Blocks or Blox? That is the Question - The Most Downloaded Games in the World
This is a single insight from This Week in Apps - Converting Much?. Check out the full article for more insights.
June's biggest games by downloads were largely the same as in May, with one noteworthy exception. Let's see how they stacked up by looking at the data.
For the third month running, the overall ranking's two highest slots have been all about blocks — and Block Blast has come out on top each time, overtaking Roblox for the crown. That said, when you crunch the numbers, Appfigures estimates show that at 18M for June, Block Blast actually shed 1M downloads compared to its 19M in May.
#2 ranked Roblox, on the other hand, gained 1M downloads over May to reach 17M for the month. That being the case, wasn't it the real winner? We think so.
Rounding out the top five are mostly familiar faces (well, icons, really) with the perma-popular Subway Surfers (#3 overall) featuring across all three charts, joined by Pizza Ready (#4, up one spot from May), but #5 went to newcomer Music Piano 7 with its 11M downloads that pushed Ludo King with its 10M into the lower half of the chart.
Outside the overall top 10, Clash Royale's return deserves recognition. The title hasn't seen the top 10 in ages, but came back swinging on iOS after Supercell seriously reworked it to include an entirely new game mode.
Back to the overall chart, its 10 titles, including the new Moto Race Go at #7, amassed a combined 117M downloads, up 6% from the 110M generated by May's top 10.
