🚀 The Zipline Hook: Unveiling the Evolution of a Game-Changing Trend
Remember when Fortnite introduced the Zipline in Season 7 back in 2018? It was a game-changer—players were thrilled to zip across the map, adding a new layer of excitement (well, almost everyone loved it)!
Then came 2019, and with it, the global launch of Apex Legends (Electronic Arts (EA). Pathfinder’s ability to deploy ziplines took battle strategies to new heights. YouTube exploded with tutorials on mastering zipline skills, and gamers couldn’t get enough.
But things really took off when UEFN was introduced in Fortnite Creative. Suddenly, creating custom ziplines and building unique games became the new craze on YouTube. The community’s creativity knew no bounds!
So, who took notice next? Mobile game developers, of course! Companies like Evony quickly integrated this mechanic into games like Age of Origins. It’s clear that 4X strategy games are pulling out all the stops to capture attention and reduce CPIs. They’re even analyzing audience overlaps to see what else their players are into.

Which genre is tackling similar challenges? You guessed it—Match-3 games. Recently, Dream Games drew inspiration from this trend as well. How awesome is that?
