As the rest of the economy crumbles and short-time working becomes the order of the day, video game publishers are rubbing their hands together... especially those ported to Android and iOS as mobile game downloads have exploded since the containment announcement.
We suspected it, but playing video games prevents you from going crazy even if you are locked up alone in a 12m² room. So the confinement is the perfect opportunity to pick up the games you've left behind and enjoy a privileged stay in the gaming world.
According to App Annie, mobile game installations surpassed the 1.2 billion download mark in the week of 20 March. This is the highest number ever recorded over an equivalent period. This means that mobile games, which were already making fortunes compared to their PC counterparts, are now reaching unexpected heights of profitability.
Each country has its own preferences when it comes to mobile games. While the Chinese download Game for Peace, one of the two official PUBG mobile variants, in France they prefer Coin Master, a casino game.
Roblox, Brawl Stars and Magic Tiles 3, each in their own style, have conquered a more global market, as the table above reveals. So while the English speakers are working on their vocabulary, we're playing casino and Uno? To find some cool games, check out our top mobile games for containment.
