The Simulation genre was propelled to 14% growth by the seemingly unstoppable success of Roblox as well as the rise of Family Island after the developer Melsoft was acquired by Moon Active. This is perhaps the most interesting puzzle genre as seemingly every year there’s a hit game that has some kind of a new twist to the puzzle gameplay. Noteworthy in the Puzzle genre is the Other Match-3 sub-genre that grew 90% with games Match 3D (AppLovin) and Zen Match (Good Job Games). Hypercasual games increased in-app purchase revenue by a respectful 26% while Puzzle games, the second-largest genre on mobile after Strategy, continued to grow at a market rate of 15% year-over-year. The growth was across the whole genre with honorable mentions going to Playtika’s Solitaire Grand Harvest ($53M, +56% YoY), Yalla Ludo from Yalla Technology ($49M, +187% YoY), Solitaire Cruise Tripeaks from Applovin ($34M, +504% YoY) and Dice Dreams from Superplay ($18M, +1446% YoY) The fastest IAP revenue growth (+42%) occurred in the Tabletop Games genre. And to be even more accurate, Hypercasual games was the only genre that continued to grow in terms of downloads last year. The downloads for the mobile games market declined 5%. When it comes to downloads, casual games were downloaded 33 Billion times, which despite the astonishing number is just a tad less than a year ago. While the double-digit growth is impressive, it’s nothing compared to the year before 2020 when the category boomed by a whopping 36%. One day, I noticed I had made three small charges to buy diamonds, but realized it added up to $25 for a few hours of fun? Then, I decided I would not keep buying diamonds & instead forfeit a life, but then you are only allowed to do this a few times & then you get timed out! Each time, the timed out period becomes larger! So what I thought would be a fun game has instead become increasingly frustrating!! I will probably wind up giving up this game.As a whole, the growth of the Casual Games category in 2021 generated 17% more in in-app revenues (excluding China, Japan, and Korea), while the overall mobile games market revenues grew 14%. I noticed that you buy what seems like a lot of diamonds, but then you have to use so many to extend time or gwt tools. I really love the graphics of this game & the cute messages! I have even shared it with my young toddler grandson, who loves to see the active fish! However, I find this game overly frustrating for the following reasons: the game claims to be free, but as you advance in the levels within the game & timed stages are introduced there is no way to win until you buy more time or diamonds to get the tools you need to advance out of a particular frame. So what happens if a year or two down the road you reinstall the game, do you get your purchased items back? I think you know the answer to that one. The problem is these payments are for single use items. In essence I have no problem with developers getting paid for their work. In the past the prompts would be for shareware titles, while this and most games now use in-app purchases. Well this is partly true, in that you could actually pay a decent amount of money up front for a good game and enjoy it without hassle. You may say, that games used to cost quite a bit to purchase outright and that you are just purchasing items in-app instead. You used to able to immerse yourself in games without constant prompts to pay real cash for DISPOSIBLE in-game items. I really wish game developers would stop this pay to play using in-app purchases.
