Business of Games: Trending game review, Tile Family: Match Puzzle game

Trending game review: Tile Family: Match Puzzle game, It’s a new entrant on the Top 100 grossing game 🏆

The game has fake ad-styled mini-game modes 🤔

The gameplay is hybrid: Mahjong + solitaire gameplay with Royal Match decor as meta.

1. The core gameplay is Mahjong + solitaire; the developer has designed the gameplay around a storyboard — where you’re decorating the home/and in a way helping the characters with certain props and their utility in the environment.
2. The game’s storyboard objectives remind me of HOG games too.
3. There are mini-games in it, which mimic the fake ad-style mini-games.

The game is meant for a female audience 👧🏾

The FTUE of the game is presented as story-driven, setting a strong narrative foundation right from the start. This approach not only meets but exceeds expectations set by the game’s store page creatives and UA creatives. Doesn’t it make a fascinating case study for how to hook players from the get-go with creatives?
