Level failed? No problem.

Level failed? No problem — here comes the *nudge*. While playing Match Factory by Peak, I spotted this smart little UX touch: after failing a level, the game gives you the option to activate boosters for 1 hour and jump right back in.It’s a simple yet effective tactic — no hard sell, just a well-timed prompt to keep players engaged and progressing. Small design choices like this can have a big impact on session time and retention.Loved seeing this one in action 👏

Perfect Gaming App Icon?

You: the perfect gaming app icon doesn’t exist me: hold my beer! 📌 Shoutout to 'Color Block Jam' for this beautiful icon. It's simple. It's bold. It's basically a LEGO brick — and they used the natural rounded-square icon shape to their full advantage. With a 3D feel, soft shadows, and no extra noise, this icon does exactly what it should: catch your eye and spark curiosity.Game icon design at its best.

Parental controls in Mobile Games?

Parental controls in mobile games? Now that's a smart move! 👏 Just noticed that Royal Match has a built-in parental control option, allowing parents to set PIN-protected restrictions on in-app purchases and chat. With younger audiences engaging more with mobile games, having built-in safeguards is a great step towards responsible gaming. 🎮🔒 A few things I like: ✅ Easy toggle for purchases and chat ✅ Requires an email to activate, ensuring parents set it up ✅ Keeps the interface simple and accessible While many platforms offer parental control at the OS level, integrating it directly into the game makes it more visible and user-friendly. What do you think? Should more mobile games adopt in-game parental controls? 🚀

Good RV Placement in Cake Await

Good RV Placement in Cake Await Really like this approach to rewarded video at the level start screen. Instead of a generic RV offer, the game presents three boosters—giving players a clear and immediate benefit for watching an ad. This placement makes the decision feel natural, reinforcing the value of RV while improving gameplay. A small but effective way to boost engagement and monetization without disrupting the player experience.

Apple Live Activities being used in a Mobile Game

Are you ready to get your mind blown? 🤯 For the first time, I’ve seen Apple’s Live Activities being used in a mobile game—not just for engagement but for monetization! 💰 📲 Live Activities allow real-time updates directly on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, keeping players connected to what’s happening in the game without needing a push notification. 🚀 But here’s where it gets really interesting: Merge Adventure is using it for a limited-time offer reminder! Instead of a simple in-game timer, players see their offer countdown right on the Lock Screen, making it much harder to forget. For mobile games, this could be a game-changer for displaying: ⏳ Time-sensitive offers (like limited-time sales or flash deals) 🎯 Event progress (track ongoing in-game challenges) ⚡ Energy refills or cooldowns (reminding players when they can jump back in) 🏆 Competitive […]
