9 Video Games That Make More Money In A Day Than You Ever Will

5. Madden NFL Football (iOS & Android)

Madden Nfl 17
EA

Daily Revenue: $1.57 million (US stats only)

At time of writing, Madden's latest app is no.2 on the global grossing list, and for good reason: EA really put the time into developing a fantastically dynamic game that boasts solid graphics, nicely in-depth management aspects and pings to real-world servers tracking stats to keep up with the NFL itself.

Quite the sweet package on its face, and the app is actually years old at this point, but for this year EA took the time to study what 'mobile gaming tropes' are in vogue, resulting in an absolute beast of money-sucking efficiency.

From the opening loading screen you're encouraged to purchase 'item packs' to help spec your team in the right direction, and that's before you get into daily challenges, meter burns, multiple currencies and a stamina meter that - of course - can be topped up with just a bit of extra cash.

Needless to say, combining the competitive aspect of having the best team around with easy-access microtransactions that go up to £99.99 has resulted in a ludicrous amount of daily revenue.

Maddness.
