GAMES ON THE RISE
# 3, WEEK, AUGUST, 2024

Last week some new games appeared at the top of the charts for the first time.

➡️ “Bus Mania – Car Jam Puzzle” by ZPLAY has had almost 1.4MM downloads.
Released on July 31, the new puzzle from the Chinese publisher 🇨🇳 mixes parking jam mechanics with “Block Jam 3D”, and has customization and car collecting metagame 🚗, following the path of “Chrome Valley” by Space Ape Games Ape.

➡️ “Highway Overtake – Car Racing” by HyperMonk.
The new title from the Turkish 🇹🇷 publisher is an excellent mix of Arcade Racing and Idle.
Following the motto “good games come from simple ideas”, “Highway Overtake” simulates an everyday situation: driving in a hurry to avoid being late. 🕜😅
It has realistic game art and “Tap & Hold” mechanics. 👆📱
The game also brings layers of depth, with several features in its metagame.
With a growth stage beginning in the last week of July, Hypermonk’s new title has achieved promising metrics. 👀
According to AppMagic, “Highway” has so far achieved almost 4MM downloads and US$150MM in IAP revenue (50% from the 🇺🇸), with a D7 of around 11.5%.

⚠️ Pursuing themed niches for men in mobile games is a hot trend. ⚠️

➡️ “Eye Color Mix” by CrazyLabs.
This is the Israeli publisher 🇮🇱 doing what it does best: the DYI color game. 🎨
In this new title, instead of a cell phone case, a shirt or fingernails, the player customizes eyes. 👁️
With the growth stage beginning in July, “Eye” has accumulated more than 3.5MM downloads so far.

➡️ “OFFLINE GAMES by Ludo King” by Gametion Technologies Pvt. Ltd.
The Indian giant that owns the Ludo King IP (+1b downloads) has picked up on the offline gaming trend led by the new Jindoblu title.
And the trend looks strong. 📈
In just two weeks, Gametion’s game has reached almost 800k downloads.

The list of games on the rise of the latest week also includes games from Homa, FreePlay, playducky.com, Unico Studio, Anchor Node, and much more. 🤌😊
