Case Study Duration: August 2021 – October 2024
Our partner is a globally recognized gaming studio based in France, known for developing immersive mobile games across Casual, Hypercasual, Simulation, and Midcore categories. With a strong presence in mature and emerging markets, they consistently rank among the world’s top publishers.
After transitioning from a soft launch to a global release, the game gained traction through paid user acquisition campaigns. However, organic installs remained stagnant, limiting long-term growth. While paid efforts provided temporary spikes, a sustainable strategy was needed to:
