Apple summed up the results of the year: the company presented its favorites this year, and also told which games were the most successful in terms of downloads and revenue.
The best game for iPhone was Threes!. There is no need to be surprised here. The game has spawned a new genre, which today has not yet acquired its own name, but has gained thousands of followers, one of which is 2048.
Leo’s Fortune also made it to the finals.
Monument Valley turned out to be the best game for iPad. It cannot be called so important for the industry, but it has made a decent noise.
The World of Tanks Blitz got to the final.
In the general list of the best games in Russia you can find: Etherlords, Smash Hit, Ruzzle Adventure, Evolution: Battle for Utopia, Rules!, Bicolor, Spellfall, Hitman GO, Godus, Kiwanuka, FIFA 15 Ultimate Team, Modern Combat 5: Eclipse, Table Tennis Touch, Bioshock, Boom Beach, Royal Revolt 2, The Perfect Spider-Man, Trials Frontier, Crazy Taxi: City Rush, Dance Party, The Banner Saga, Invincible Knight, Airheads Jump, Skylanders, Fates Forever, Valiant Heart, Thomas Was Alone, Battleheart Legacy and Hearthstone.
All the projects are very worthy, but it is important to understand here: the finalists and the overall list strongly depend on the region. In the USA, for example, there is no “Evolution”, but there is Castle Doombad and Retry. And, by the way, the European lists do not differ from the American ones, but the Asian ones do significantly.
Apple also presented the tops of applications (free, paid and cash) for the year (by region), but as far as I can tell, they are completely unrepresentative. For example, there were no Odnoklassniki, Litres, Battle Camp, Mamba and many other applications in the box office top, which were consistently among the leaders of the grossing all year, but there were MBL.com At Bat, DragonVale and Dragon City Mobile.
