HIGHLIGHTS OF THE WEEK
# 3 WEEK, AUGUST, 2024
Hello, everyone! 🤟
Today I’m bringing you some of the games that stood out last week. ✨
✅ “Annoying Puzzle Game” by Global Play Studio
The Vietnamese studio 🇻🇳 got off to a great start in the logic puzzle subgenre.
Following one of the main market references, Unico Studio’s “Brain Test” franchise, “Annoying” brings some innovations. 💡
First, game art with realistic cartoons.
A gameplay with more than 1 trick per level.
And a timer per level (a key strategy for boosting revenue from reward videos). 💰
So far the game has been performing well, with over 4MM downloads in the last two months. 📈
And do you know what the icing on the cake is? 🤔
Global Play Studio is a Cost Center 🔜 GamesCom Asia client! 🫶 🥰
✅ “Offline Games – No Wifi Games” by Jindoblu
The new mini-game app from the Italian developer 🇮🇹 keeps topping the charts.
Founded by solo developer Moreno Maio, JindoBlu has been publishing games since the early days of the mobile market.
It was one of those studios that took advantage of its good positioning in the stores. 💪
Released a year ago,, “Offline Games – No Wifi Games” takes advantage of a strong and long-standing trend in mobile games – games that work offline. 🔎
“Offline Games” is one of the most popular terms in Google Trends.
It’s no coincidence that the slogan “no wifi” is widely used in many UA campaigns.
Although it is enabled for offline, “Offline Games” has interstitial and reward video ads.
Another strategy of this new JindoBlu release is to include versions of big hits among the mini-games.
It contains versions of “Water Sort Puzzle”, “Watermelon Game”, “Two Dots”, “Match Tile 3D” and “Wordle”.
Some of the game’s performance data is impressive.
In the last week, “Offline Games” has achieved more than 5.3MM downloads (84MM total), with a DAU of 5.5MM on average, a D14 of 16.4%, and 28 minutes of playtime. 👏

✅ “Twerk Race 3D” by FreePlay
In recent weeks, we’ve seen the return to the top of the charts of old hits from the hypercasual market.
“Twerk Race 3D” is Freeplay’s second biggest hit with over 165MM downloads. 🤩
Last week alone “Twerk” reached 2.4MM downloads.
Not since 2022 🗓️ has the Freeplay Runner reached this weekly mark.
