Rovio is now not only a developer, but also a publisher. It’s too early to say how successful it is. The company’s first publishing project was released two weeks ago. The second one will appear next Thursday.

It’s called Tiny Thief. This, as far as can be understood from the first game video, is something like a hand-drawn “Machinarium”, where instead of a sad robot, a little thief is sneaking around the screen, and the post-apocalyptic background has given way to the rainbow Middle Ages. 

And, yes, so that it wouldn’t be boring at all. Since the release on June 20, Icebreaker: A Viking Voyage, Rovio’s first publishing experience, has been consistently in the top 10 paid iPhone apps in the United States for a week. But he could not show the wonders of endurance.  Now the game is on the 27th place in the top. 

The situation with the iPad version is not much different. 

In total, the game has been in first place in downloads in three countries, entered the top five in 44 countries, and the top ten in 60. 

I won’t talk about grossing, because everything is sad there.
