By the end of November App2Top.ru Together with AppMagic, I have prepared a report on the most popular and earning mobile games in the world.

The most downloaded games of the month

As can be seen from the table, the main game on the download market has been Among Us for many months now. Moreover, it is not completely clear whether we are still talking about organic or Innersloth have started buying traffic. A third scenario is also possible: the guys started investing, but they spend not on downloads, but exclusively on those who brought them recognition and success — on streamers.

As for the new games that only stomped to the tops in November, there are five of them. Let’s go through them in detail.

Shortcut Run

Voodoo continues to experiment with runners. That’s just the mechanics of her hits within the niche continue to get more complicated. In Shortcut Run, the player competes with bots in a race on the track. To win, you need to collect boards that help to “cut” part of the way when crossing over areas with water.

At the end of the month:

  • ranked 2nd in downloads on both platforms — 43.2 million;
  • ranked 2nd in downloads on Google Play — 30.3 million;
  • took 2nd place in terms of downloads on iOS — 12.9 million .

Acrylic Nails!

Crazy Labs has long specialized in hyper-casual projects aimed exclusively at a female audience. Acrylic Nails! — just one of those. This game is about manicure: nails will have to be painted, extended, processed with a file and so on.

At the end of the month:

  • ranked 5th in downloads on both platforms — 17.5 million;
  • ranked 5th in downloads on Google Play — 14.1 million;
  • ranked 9th in iOS downloads — 3.4 million .

Project Makeover

Bubblegum Games is listed as the publisher of the game. The developer of the game is Magic Tavern studio, previously noted for the box office hit Matchington Mansion.

Project Makeover is a classic three-in-a-row with a complex meta that resemblesHomescapes. Only there are more opportunities: the player spends the money earned from the bark not on completing quests, but on customizing characters and arranging their surroundings. The developers also abandoned the big map in favor of rooms-stages.

At the end of the month:

  • ranked 3rd in downloads on both platforms — 11.6 million .

Important: the game is rapidly gaining cash. It was released at the end of October, earned $ 5 million in November and — attention — almost the same amount in the first 10 days of December (now the game has revenue in the region of $ 500 thousand per day).

Rush Hour 3D

The game was developed by the Turkish Good Job Games. Despite the minimalistic gameplay, I don’t want to call it hyper-casual because of the realistic graphics. Otherwise, this is a typical niche game with mechanics that is based on swipes.

When driving in the oncoming lane, the player’s car picks up speed, when driving in its own lane, it falls. The task is to rush as fast as possible, dodging cars rushing towards you at the last moment.

At the end of the month:

  • ranked 5th in iOS downloads — 3.8 million .

Teacher Simulator

A month ago, we talked about the Papers Grade, Please teacher simulator from Lion Games. This time, an analogue from Kwalee got into the top. The player checks whether the students have done their lessons correctly. This is how he earns money. They are spent on new clothes and rooms for lessons.

At the end of the month:

  • ranked 7th in terms of downloads on iOS — 3.5 million .

The highest-grossing games of the month

Genshin Impact did not last long in the first place in earnings. By the end of November, it lost its positions to Coin Master on Android and Arena of Valor on the total cash register on both platforms.

Otherwise, there were no major changes in the market. Most of the leaders are well-known and have been steadily entering the charts for several years. The only exception is Moonlight Blade Mobile, which, like Genshin Impact, has only recently become a leader. We talked about the project in detail a month ago.
