10 Facts About Gaming In 2016 That’ll Blow Your Mind
2. The Puzzle Genre Absolutely Dominates Mobile Gaming
For as much as companies like Rockstar have ported across GTA III, Vice City and San Andreas, and Sega did the same with Sonic, together they form only 6% of all games played on mobile.
I'm totally blaming touch controls (because seriously, f**k touch controls for anything other than basic swipes and taps), as that would seem to factor into the ESA's findings, being 38% of all mobile titles fall into the "Puzzle/Board Game/Card Game/Game Shows" category.
As for the remaining amount, well... what would you classify half the money-grubbing toss that's available?
