So, it was somewhere here when it was doing uh 300k a day. Now, it's doing solidk a day basically jumping to 1 million occasionally. So, there we go. Uh yeah, this is what we're talking about. If we go not in this emulator on another emulator. So, what's actually happened here when I log into the game other than I got kicked by a giant obviously sand worm outside because this by the way the best thing is like you're in this dark forest of dark zombies whatever dark dark and we go into world and there's like sand season currently with pyramids and everything so doesn't matter this sand worm and it's made of golden coins Rise Jack up designs worlds chasing the sky with the two and a half gamers the midnight crew talking UA adverts and game design too mate feeling
shak bringing the insight we're rocking those vibes till the early day life a master eyes on the prize tracking data through the cyerspace skies feeling stats colors like a wizard in disguise jacks lift us to the highest two and a half gamers talking smack slow hockey sick got your back ads are beautiful they light the way click it fast don't delayhu Uh-huh. Uh-huh. Aha. Uh-huh. No. Oh my god. It's like a hook. This is going to be quick. What are we What are we going to do? Hello, dear listeners. Radar time. Welcome to hell. Welcome to Oh my god. No. Okay, let me redo this. Hello everyone. Welcome to another exciting episode of Two and a Half Gamers, where you can stay two and a
half steps of the mobile gaming industry. Today, we have a very special episode because our very own specialty game designer, Jakob Bremar, is going to go through all the exciting games that we have covered so far on the podcast in the last how long? Three months. Three months. Three months. and we're gonna do another episode of the special review radar. Now, yes, my name is Felix Braber. My name is Melanchia. And we are your host. That's actually pretty good. But now, now we leave and he starts talking. Yeah. He starts talking and then we come back in an hour or something. Oh, I don't know in the morning. And then when when I when I hit like stop the recording, it's going to be 12. You know what? We should like 10 hours of review radar and put it on YouTube. You know, I some I sometimes listen to our review radar to go to sleep. I Well, well, I need to listen to it in the post-production. Always fall asleep
anyway. No worries. Anyway, but what's exciting is the Oh, hello. Yeah. So, let's start. We got the crap. So, Triple Match City November 25th, 2024. That's why we cover that. It's the hidden object iteration of the let's say the trendy version of hidden object pretty much not the old old old concept one. So November 25th, it seems that yeah, this game definitely broke through the podcast curse of us covering a game and then the game declining from that point on. So, it's already to something like 120k a day. Uh, downloads wise, again, it's fairing pretty well. Something like Wait, show me show me active user base. Yeah, 7K downloads a day, I guess. 3D. Yeah, 60K users. Wait, what? What?
I've heard of RPU. What the [ __ ] That must be something wrong. No, no, it's not wrong. And I'm pretty sure like this is only iOS and no Android. No, both both are here. Yeah, but just click on the selected apps. Selected apps. Yes. Not here. Okay. Yeah. Can you do revenue again? There's revenue. No, that's a revenue. Yeah. Makes 115k a day in APS. Insane. 20. Yeah. So, that's there. Very good. Not much has been updated in the game to be honest. As I was going through it, we still have the usual kind of levels that you play mainly. And then the black and white levels that they put there because of the creatives and stuff as we know there. So, that's
there. Yeah, pretty standard stuff. I don't see like not album implemented it or something else or maybe I just like didn't unlock it or something. But yeah, I was checking even game refinery here and was looking through like what was their update history and yeah, not much stuff really in between. There's like 100 new levels done on May or let's say this month. Then there's uh again some more new levels and stuff like standard stuff pretty much. So not not that big of a let's say push on. This was 40% revenue as ad revenue as well, right? So, this game is doing extremely well on that user base and with so low downloads, this is doing like extremely extremely well. The interesting thing is here like I asked cuz I know these guys to come on the podcast and they were not very interested. I really wish they would. Yeah. Yeah. We'll see. Maybe if they scale downloads a little bit higher or they don't need to if they're still making so much revenue. I would say I would say
they should because then they can call PVX partners because P today's episode is also brought to you by our sponsors PVX partners you know simplest most effective credit line for marketing because if you scale those 7,000 downloads with this type of revenues you can get pretty good results right so you can scale and you need funding yeah no equity dilutions you can repay as you get paid flexible fast there you go so can get term sheet just 24 hours. Just call PVX partners or just go to pxpartners.com and and uh tell them two and a half gamers sent you as usual. Yeah, just don't wait. PVX partners.com. There you go. Easy. Very easy. November 28th, Dark War Survival. Oh, there you go. Man, I looked so good for that episode.
You dyed your hair. You dyed your hair, I think. Sure. And the mustache. I mean, mustache is the the name of the game. Name of the game. Yeah. Yeah. You Anyway, so November 28th, as I said, so it was somewhere here when it was doing uh 300k a day. Now it's doing solid 800k a day. basically jumping to 1 million occasionally. So there we go. Uh yeah, this is what we're talking about. Um if we go not in this emulator on another emulator. So, what's actually happened here when I log into the game other than I got kicked by a giant sand worm outside in because this by the way the best thing is like you're in this dark forest of dark zombies whatever dark dark and we go into world and there's like sand season currently with pyramids and everything so doesn't matter. There's this there's this sand worm and
pyramids pyramids pyramids pyramids whatever. So, there's a sandworm that kicks you out and starts a new season, yada yada yada. Uh, there's so much stuff they added in between. I won't even go over it. Like, our sick dog is still there and we still need to buy the IP in order to cure him and get an escrate Katherine hero for there and stuff like that. So, that's still working there. I think even the the road that I still hasn't finished or did I finish it? Oh, no, I didn't. Yeah, there we go. So, it's still I'm on the road here saving the saviors and like stuff like that. So, yeah. So, they're moving forward full speed ahead. We checked the portfolio last time. I think I was doing all the river games game are actually scaling up. I mean, the new ones, not only last war, but also last Z, Top Heroes, Dark War,
and what was the last one? I think I missed one. Three more. Three more 4xes. Yeah. So, this is doing extremely well. Could Ri Game be making one of the largest AP revenues as a gaming company? You think? Most probably could be. So, like Yeah, could be. It's like that or maybe some social casino or match three maybe. But yeah, it's like probably they're doing extremely well. Moving on. A chair or two. Uh I can see all all the the backgrounds from my US trip. Yes, exactly. So, December 2nd, that's somewhere here. And then, if I understand China Yep. Yeah. Oh, no. Global US. US launch US because we were covering it during soft launch. Oh, yeah. That's true. That's true. That's true. That's true. It was already in Asia before. That was the Asian
global launch basically. And then comes us. It's still doing extremely well. I would say uh something like 400k more than 400k IP only a day which in this case means that uh there's still substantial amount of ad revenue but I would say it's not that big. I would say 18% ad revenue. Yeah, something like that. That I think is pretty good estimate. So what's happening here? There are new events, new stuff, new power layers added into it. So that's there. There's this demon demon king whatever demon king clash stuff. They're pretty much adding more of the progression layers like the characters you see here. Like there's this Yeah. Is it making more than Archer one? Yeah. I can double check. Um on daily revenue wise you mean? Yeah. Just go there on the back one. Just add archer on the on the top here. Okay. Yeah.
It's like 10 times more. Yeah. Just like, you know, why why would you, you know, use uh inferior engine basically like for money printing? So, going back to the game itself, can you go to to the creative gallery, please? of what? Yeah. Yeah. And then just go and view all creatives and then if you click on those networks. Okay. I don't see CTV there. Maybe I'm not sure why, but you know, maybe walked straight into it. Yeah, he won't straight because I think
Can you tell me what CTV is? This Yeah, like TV ads. Um because I think like they also thought like that the CTV are just for massive brands or TV ads are massive brands multi-million dollars budgets but not anymore because with WCO you can launch CD Hulu Roku you name it in minutes in minutes. It's that simple. Totally self-s served. So, you know, yeah, it actually can drive real business with over 5,000 brands already using it. So, go check out vibe.co. vibe.co, guys. And you go, you as well, Yakoup. Great. I love it. Yeah. So, they added not here. I think this was there before. This kind of wishing thing that was that was definitely there. Yeah. There's a new S tier gacha set that's there. That was definitely not there, but they rotate those out, I guess. So, yeah. And then, as I said, new character. I think we can even Let's
try 10 times. And we got nothing. That's great. Um, yeah. So, they're pretty much continuing their usual setup. Nothing really uh ex out of the extraordinary. I I haven't seen like giant changes like this is just bread and butter hobby doing their thing and doing it as solid as as usual. So that's there like I wouldn't be even like this is not really a decline in their case. It's more of a like stable stable curve. I would say stable dinosaur. Yeah. This is definitely not a decline. It's a stable dinosaur man. Like [ __ ] like this looks terrible. You mean like Simon's cat? Is Jav running out of steam a little bit? Uh, I can double check here if you want to see. This is the whole portfolio. Nope. Nope.
Like they they the thing with this curve always prop it up with the new game eventually because it's hit after hit after hit. So, I wouldn't be very afraid of my guess is they're cooking three or four more games and we just don't know. We actually were supposed to already review the Whittle Defender game, which we're going to review very soon, which is the new soft launch tower defense game. Anyway, moving forward. What's there next? Top Girl, our favorite game. Of course, especially your daily listeners because it's the most watched video on the channel. Absolutely. So this we covered on December 5th and I actually get Can I just say the comments you got and all the praise you got for that video is incredible. And not only not only that one but also I think the new one which was Z Z when two girls meets forex. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And like that guy like
10k. Yeah. That guy should start own channel. Those two idiots there, they were just sitting there adding no value. Thank you very much dear listeners. We really appreciate your feedback. Thanks guys. We have feelings too. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I like Aendai. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I got the SS tier Aendai. I'll show you. Uh but like let's let me first get the revenue. So, I would say it's kind of stable, but there's still some like weird stuff going on shenanigans with UA or or I don't know what's like these like valleys here. I don't know like why they went like from like 100k downloads day into like tenth of the scale suddenly. There must be some restrictions, right? I know what what might have happened. What? They they turned off the the web shop from Fast Spring because today's episode also by Fast Spring, you know. I mean, it is what it
is. Today's episode also brought to you by Fastpring because they have a new sponsor which delivered the TD2C at scale for over 20 years. If power top mobile publishers around the world, maybe maybe they powered also top. Well, we never know, but you know, no drama D2C partner with real world experience at scale. It's the partner you can trust. So, they go to fastpring.gg and quickly launch a new web store, replace an existing D2C vendor or just, you know, add the redundant D2C vendor. So, there you go. Fastpring. Yeah. So, what they added here in between. So, we have some new girls here as usual. Instead of SSR being the highest rarity, we now have ultra rare girls. It's almost like with our uh episodes. We have special episodes and now we have ultra special. Exactly. I by the way got Zaya. But this is not Zenaya. Like what the [ __ ] you think?
Fake Zaya. Zena from Temo. Something like that. Yeah. is in there idle part. This was actually a feature that like when I logged into it, it kind of immediately gets me to it. So, you now have this suit and uh there's this homemaking stuff where you hire a secretary, a chef, and a maid. So, more AIdriven girls with AIdriven animations. I guess that's that's there. And uh yeah, like the usual kind of stuff here. So, lots of events, lots of stuff. So, this is still living pretty well. I guess that's there, especially by updating the power layers. I guess we'll see the revenue can go somewhere. But my guess is that they're working on a second one or maybe an iteration of this concept of like streamlined Forex, let's call it, because Top Girl, I think, is the only one that's really a
streamlined version of Forex in in like real sense. Anyway, moving forward. Royal Kingdom. Yes. So, that's what the rave is all about. Royal Kingdom running the biggest celebrity campaign in mobile gaming ever. The the call of the horses, man. You still coin master. I would say this is on scale of coin master definitely or even higher. I don't think it's higher, but it's on the same scale. Yes. Because of the names. Yes, because JLo and Kardashians are more pricey than what they are running. I would say JB and Monica. Yeah, I mean Lebron fine, Jimmy Felon maybe. But the rest, come on. Shakira. Shakira. Yeah, but JLo and Kardashians and then there's like list goes on and on. So I would say they're very close. Yes. I think Yeah. So, let's just say that the game when we
covered it, we covered it in uh we covered it in what? December 12th. So, yeah, it was somewhere right here after the launch. And yeah, it scaled dramatically higher, I guess, because of that whole April campaign that they were running or May or I don't know when they started. I don't know. April 16. April 16. Yeah. So, I guess yeah, this is here. I mean downloads wise, yeah, it shows definitely that like got everything pretty much driving 400k downloads a day. We can check the [ __ ] filter here. Yeah, it's majority US. Yeah, but the US didn't really increase that much, I guess. If if I just go on US only. Okay, let's just say doubled double the US. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. How about US? How about revenues? Not only check revenues instead of downloads now. Use revenues. You mean? Yeah. Yeah. Use revenues.
Wow. It's pretty clear. Well, it's not going down. It's pretty clear. Yeah. Double also. Us revenue. More than double. More than double. Okay. Uh going into the game. Where where do I have it? There was fakes in there. Yeah. So, it's I guess the same or I didn't let's say I wasn't greeted with any new feature here immediately from the start. So, my guess is they're still waiting. Hey, the second Mr. Yak, what? I'm level 162. Do you have the album? No, you have the album. Oh, okay. There we go. There's the album. So, it unlocks later. Yes. Download later. Yes, it does. So interesting. Okay. So they're still updating. Yeah. Yeah. They're definitely working on it. Okay. Thought
they would have it from the start, but yeah, that was interesting. So yeah, this is scaling up. It's still nowhere close to royal match, but it's definitely on its way there. The question is when it will stop, what what the like uh the synergy of these two games will produce when combined together. It's not going to get anywhere near the royal match. But now I'm not so sure anymore. Currently, it's like kind of similar to that Kingshot white out survival situation in a way that these guys approaching kind of very fast towards like 1 million. Yeah, in overall there's going to be for for sure for some time and plateau for some time and then they skull again. But by this pace they're going to hit 1 million a day probably next month in June. So, we'll see if it goes afterwards. Okay, moving on. Blossom Sword. So, there was this nice game called Blossom Sword that we covered on December 20. Yeah, I wanted to say this was already a nice holiday season
because Felix was in Sweden. Yeah, you can see it by my background. Yeah, there you go. Oh, there's Felix. That Christmas sweater. Yeah. Yeah, this it seems uh really. Yeah, this is pretty stable. It's just that uh nothing really to it. Uh do you guys remember how much ad revenue? I think a lot. Like if I if I correctly blossom swords 35%. Okay. Yeah. So they're still running a lot of events. The win streak mechanic that still didn't unlock. There was all the like stuff that's been there. No new feature greeted me when I log into it, but yep, looks very healthy and kind of very stable. Great for the team. Yeah, this one's special of exile. Jesus. Uh two, which we covered in January 2nd in New Year's
episode. Yeah. So, this is going to be a little bit tricky because what's happening with this game and there's actually a lot of drama that you don't know about. Of course, I don't [ __ ] care. Oh, what happened? because there's been like a very vocal uh let's say community about them not being able to keep up the first game together with the second game because they're offloading resources for the first game to the second game. So the seasoning every three months of new league of the first game went to [ __ ] and this game isn't finished. So everybody's pissed because the new players are pissed about the new game and old players are pissed about the old game. Awesome. So yeah, uh the game still did great and when Shingu like BG insights it's like 143 mil just in its early access just saying just on Steam that's there 6 million units sold but again as
you can see here on this graph they had like peak of like more than just on Steam by the way this is on different pain in your eyes it's not payment like they They said it like they're pretty much going after like monthly patches but not content updates. There's been a new update now which is like kind of new league but it's not the new league. It's just an update. We'll need to see when they actually finish it and then I guess there will be this kind of similar bump to like like only only if I care but I don't. You run out of ads. I don't no yeah yeah no ambush ads anymore. I can think. Yeah. Uh we'll see. We'll see. But I'm I'm still kind of cheering for this one. Hopefully the team can can can fix it because there's lots of broken stuff in the second one which is not looking that good for it. But yeah, we'll see. Anyway, moving on. Dark and darker. Another special episode. January and this actually we were talking about
that it will go to mobile. This was when we were using the PC game and here we actually started on mobile but it's in soft launch because it's only in US and Canada. Wow. So it's dead just like the views on the episode of this review man. All five people said it's perfect. It's amazing. Yeah. So we'll see. We will need to kind of leave this on for it to manifest with some kind of actual global launch numbers or whatever. More sponsors than views on this episode. We'll see. We'll see. We'll see what how this will fair. Magic sword. Oh, this is January 13th. Oh, yes. Beast. Yeah. So, magic sword January 13 was nowhere close to its actual scape when we covered. So we covered it was like 40k a day. Now it's
120k a day uh downloads wise. This is not the final destination. Yeah, this is not the final destination. Definitely 50k downloads a day. Uh we can do the [ __ ] filter here. It's all US. Yeah, basically. Yeah, as expected. When I got into the game, I guess I got one more event. Still no album, at least not from level 50. And uh yeah, I guess the team is still very busy building and scaling and doing pretty much all those things. So we haven't seen the it's not filled potentially yet. Yeah. Can I can I share something here that's really interesting if you give me uh the screen for a minute because basically I'm just going to sh screen share from my newsletter that's actually coming out tomorrow on this where I looked on No, no, no. Yeah. But yeah, I looked at the whole sorting category. Mhm. And this game magic store is just set to go super noa. The arpow or arpoo for this game is so much higher
than hexa swords. So in the last 30 days, magic sword made uh $4.1 million. So 3.3 from IP and 1 million from ads. Hexa sort like kind of the genre leader 13 million uh majority from ads right and bus sort which is bit different made by I I came yeah 4.1 million from ads only but just look at the RP numbers that yeah bus out yeah the advantage they have like how much they're generating from such a small user base compared to hex going to roll over you here man man like this is this is comparing apples to oranges first of all second of all this is IIP versus ads completely different ratio and this is going to be IIP ROAS campaigns which is going to be expensive as [ __ ] So no, you don't think it's actually doing well against No, it's doing well but it's nowhere going to scale to like excessive numbers because they would need to like
literally just helicopter money in order to get to that scale. It's exactly that with those those quality users producing that RPU. Yeah, exactly. So still impressive. Yes, but the whole whole like the argument doesn't stand. Exactly. Yeah. Exactly. Because this is not like fair comparison. Yes. The arpoo is high, but you know why it's high? Because it's mainly IP users are very expensive. Yeah. Exactly. Because then like the CPI versus magic sword versus hexa sword is like on magic sword maybe like triple that what you see in hex sword but the the arc was only double that unfortunately. No. There we go. Thanks for the screen. Next. Next. Okay. I mean, they're doing super well. That's true. Yeah, they're doing super well. No, not going to No. Yeah. No questions asked. Yeah. This one's your favorite, Felix. Block Blast. So, we covered Blockblast January 20th. Um, which you said was the game
with the biggest DAU, which was not obviously. You will never forget that. You will never forget. You were just [ __ ] with him. There's an There's an obscure game that obscure game. You want more? No one's ever heard of it, man. You get outside your like Reddit forum. So, no. No one's ever heard of it. Have you heard 35? Yakob. Get out of your cave. You're living under a rock. Yakob. Yakob. He's making fun of you. I hope you just understand that now or not. You didn't get that last time, but come on, man. Yeah, let's get back to this. So, we covered January 20th. Uh well, you know what? We could also say it it made €2700. It's a dead game. For sure. We could also say that, but we won't because we won't do that mistake.
I spoke to the account manager of Block Last for an ad network and he's like, "These guys are crazy." I was like, "What do you mean?" He's just like, "They have two and a half thousand pages of block list games." And I was like, "What?" It's like the biggest block like block list in the world. They have the biggest block list. Okay. I can imagine. So, they also have 10% on your retention. Day 90 retention. No, no, no, no, no. Not day 90. Day 365. Yeah. Yeah. It's nuts. Yeah. So, they pretty much scaled to record levels basically more than one. It doesn't matter. Show us active user base. Yeah. Yeah. We We're getting there. 15 million. Let's say still no Garina Free Fire numbers. Please just Come on. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Come on. Let's go. US is what? 2 million. US goes under. Is
it bigger than Subway Surfers if you put that on? If you add up. Oh, you want Subway Surfers against this. Okay. Yeah, cuz it's really neck and neck, I think. Oh no. Wow. What happened there? They were really neck and neck. Must have updated something in sensor tower. Maybe wrong filter. Uh maybe you didn't maybe get all the subway surfers apps into it because maybe yeah moving on. Um Project R. [Music] There we go. So Project R January 23rd. We would show you something but we don't have anything because the game's nowhere as usual. So this is I have the Discord. Okay, that's all we get. We get the Discord. Anyway, the game got much
bigger regarding his feature set in like I don't know which one is this like third or or second look that we did on it if I understand correctly. Oh, they're bringing new skins. They're bringing new skins into Yeah, but they they didn't say anything regarding. No, no, no. So, they're still working on like this. This has been going for what like uh more than a year now I think so from the announcement. Yeah, I think so. This was our what second announcing project guys June 24, 2024. So next month it's going to be for a year from from announcement. So that's very close to supercell kind of kill kill window let's say. But let's see because this has wasn't hasn't been even soft launch. There's always some kind of close alpha testing. Yeah. Yeah. Alpha test close beta whatever like the usual thing. So we'll see forward to or maybe I would rather kind of want it to launch now because I don't think so we can see that
many iteration from the beta moving on. Uh this is very important. Block gem. So this is it. Yeah this is it. Hello Blog Jam. We um did an episode on January 27th when it was still let's say just kind of getting its engines right 30k a day. Now it's doing 450k a day only 450k a day and that's 60% of ad revenue on top of that. So that's 600k a day 700k a day at least. Yeah, at least 100k downloads a day. That's the thing. That's the crazy part. Yeah. So, this game has already made 110 120 million. That is impressive. Probably for me, it's like one of the like literally like one of the year. Yeah. Like that's like they
said like it's it's their KPIs are so crazy. They've never seen that before. Yeah, which I mean we see the we see it in the numbers. Yeah. Yeah, we see in the numbers of course. Uh if I go here, what's they added lately? I even got the post about this. They're turning more and more casual actually. So what's there is like a new streak mechanic, which is the standard streak mechanic and pre-level boosters, which are tied to the streak mechanic, meaning that if you have the streak, you get those boosters in the level. So, it's slowly kind of getting there to some kind of cool casual feature set. So, my guess is that later down the line they're going to add even the album and even the like more events or or whatnot. So, let's see. Guess I'm getting referrals here or what whatever happened here or not. Oh, that's nice. It wasn't wasn't this wasn't there before. It's going to more that premium feel, I guess. Yeah. But as as we were talking literally on the on
on like one of the next episodes that you will hear or you have already heard, Century Games for instance has already like a follow up on this. Lots of people have follow I guess all the Vietnam gang has a follow-up on this already. Everybody has a followup on this. Took three weeks. Yeah, it took three weeks of course. But look, you know, it's the same thing what we discussed with Sentry Games. If you don't have the expertise, then you can you can copy whatever you want. Yeah. Yeah. But it's not that not that easy to kind of do this thing. And if I understand there wasn't there still isn't even after like what like 6 months. 6 months. Yeah. A proper even after 6 months there's still not like a proper challenger to kind of take his eyes on like Yeah. This is the Oh, this new Yeah. Yeah. This new level 17. So if I go here into the block category, of course downloads going to be by block blast because that's that's is pretty still in second even in downloads. But if we go in revenue, yeah, it's nothing else. I
think nothing really. Okay, I came number two. Yeah, that's the way. Hey guys, this what is this what I think it is? Yeah, of course. Hello. Hey guys, nice game. Yeah. Nice game you have there. Yeah. How's this is fairing? Yeah. Not not not not really. I guess it's hard. It's hard. Yeah. Well, they're not running any UA at all. Yeah. Yeah. So, that's that. That's why it's it's not going anywhere. Color block gem. Yeah. Hands off, guys. This is really Heads off. Like, this is really something amazing that you built there. Um, I see hero. Yeah, this this is going to be a longer one. isn't going to be hero. uh we reviewed on January 30th and what happened here is that we had like this was century attempts on three cores cuz we get legend of mushroom frozen city wrapped in Fallout Shelter like and farm visual
and then on top of it we had the forex layer but the problem of the game in my opinion was that the forex layer wasn't finished because as you see here when I was going into the forex map. You could just kind of just go around it and you see other people there. You can even zoom out. That's it. Like that was it. Like you could see other people's. I can see it. I could see it already on your gestures there. Yeah. Yeah. So I I just can't like there's nothing. And my guess was that most of the player base didn't even know there was a 4x map because there wasn't really anything to it. This must have this can't be doing well. Yeah, this is still not doing let's say no. How did I kill one of my tabs accidentally? Yeah. Yeah, I did. So, this is doing let's say is staying in place.
Yeah. So, it's a little bit better than last time like 60k a day. But important part and this is the important part. They actually having a lot of updates. So if I go here into the world. Yeah, there is a world now. There is a world now. There you go. There's the typical Forex world here that you can go and you can, you know, explore and there's different kind of objectives and stuff like so. There's a proper Forex world now. Forex map, I mean the March map. So they're definitely iterating. I will still hold like a final verdict on this like what what's going to happen because you know what's going to happen is not no not going to have any anywhere near Kingshot scale ever for now no definitely no ever ever I mean that's my like that's my assumption because of the problem total address market on this game is just very small yeah problem with this game This is also
that if it would actually get any scale then it would lock forex market during like behind very high production costs because now you would need to build three cores in order to catch them instead of two coursees because everybody's using century template which is the core plus the 4x1. So now they need to do three. Yeah. Yeah. So people should better pray that this won't succeed otherwise they're like corded. No, I don't think they foreigner but yeah, it's just just going to be a matter of time until they figure it out. Yeah. Yeah. I I'm still guessing they figure it out because again you see that they're working on it. Anyway, moving on. Um Candy Crush Solitaire. Here we are back again. Uh, and so there is nowhere. Is this the same thing?
Yeah. I wouldn't say nowhere. They added ads. Exactly. I think I missed that one. What do you mean you missed that, man? I I sent you description. You said you sent the screenshots as well. Oh, really? No, I I sent screenshots. Was it you? Yeah, I was actually playing that game. Yeah, you like that feature. It's I liked it from the beginning because it was kind of making the whole game way easier because you could then like if you know how to use it. If you know how to use it. Yes. But then I could just vomit on like the candy sweetness. So like it's just I I know. I just don't like that. It's too sweet for me. It doesn't really work. Yeah, that's just a personal preference. The problem is that scale-wise, it's also not going anywhere. Especially for a company like King, this seems to be like not really going according to the plan. But they
added this random meter. Not that I know I was greeted when I lo Yeah, not matter meter. Yeah. Yeah, it doesn't matter basically. So like my guess is that if like major changes aren't done to the game then this is going to be as it is and especially now that the Disney solitire game is scaling up. Vuggas game is dead. Solita gun hardress is still going solid like seems to me like the battle for solitaire this year is already won. We didn't even met Metacore firing the shot yet. Please don't don't don't get me started please. Yeah let's let's let's see. But yeah, this is as it is. So, let's go. Final game of the radar is the Goods puzzle. Okay. Oh, this is like two. This is a little bit later. Yeah, this is a little bit later. So, Goods puzzle
February. Well, that said that the the every video, Jakob, you wear a black t-shirt. Yeah. Right. Yes. Yeah. Go back. Go back. Yeah. Go one more. Roll more. Roll more. There you go. One more. It's all black. I know. There you go. Yeah, it's all black. It's all [ __ ] black. Yeah. There you go. It's great. Okay. Okay. I take I take everything back. I'm sorry. Yeah. All right. How's good puzzle doing? I didn't like this game. It's I can't play it. Oh, really? It was the conveyor belt game. Yeah. Where is it? My eyes. Oh, thank you. Did I miss it? Where did On which emulator did I have it? That's so many. Cheater
emulator.com. Most probably. Do we have a new sponsor? I didn't use that. We should. Yeah, we should. Oh, we can we can have Yeah, we can have a playablemaker.com. We can just go and just export playables from ads. There you go. Easy. Yeah. So, February 24th. So, which was somewhere here. You're in December. Yeah. Sorry. And why are you going to August? You You're looking for February. Fe 25th. Yes. Here. Here. Here. Yeah. didn't move that much. Let's say 90k a day. Pretty stable. Uh plus another 68% on ads. So yeah, still a lot pretty good. Uh yeah. Uh I think last time when we were talking about this, like this was the uh the one game from Vietnam that I said is doing everything by the books, especially the template and like all these other things that they have here. It's pretty much done very very
well and everything they're doing was pretty much on spot what they should be doing. Yeah, great for them. Uh, I guess usual more levels, more events, more stuff string done. Hasn't been greeted with some kind of major feature update here. So, either it's later or it's just not that big. But yeah, it's doing pretty well. Are you actually playing any of the games that we reviewed like still after a a review or not really? Just Pokemon. Just Pokemon. Okay, it's fine. Fair enough. I can't wait. Is it is it weird that I still play Vita Majong? Yes. Yeah, that's weird. It is. M still plays Disney. Yeah. Yeah, pretty much. I mean, Block Blast like my girlfriend was playing it so much on my phone she asked me to remove it from mine. Oh, really? I didn't play DC soldier for two weeks actually. That's a lot. I need to No, no. I need to get back. No, no, no. Play runs some
retargeting, huh? Oh, yeah. Get you back. No, it's fine. Yeah, Pokemon was doing great. I almost I think now by now I think I spent like 100 in Disney. Oh, really? Really? I mean, yeah. I mean, I was uh I was actually having a tattoo session and I was playing Disney Solitire. So, I mean, like I can't wait. I just need to play. So, I was like, give me Jesus. Give me that uh special offer. Yeah. So these are these are doing very good especially because today on 29th of May when we recording this there was a new expansion which you won't see on the graph but my guess this game has made more than a half a billion dollars. Yes. In 6 months no bit more than 6 months. Yes. It's on its way to do 1 billion very consistently in a year as exactly as as we predicted with John. So there Japan is what's stupid? It's Pokemon, man. Don't Don't join the line
of people underestimating the biggest I'm not underestimating it, but don't you think it could have been done more fun? What do you mean more fun? Like, it's exactly as it's supposed to be. Yeah. Like, you just don't get Pokemon, man. And there's going to be another Pokemon game releasing later this year, the Pokemon champion. You know, this battle can't be won. It's just like No, I I was I honestly I was just trying to wide him up one last time on the episode, but yeah, this doesn't doesn't work. He went into Zen mode. Yeah. No, no, it doesn't work like that. Yeah. Good. Wasn't that bad actually. She was good. It was really good. I think like uh we picked very very stable or let's say rising games this time. Not first time. Yeah. Usually it's lots of shark fins, lots of other fins. So not this time. Well, it's definitely way more Turks than Fins. That's for sure. Fins disappeared a little bit. Anyway,
uh yeah, let's see. Thank you very much for coming actually and see you in next episode. Join the Slack channel and also everybody that actually came to our happy hours. Thank you very much. Uh it is already like few weeks after MAU, but still thank you very much for coming. See you in the next event and yeah, thank you. Bye-bye. Bye-bye. [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music]
