Former Rovio employees who recently opened the Boomlagoon studio have released their own game in the App Store.

In May, Rovio reported that the total number of downloads of all games under the Angry Birds franchise reached 1 billion. Not a huge amount, considering that, for example, the total number of all downloads from the App Store is 25 billion. Today, new details about the famous “bird” brand have become known.

Journalists from PocketGamer decided to figure out what a paid game can count on in today’s mobile app market. Is there an opportunity to make money not on f2p and not on freemium when it comes to iOS and Android?

To date, more than 80 thousand fake versions of Bad Piggies containing viruses have already been downloaded, according to Barracuda Networks. 

The creators of Angry Birds are going to present their first e-book for mobile devices at the Frankfurt Book Fair in a week. 

Rovio until recently was something of an idol for mobile developers, being a company that was able to not only earn money on one game, but also build an entire entertainment empire – with cartoons, coloring books, soft toys and gelatin candies.
