGHTS 👀
powered by AppMagic.rocks 😎
Today I decided to look at the my favorite game genres on the app store, which are RPG, Casinos, Shooters, and Card Games.
RPG and Casinos each has about 5.8k games in their genres. Shooters has about a third of that at 2.2k, while Card Games only had about 1.1k. Although, the gross revenue for each genre seems to be in-line with one another (ie RPG has 3x the revenue of shooters), the Revenue per downloads (RpD) is all over the place.
RPGs has a RpD of $12.72, while Shooters had a mere $1.15 — even Card Games had a better RpD at $2.36. Despite having the same game count as RPGs, Casino games had an RpD of $6.81. However, when you break it up into East vs. West, a completely different pattern emerges.
In the West, we have Casino games pulling in $15.8 RpD and RPGs only at $10.35. But in the East, RPGs pull down a whopping $28.01 versus $11.61 for Casino.

A deeper look into the RPG Genre with the top two sub-genres: Team battlers and Action RPG, which have about the same game count AND the same gross rev of $7.1B and $7.5B, respectively — even the Rev per Download for both subgenres are about $13.50. These are GLOBAL numbers, but once we divided them into Tier-1 Western markets, we see that the top gross revenue subgenre is Team Battlers at $1.6B then Action RPG at less than half at $700M. The RpDs are slightly different with Team battlers at $11 and ARPG at $8. Now, we take flight to our Tier-1 Eastern markets and these numbers go wild.
The top subgenres by gross rev are ARPG at $6.1B and Team battlers at $5B with RpD range between $26 and $30. This is 3x'd that of the Western markets. Simply wow. The sleeper here is actually the subgenre Open World which pulled in a $46 RpD. This is your Genshin Impact and Diablo Immortal titles. Ludicrous!
GLOBAL
Subgenre (Game Count) / Rev / Downloads
Team Battlers (2.7k) / $7.1B / 514M
Action RPG (2.7k) / $7.5B / 513M
Open World (104) / $2.9B / 146M
MOBA (89) / $2.8B / $205M
