The games of three video game development studios of METU TEKNOKENT’s Animation Technologies and Game Development Center (ATOM) were among the most downloaded games in the United States in July. It was flattering for METU to see the three games developed by ATOM-based studios simultaneously ranking in the top three of the chart on Apple’s App Store in the United States.
On the list of most downloaded games of the App Store, Fidget Trading 3D: Fidget Toys developed by Maglab Turkey ranked first, Trading Master 3D developed by Panteon ranked second, and Affairs 3D: Silly Secrets developed by Alictus ranked third. These video games can also be played on Android devices as well as Apple. According to the charts of App Store and Google Play Store, all three games, which can be defined as hyper-casual games, are still listed among the most downloaded games both in the US and worldwide. Hyper-casual games, mostly developed for mobile devices, mean simple games based on one or two game mechanics, aiming to keep the player constantly playing thanks to their uncomplicated structure.
