What Is NDA In The Gaming Industry? ⚖️ Even if you are not working in the law field, you should be aware of it. (NDA) or Non-Disclosure Agreement is a legal contract that establishes a confidential relationship between two parties.- NDA can be signed right before you start working in the company. It can include different information about technologies or concepts.That's why you probably know people who can't share about what game they are making or in some extreme cases even can't name the company they are working at 🙊- Also, you can even meet NDA during the recruitment process. From my experience, I can say that I've signed several NDAs before conducting interviews with AAA gaming companies. Smaller studious are rarely doing this.- Same with game testing (Closed Beta, for example)Have you ever signed the NDA? Know any related […]

Elder Scrolls Castles is currently earning around $70k daily in revenue. It's a big IP on PC but terrible on mobile. Is this another Warcraft Rumble case? 👇 In this episode, we discuss Bethesda Softworks's global launch and performance of this mobile game. Jakub discusses gameplay mechanics, innovative features, and monetization strategies, and I talk about the marketing approach.We are very concerned about the game's long-term viability and the lack of content updates, so we are drawing parallels to other mobile games like Warcraft Rumble.The UA basically doesn’t exist, using only a few static images and one long video cut into pieces.

A major issue we discovered during a recent GamePlan™ diagnostic: If 42% of user reviews are complaining about ads, maybe it’s time to reconsider whether heavy ad monetization is truly increasing your top-line revenue. I can’t emphasize this enough: read the reviews, talk to the players, or at least consult your community managers—they usually know best.
Why is SuperPlay valued at $2B? Playtika is acquiring SuperPlay for up to $1.95B, and here’s why:1. Key Facts:- Founded in 2019 in Tel Aviv, Israel- 350+ employees- Current monthly revenue: $22M (a massive +123% YoY growth!)2. Their games are crushing it:- Dice Dreams: 45.7M downloads, generating $17.6M in revenue- Domino Dreams: 10M downloads, making $4.5M in its first year3. Why the excitement?- Playtika’s deal values SuperPlay at almost 10x its annual revenue- SuperPlay is one of the fastest-growing mobile game developers- With Playtika’s expertise in live-ops and data-driven monetization, SuperPlay’s revenue is set to soar even higher- Domino Dreams can surpass their first hit, so growth potential is hugeWhat do you think? Is Playtika x SuperPlay the next mobile gaming giant? Data Souce: AppMagic
