    play this uh um yeah I played every
  • 00:03:31
    single one basically every single game
  • 00:03:34
    yeah yeah so we're talking about uh a
  • 00:03:38
    game that's called offline games no
  • 00:03:40
    Wi-fi
  • 00:03:41
    games it's exactly what it is it's a
  • 00:03:43
    collection of games actually is actually
  • 00:03:46
    a little bit closer to impulse uh that
  • 00:03:48
    we covered last time yes we're on this
  • 00:03:50
    strend of like clusters of games in one
  • 00:03:54
    i i i s i i exactly I was thinking about
  • 00:03:58
    impulse when I was uh looking into this
  • 00:04:00
    is like only there's no you IP
  • 00:04:04
    monetization progression anything
  • 00:04:06
    subscription yeah no psychological test
  • 00:04:10
    nothing no you know usual training
  • 00:04:13
    whatever marketing Ploy nothing and then
  • 00:04:16
    yeah like this makes zero money impulse
  • 00:04:19
    makes a lot of money yeah that's the
  • 00:04:21
    difference uh let's talk some hard
  • 00:04:23
    numbers before we start so this was soft
  • 00:04:25
    lunch August 10 last year and it started
  • 00:04:30
    scaling and I mean really scaling at the
  • 00:04:33
    start of July where it went all the way
  • 00:04:36
    to 1 and a half million downloads per
  • 00:04:39
    day per day yeah so uh and from July it
  • 00:04:46
    went into little bit of decline but it's
  • 00:04:49
    still clocking something like 650k
  • 00:04:53
    downloads a day which is
  • 00:04:56
    monstrous um regarding Revenue the that
  • 00:05:00
    we see ip1 it's like yeah we don't even
  • 00:05:03
    really need to talk about it doing
  • 00:05:05
    something like what like 3K a day IP
  • 00:05:09
    wise so it's probably that thing that
  • 00:05:12
    you mentioned in the beginning the no
  • 00:05:13
    ads
  • 00:05:15
    offer no
  • 00:05:17
    problem giant scale that's that's the
  • 00:05:19
    only thing you can buy yeah nothing else
  • 00:05:22
    so that's there um let's go to downloads
  • 00:05:24
    and maybe country filter that I guess
  • 00:05:27
    tell us that's interesting but still a
  • 00:05:30
    lot of us traffic a lot of India lot of
  • 00:05:32
    Brazil lot of different things but still
  • 00:05:35
    yeah so
  • 00:05:36
    31% 32% of revenues came from us which
  • 00:05:40
    is that 100K because the whole revenue
  • 00:05:41
    is pretty much
  • 00:05:43
    350k but we're talking about 100 million
  • 00:05:46
    downloads from last year and like mainly
  • 00:05:48
    of course 90% is from the start of July
  • 00:05:51
    which is mainly India 13% Us in the
  • 00:05:55
    second spot 7.8% that's Lally 7 and a
  • 00:05:59
    half million downloads from us then
  • 00:06:01
    Brazil Indonesia Mexico Russia
  • 00:06:03
    Philippines Vietnam turkey United
  • 00:06:06
    Kingdom and so on so forth so but what
  • 00:06:09
    you need to say also is that this is the
  • 00:06:12
    not the only game uh
  • 00:06:15
    this uh
  • 00:06:18
    well no this guy there's it's basically
  • 00:06:22
    developed by one
  • 00:06:25
    person so this is one guy making making

  • 00:06:40
    Cinderella Story a mobile Cinderella
  • 00:06:42
    Story yeah yeah this pretty much um yeah
  • 00:06:47
    let me just finish this one with the
  • 00:06:50
    active users
  • 00:06:52
    tab which is something like what like
  • 00:06:57
    seven 8 million let's
  • 00:07:00
    say daily active users and uh of course
  • 00:07:05
    India is the biggest one Brazil but
  • 00:07:08
    still like yeah yeah it's still pretty
  • 00:07:09
    high like 600k us da that's like giant
  • 00:07:13
    so like 10% of The Da is us so it's

    still a lot and like you know those
  • 00:07:19
    users monetize much better so or do they
  • 00:07:23
    looking at the portfolio of the company

    named jinda Blue I hope I didn't butcher
  • 00:07:28
    it that much
  • 00:07:30
    uh this is their kind of people the
  • 00:07:31
    moment we can see there that like it's
  • 00:07:33
    nowhere close to anything they had
  • 00:07:35
    before because in July it clocked and 35
  • 00:07:39
    million downloads but they still have
  • 00:07:40
    like I guess they have pretty big
  • 00:07:42
    expertise in the genre of like cluster
  • 00:07:44
    games because they have like two player
  • 00:07:47

  • 00:08:18
    just a big um any other things that you
  • 00:08:21
    want to mention or for data you know
  • 00:08:23
    what I I just want to talk right now
  • 00:08:26
    also just mention the ad Revenue because
  • 00:08:28
    it's massive
  • 00:08:30
    even though the laws of big numbers are
  • 00:08:32
    like defly in force here like we can go
  • 00:08:34
    through the ad placements later but like
  • 00:08:36
    just because of this Spike when you're
  • 00:08:38
    having millions of people even if you
  • 00:08:39
    have 40% of users watching three
  • 00:08:42
    rewarded ads on average you're going to
  • 00:08:44
    be making millions because you have 42
  • 00:08:46
    million active players in the last 30
  • 00:08:48
    days right it's G to be big
  • 00:08:51
    numbers deas then they l so I handicap
  • 00:08:56
    the ad placements in this game they're
  • 00:08:58
    basically like only rewarded and is in
  • 00:09:00
    the games to basically help with
  • 00:09:01
    gameplay so it's really hard to estimate
  • 00:09:04
    like how many Impressions they're
  • 00:09:05
    getting and how many users are watching
  • 00:09:06
    it but I put it at 50% are watching
  • 00:09:09
    about four on average per day which will
  • 00:09:12
    mean in the last 30 days when it had

  • 00:11:42
    on the other apps basically so it's at
  • 00:11:44
    the bottom where they promote other
  • 00:11:46
    games and my guess is that this is still
  • 00:11:47
    getting bigger because there's like a
  • 00:11:49
    new game added called block fill which
  • 00:11:52
    again is just like a hyper casual game
  • 00:11:54
    basically that
  • 00:11:56
    they did uh
  • 00:11:59
    o there we go there you go just saying
  • 00:12:03
    so it's basically an amalgamation of all
  • 00:12:05
    the rewarded or all the hyper casual
  • 00:12:07
    hits of the last two years that have
  • 00:12:10
    basically been nerfed to not have
  • 00:12:12
    interatial banners and only rewarded ads
  • 00:12:14
    and put together but also the classic
  • 00:12:17
    board games which are giant in their own
  • 00:12:20
    download categories like
  • 00:12:22
    solit in India also like all these
  • 00:12:25
    different things in each I do a hangman
  • 00:12:29
    never SE this like digitally like so
  • 00:12:32
    good do you mean
  • 00:12:33
    never you need to play more games let me
  • 00:12:36
    go into out Place yeah there we go
  • 00:12:38
    there's there's
  • 00:12:39
    your save
  • 00:12:42
    me so yeah that's it and uh I would
  • 00:12:45
    expect that there would be some kind of
  • 00:12:47
    progression player level XP shop
  • 00:12:50
    currency whatever nothing literally
  • 00:12:54
    nothing you can change to dark mode if
  • 00:12:57
    you want that's a new feature since July
  • 00:13:00
    yeah then you can like you know turn off
  • 00:13:02
    the music or like I don't that's it
  • 00:13:05
    pretty much like you've seen it all and
  • 00:13:07
    this thing makes so much but yeah but
  • 00:13:09
    like look let's say I'm wrong right so
  • 00:13:11
    let let me put down the numbers here to
  • 00:13:13
    basically yeah 30% of users watch three
  • 00:13:17
    ads on average right so that's very
  • 00:13:19
    small right this game is still there
  • 00:13:21
    making
  • 00:13:22
    $250,000 a day even when they're
  • 00:13:25
    adjusting for low ecms and like they're
  • 00:13:27
    really low like average like worldwide
  • 00:13:29
    ecpm I would say probably is around $
  • 00:13:31
    four or five
  • 00:13:32
    dollars just because the laws of sheer
  • 00:13:34
    numbers like that would mean uh I was
  • 00:13:38
    checking the SDK uh sdks that they have
  • 00:13:42
    so they have Ado Facebook appin Unity
  • 00:13:44
    iron Source they everything in their
  • 00:13:46
    adups txt like everything I'd expect to
  • 00:13:48
    have there also Amazon also
  • 00:13:51
    Amazon Mor you are a listener I
  • 00:13:55
    guess [ __ ] hell yeah the weirdest
  • 00:13:58
    Network right now cuz haven't accepted
  • 00:13:59
    anyone new onto their Network for like
  • 00:14:02
    14 months now it's
  • 00:14:07
    nuts that's the thing
  • 00:14:09
    like even I would expect this to have
  • 00:14:13
    like millions of downloads from
  • 00:14:17
    UA the don't you dare tell me this is
  • 00:14:20
    all organic don't you dare that's the
  • 00:14:24
    that's the thing so that's the thing ah
  • 00:14:28
    while uh Mr yakob is
  • 00:14:31
    playing uh it's just it's uh it's
  • 00:14:34
    mindblowing even Pedro in our um in our
  • 00:14:37
    select Channel mention like how the [ __ ]
  • 00:14:39
    is this even possible without no UA
  • 00:14:41
    without checking the the charts um there
  • 00:14:44
    apparently in in censor there is like
  • 00:14:47
    10% of all of these download are
  • 00:14:51
    categorized as paid but in the in the
  • 00:14:54
    network analysis Global analysis
  • 00:14:57
    creative Gallery there is nothing
  • 00:14:59
    nothing in the last 12 months so I went
  • 00:15:01
    to Facebook ads Library nothing Google
  • 00:15:05
    ads transparency nothing Tik Tok [ __ ]
  • 00:15:10
    zero but could this be one of the most
  • 00:15:13
    profitable games in the
  • 00:15:15
    world pretty much
  • 00:15:18
    apparently yeah it's like printing money
  • 00:15:21
    basically yeah I well I I think we
  • 00:15:24
    should have Mr Moreno on the podcast but
  • 00:15:27
    he is on Linkin but didn't share
  • 00:15:29
    anything so I guess it's either
  • 00:15:31
    kidnapped or just hiding in the bushes
  • 00:15:35
    especially after the podcast
  • 00:15:37
    yeah because like there are like
  • 00:15:39
    different I mean I was trying to get
  • 00:15:42
    some some
  • 00:15:45
    additional information about this but
  • 00:15:48
    there there's not that many things
  • 00:15:50
    besides it's a collection of of multiple
  • 00:15:53
    games uh I think like I was checking the
  • 00:15:56
    Google Trends if I find something
  • 00:15:59
    because offline games I just you know I
  • 00:16:02
    Tred to find offline games I put this
  • 00:16:04
    keyword in Google and then like
  • 00:16:08
    immediately first two ranks offline
  • 00:16:12
    games by Moreno on iOS the second spot
  • 00:16:16
    the same [ __ ] game Google
  • 00:16:20
    so like uh search engine
  • 00:16:24
    optimization amazing same thing you put
  • 00:16:27
    put this into into that store this game
  • 00:16:30
    pops up immediately so it's like the key
  • 00:16:33
    and if you start kind of reading through
  • 00:16:35
    the description like get ready for
  • 00:16:37
    offline games this offline game
  • 00:16:40
    collection like it is like kind of
  • 00:16:41
    stuffed with keywords like all the games
  • 00:16:44
    like 2048 uh
  • 00:16:48
    and games for keeping your mind sharp
  • 00:16:51
    you know word games all of these
  • 00:16:54
    different keywords are definitely there
  • 00:16:56
    it's just I haven't seen game uh doing
  • 00:17:00
    such a good job on the like kind of
  • 00:17:03
    organic side and it does I guess it took
  • 00:17:07
    at them or him a long time to actually
  • 00:17:09
    get here that's why I think we saw that
  • 00:17:12
    spike in July I think before also like
  • 00:17:16
    yakob mentioned there is the cross
  • 00:17:18
    promotion from different games and they
  • 00:17:20
    the different games if you put it yakob
  • 00:17:22
    on the on the charts I don't really uh
  • 00:17:26
    kind of Steal Your yes steal your
  • 00:17:29
    screen share uh there are other games
  • 00:17:31

    up your your
  • 00:20:09
    IQ and Jindo if you're hearing this
  • 00:20:12
    please come on the podcast and talk
  • 00:20:14
    about what it is you do because this is
  • 00:20:16
    like you know everybody wants to
  • 00:20:18
    knowbody wants know
  • 00:20:23
    look interesting trailer I definitely
  • 00:20:25
    watch the full movie I'm just like what
  • 00:20:27
    what the [ __ ] that's just organic
  • 00:20:29
    traffic man that's the
  • 00:20:31
    thing 9 free toys blah blah blah yes the
  • 00:20:35
    that's the thing so my hypothesis here
  • 00:20:38
    is H well this is the first kind of
  • 00:20:42
    um download driver the for the games for
  • 00:20:46
    the previous games uh and
  • 00:20:49
    then look at what we have over here Mr
  • 00:20:53
    gindo fro uh starts a a new uh a new
  • 00:20:58
    panel and you know what is what who is
  • 00:21:01
    Mr Jindo frck one sec cuz we have Mr
  • 00:21:06
    Jindo frog and Jindo bl.com which is
  • 00:21:09
    this guy's um absolutely killing machine
  • 00:21:13
    uh his
  • 00:21:15
    website and it's so complex right so
  • 00:21:19
    this is it climb the lead antistress two
  • 00:21:22
    player games all of
  • 00:21:24
    these if you click on this let's see
  • 00:21:29
    antistress but that's not the game we
  • 00:21:32
    talking about is it I know that the game
  • 00:21:34
    is not there but there's antistress
  • 00:21:37
    trailer so he's getting all the all the
  • 00:21:40
    traffic through the website to to the
  • 00:21:42
    YouTube and from YouTube to uh to App
  • 00:21:45
    Stores or also here and here so it's
  • 00:21:49
    that's why you have all the all organic
  • 00:21:53
    kind of downloads as well it's kind of
  • 00:21:56
    interesting very it reminds me the old
  • 00:21:59
    days when I did like search engine
  • 00:22:00
    optimization and all the link building
  • 00:22:02
    stuff where I was kind of creating back
  • 00:22:05
    links on different websites to kind of
  • 00:22:07
    point to my website so then it gets
  • 00:22:10
    organic downloads and then it's kind of
  • 00:22:13
    create a Synergy of uh of a new traffic
  • 00:22:17
    so is weaponizing YouTube traffic to get
  • 00:22:19
    the installs that's my assumption yes
  • 00:22:22
    that's my assumption because it's all
  • 00:22:23
    here um and then but Mr giner frog
  • 00:22:27
    sorry is the ginger frog here is the
  • 00:22:30
    ginger frog here as well so a new game
  • 00:22:33
    new
  • 00:22:34
    channel again so Jinder frog is our good
  • 00:22:38
    old guy Moreno Mayo uh so but be the new
  • 00:22:42
    coming up with the new channel let's go
  • 00:22:44
    back here five months ago offline games
  • 00:22:47
    no wey games 6 million views
  • 00:22:50
    H again not a coincidence so he's using
  • 00:22:53
    all these uh all these videos all the
  • 00:22:55
    channels uh apparently he knows what
  • 00:22:58
    is's doing based on
  • 00:23:00
    the all these activities which are
  • 00:23:04
    organic but still yes kind of organic
  • 00:23:08
    but not really organic but it's uh it
  • 00:23:10
    really appears in the in the eyes of the
  • 00:23:13
    App Store as organic in the eyes of uh
  • 00:23:17
    our sensor Tower and kind of has this um
  • 00:23:22
    organic yeah explain that again explain
  • 00:23:25
    that again so you think he does UA to
  • 00:23:27
    these videos and then basically it comes
  • 00:23:29
    in the App Store as organic or what it's
  • 00:23:31
    uh it's a combination so I think it's
  • 00:23:33
    driving traffic and I I wanted to kind
  • 00:23:36
    of uh look at different tools for see
  • 00:23:39
    search engine optimization maybe I will
  • 00:23:41
    get more data points later uh so if you
  • 00:23:44
    want to know more join our slack channel
  • 00:23:46
    so he's driving traffic to to the web uh
  • 00:23:49
    which from web is driving traffic to
  • 00:23:50
    YouTube from YouTube there are links for
  • 00:23:53
    the for all the games and from the
  • 00:23:56
    YouTube everybody's going to the actual
  • 00:23:59
    App Store so it's not really paid
  • 00:24:02
    towards the App Store think about this
  • 00:24:05
    as like a landing page and you're going
  • 00:24:06
    to the landing page and then from the
  • 00:24:08
    landing page you're going to a steam
  • 00:24:10
    game or you're going to to download a PC
  • 00:24:13
    client or like you know like one step in
  • 00:24:15
    in the between that's uh that's what I'm
  • 00:24:18
    trying to say so it's not driving
  • 00:24:19
    traffic to to iOS or up uh Google play
  • 00:24:24
    but through other websites just going
  • 00:24:26
    directly to App Store so it's actually
  • 00:24:28
    organ
  • 00:24:29
    yob you want to share something
  • 00:24:33
    um on
  • 00:24:35
    it Theory can you explain me this
  • 00:24:38
    because until this like your theory
  • 00:24:40
    works like you start slow you go like
  • 00:24:42
    20K blah blah blah 150k whatever like it
  • 00:24:47
    you know boils on blah blah blah but
  • 00:24:49
    then how the [ __ ] do you get one and a
  • 00:24:52
    half million downloads a day from like
  • 00:24:55
    10 times less literally like a week ago
  • 00:24:58
    we the UA one second I just uh I just
  • 00:25:01
    had one interesting interesting idea
  • 00:25:04
    like this that like Mr Beast did the
  • 00:25:07
    video on this or am I missing something
  • 00:25:12
    or uh I don't think you're missing
  • 00:25:14
    something it's just uh it's not very
  • 00:25:18
    easy to find all of these different
  • 00:25:21
    different things
  • 00:25:22
    because I think it started somewhere
  • 00:25:26
    around uh where he he started his own
  • 00:25:29
    new channel and one one five months ago
  • 00:25:33
    this this was five months ago yeah that
  • 00:25:34
    was five months ago uh this is like two
  • 00:25:36
    months ago what who the spike I
  • 00:25:40
    mean oh there is oh it's true actually
  • 00:25:43
    the game is five months ago but that's
  • 00:25:46
    like the first uh first launch of that
  • 00:25:48
    game uh that video it's kind of still
  • 00:25:51
    going
  • 00:25:52
    on eight eight days ago still getting uh
  • 00:25:56
    comments on this oh that's okay I'm just
  • 00:25:59
    like what was the you know external
  • 00:26:01
    Factor behind the spike of 10 times your
  • 00:26:04
    daily traffic even though like 170k
  • 00:26:08
    downloads a day is already a [ __ ] T
  • 00:26:09
    don't get me wrong yeah yeah yeah does
  • 00:26:11
    game Refinery say
  • 00:26:14
    anything don't know what to there's like
  • 00:26:17
    so few features yeah it's like you you
  • 00:26:19
    have to you have to request like the
  • 00:26:23
    analysis of this game so let me just go
  • 00:26:25
    back nothing nothing need like the game
  • 00:26:27
    does I would expect some viral mechanics
  • 00:26:30
    at least or whatever some social Fe
  • 00:26:32
    nothing in it I think that's the cross
  • 00:26:34
    promotion from other games like maybe
  • 00:26:36
    that's that's the thing like we need to
  • 00:26:38
    look defies all logic it's incredible
  • 00:26:41
    like the answer lies in these two other
  • 00:26:43
    games the two player G anti in anti and
  • 00:26:45
    two yeah yeah
  • 00:26:47
    exactly because like those games were
  • 00:26:49
    getting like the same like 5 million
  • 00:26:52
    millionar a month but how the [ __ ] can
  • 00:26:55
    you then scale to 35 yeah in in in July
  • 00:26:59
    only and uh and I don't see 25 in August
  • 00:27:04
    already I know I know I know I
  • 00:27:07
    know I know that's the thing uh so uh
  • 00:27:10
    one second I just want and these two
  • 00:27:12
    games they didn't didn't really like
  • 00:27:15
    see [ __ ] where we are uh if I remove
  • 00:27:19
    this these two games didn't actually you
  • 00:27:21
    know it's not the same traffic they
  • 00:27:23
    didn't go down or whatever it's it's
  • 00:27:26
    they just growing up yeah everything is
  • 00:27:29
    growing everything is gr unless spending
  • 00:27:31
    half a million UA a month like this is
  • 00:27:33
    like turning nothing into hundreds of
  • 00:27:37
    thousands of dollars using just organic
  • 00:27:40
    knowledge making him a wizard making him
  • 00:27:43
    Jimbo the hero J look I mean it seems
  • 00:27:48
    based on this there is still like some
  • 00:27:51
    level of paid that's the thing I'm
  • 00:27:53
    trying to kind of figure out like there
  • 00:27:54
    is like still like 10% of paid and
  • 00:27:57
    that's what like sensor St trying to
  • 00:28:00
    make sure that this is not like a
  • 00:28:02
    complete
  • 00:28:03
    anomaly honestly that's the thing
  • 00:28:06
    because if you go here see any creatives
  • 00:28:08
    and [ __ ] that's exactly there are like
  • 00:28:12
    zero like and you see July in the Google
  • 00:28:16
    library and even in the Facebook Library
  • 00:28:18
    that's what I said like there's nothing
  • 00:28:20
    there's literally I tried to see like
  • 00:28:23
    Tik Tok as while I didn't see anything
  • 00:28:25
    and here you have 25 million downloads
  • 00:28:29
    organ and then three million downloads
  • 00:28:31
    paid but where are the paid that's the
  • 00:28:34
    thing like where where are they my guess
  • 00:28:35
    is this is just approximation based on
  • 00:28:37
    some kind
  • 00:28:38
    OFA needs to be paid otherwise my buffer
  • 00:28:41
    go no no like it needs to be uh I think
  • 00:28:43
    it's calculated based on the the referal
  • 00:28:46
    TR that's [ __ ] how could they get
  • 00:28:49
    the numbers yeah so you mean the cross
  • 00:28:51
    promotion either cross promotion or just
  • 00:28:54
    referral traffic uh you can get uh from
  • 00:28:57
    in the Google console basically which is
  • 00:29:00
    not organic but it's some going from
  • 00:29:02
    some websites you know like that's thing
  • 00:29:04
    that this is what I I still think is
  • 00:29:06
    happening like he created a lot
  • 00:29:08
    of uh a lot of backlinks around the game
  • 00:29:12
    around the YouTube channel and then
  • 00:29:14
    around his website and then driving it's
  • 00:29:17
    just like workaround so it all looks
  • 00:29:21
    like this is kind of like T
  • 00:29:28
    yes while Voodoo uses brain some game
  • 00:29:31
    design and money to scale this guy is
  • 00:29:33
    just using pure skill and not that much
  • 00:29:36
    money because look it achieves the same
  • 00:29:39
    results same results look I mean what
  • 00:29:42
    creative Gallery August
  • 00:29:46
    July nothing there's like literally
  • 00:29:48
    nothing if you're listening to this and
  • 00:29:49
    you actually know what's going on please
  • 00:29:51
    feel free to come on the podcast or
  • 00:29:52
    reach out to us because this is from the
  • 00:29:55
    outside a big jaw-dropper like what is
  • 00:29:58
    going on but also also
  • 00:30:02
    it's I just went to um to mobile elction
  • 00:30:07
    for some ASO kind of stuff this guy
  • 00:30:10
    ranks on all of these games like no
  • 00:30:13
    internet games game offline games all
  • 00:30:15
    the keywords on the rank one you see
  • 00:30:18
    lies about in
  • 00:30:20
    creatives man it's not easy I mean this
  • 00:30:23
    is this takes time this takes time so
  • 00:30:25
    maybe like that's why like uh it kind
  • 00:30:28
    kind of uh kicked in or like all these
  • 00:30:30
    like actions kicked in in in July
  • 00:30:32
    because it started to rank same times
  • 00:30:35
    the previous week yeah yeah that would
  • 00:30:37
    be just that would be a miracle that
  • 00:30:39
    would be a miracle this literally is a
  • 00:30:41
    miracle games no offline games you know
  • 00:30:44
    no internet like all of these so that's
  • 00:30:48
    that's the thing like also when I was
  • 00:30:50
    looking into here like it's getting all
  • 00:30:52
    the it's
  • 00:30:54
    4.9
  • 00:30:56
    66,000 uh
  • 00:30:59
    [ __ ] ratings reviews yeah it's all
  • 00:31:02
    almost all five like it was also in
  • 00:31:05
    category ranking in games in free like
  • 00:31:09
    on the number five now it's kind of
  • 00:31:10
    dropped because you see the because it
  • 00:31:13
    literally does what it says it does it
  • 00:31:15
    gives you collection of no Wi-fi offl
  • 00:31:18
    yeah yeah exactly there's no lie that's
  • 00:31:21
    the thing like no lie no it's fun no
  • 00:31:23
    internet barely add this game is so
  • 00:31:25
    addicting recently download
  • 00:31:29
    man it's that's the thing everybody
  • 00:31:31
    loves this
  • 00:31:32
    [ __ ] because isn't even trying to make
  • 00:31:35
    money it's not even trying I mean well
  • 00:31:38
    it's not even trying but but it is but
  • 00:31:41
    it is it is I mean kind of kind of is
  • 00:31:46
    but it's like
  • 00:31:47
    exactly they ODS I mean fix I think
  • 00:31:52
    you're overestimating like how many ads
  • 00:31:54
    these people watch because I would say
  • 00:31:56
    so well yeah dude that's the thing okay
  • 00:31:59
    let me let me take it down to let's say
  • 00:32:00
    one ad per 30% right that's not very out
  • 00:32:05
    minimum okay one ad per
  • 00:32:07
    30% okay so
  • 00:32:09
    that's that's still $78,000 a day in the
  • 00:32:12
    last 38 days last 30 days like it
  • 00:32:15
    doesn't matter like with these numbers
  • 00:32:17
    like one ad per 30% of users that still
  • 00:32:21
    would mean it's making $2.5 million a
  • 00:32:26
    month like see with these big numbers
  • 00:32:29
    like I can be wrong but it's still I
  • 00:32:31
    know
  • 00:32:33
    thousands so he's playing around with
  • 00:32:35
    all of the like a lot of different
  • 00:32:37
    things in
  • 00:32:39
    the in the updates yes yeah and I think
  • 00:32:43
    what was it here because I was thinking
  • 00:32:44
    that you
  • 00:32:45
    know if you let's say going after one
  • 00:32:48
    specific game that you find in the
  • 00:32:49
    catalog and you don't
  • 00:32:52
    really um like don't really run into
  • 00:32:55
    these rewarded ads you never run into
  • 00:32:57
    all the other apps therefore you never
  • 00:32:58
    run into ads basically if you you can
  • 00:33:01
    end up like that
  • 00:33:03
    basically so there's also there's also
  • 00:33:06
    where was it uh I was kind of looking
  • 00:33:09
    into this trying to understand like what
  • 00:33:11
    the [ __ ] seriously I mean I never seen
  • 00:33:14
    this before uh he's changing all like
  • 00:33:17
    icons
  • 00:33:18
    screenshots things but then okay what's
  • 00:33:23
    new right right here reviews and then
  • 00:33:27
    and featured apps it's all like changing
  • 00:33:31
    different things Bry don't like he's
  • 00:33:33
    also paying attention to like what's uh
  • 00:33:36
    what's doing well and what's not doing
  • 00:33:38
    well and then uh where is this like he
  • 00:33:43
    he added just like the the Ludo in like
  • 00:33:46
    July and it's immediately like started
  • 00:33:49
    to scale like crazy in India as well so
  • 00:33:51
    like all of these because it's like one
  • 00:33:53
    of the biggest download categories in
  • 00:33:54
    India yeah so that's exactly so that's
  • 00:33:57
    the thing all the most
  • 00:33:59
    Oran yeah exactly so like that was that
  • 00:34:03
    was done just right before July I think
  • 00:34:07
    I I saw it somewhere supercharge
  • 00:34:11
    it could be you know new game Ludo new
  • 00:34:14
    game color cards so new not the dark
  • 00:34:18
    mode like dark mode games guys if you
  • 00:34:21
    want to have like amazing scale add dark
  • 00:34:26
    mod
  • 00:34:28
    I dark mod to your to your
  • 00:34:31
    games no but like all of these like
  • 00:34:33
    small things here and there like I
  • 00:34:36
    believe creates a lot of synergy I mean
  • 00:34:38
    I might be wrong but it's kind of still
  • 00:34:41
    reminds me the all days when I was doing
  • 00:34:43
    this but on website and this is just
  • 00:34:45
    like a dream of every ASO manager I
  • 00:34:48
    would say to just create this um I'm
  • 00:34:52
    just smiling I'm just smiling I haven't
  • 00:34:53
    been this mind blown since Jakob showed
  • 00:34:56
    me um musum games for the first time
  • 00:34:58
    like this is pure mind
  • 00:34:59
    blown LEL she definitely oh yeah
  • 00:35:02
    absolutely but
  • 00:35:04
    like like this you see like what do you
  • 00:35:07
    think let let me put put it in right now
  • 00:35:09
    should we say 30% of users watch two ads
  • 00:35:12
    like what should we say like yeah money
  • 00:35:14
    we don't need to talk about it it makes
  • 00:35:16
    [ __ ] t no money even with the like Bare
  • 00:35:17
    Bones monetization yeah exactly so the
  • 00:35:21
    thing is like it could make what even
  • 00:35:24
    more on iips would it just destroy the
  • 00:35:26
    balance
  • 00:35:28
    potentially organic yeah that's the
  • 00:35:30
    thing like you add you add iips you you
  • 00:35:33
    change the the whole game and then add
  • 00:35:37
    progression and stuff and I would say
  • 00:35:39
    you lose organic because Suddenly It's
  • 00:35:41
    not offline games it's not exactly whatw
  • 00:35:44
    says yeah exactly reviews goes down
  • 00:35:46
    because that's the thing you have
  • 00:35:48
    reviews you have the YouTube channel you
  • 00:35:50
    have the like 177 million of
  • 00:35:53
    views the other games with 200 million
  • 00:35:56
    diads like like with all the all the
  • 00:35:58
    cross promotion and everything and it's
  • 00:36:00
    like it makes sense to go from one game
  • 00:36:02
    to another game and then again uh this
  • 00:36:04
    is in the eyes of um stores like organic
  • 00:36:08
    traffic
  • 00:36:11
    again they won 151 day 725 day 302 day
  • 00:36:17
    why you sharing this Jesus share share
  • 00:36:19
    the screen now yeah people are asking
  • 00:36:22
    about the retention and like yeah 5% day
  • 00:36:26
    90 retention basically no way no way no
  • 00:36:31
    no no yeah no yeah I mean I believe that
  • 00:36:34
    even if we switch to Google Play yeah
  • 00:36:36
    yeah it's even better well almost the
  • 00:36:39
    same almost the same
  • 00:36:41
    little anyway
  • 00:36:44
    yeah I mean it's pretty cool yeah let's
  • 00:36:47
    end it there that's incredible well done
  • 00:36:50
    the podcast wow yeah Mr
  • 00:36:52
    Morano yeah if if anybody knows anything
  • 00:36:55
    else that we're missing not knowing or
  • 00:36:57
    whatever feel free to poke at us we
  • 00:36:59
    would be really glad if somebody can
  • 00:37:01
    help us solve this mystery that's the
  • 00:37:02
    thing uh I I don't really be believe
  • 00:37:06
    anyone has any other information and I
  • 00:37:08
    think like we actually brought a lot of
  • 00:37:10
    new information to the
  • 00:37:13
    table that this is this is how I think
  • 00:37:16
    it
  • 00:37:17
    is all right ranking um ratings UA I
  • 00:37:20
    have no [ __ ] idea organic no CL 15
  • 00:37:24
    out of 10 10 100 I don't know maybe the
  • 00:37:27
    answer to monetization Is to have none
  • 00:37:29
    of it and therefore you have all of it
  • 00:37:31
    exactly yeah yeah
  • 00:37:33
    because less is more have all the
  • 00:37:36
    traffic L is more
  • 00:37:39
