- Word Tiles (Agave Games) — 5 days, entered TR top 21. Agave is testing a word puzzle on its home market, no reviews yet. The earliest point on the list.
- Bracelet Maker: DIY ASMR (Wejoy) — 31 days, VN top 25, 5 reviews/day. The DIY/ASMR niche, a Vietnamese publisher warming up its home market.
- Goods Sort Match (Gamovation) — 81 days, entered CZ top 19 at 100 reviews/day. The volume is already there, the charts are only starting to catch it — an EU deploy is underway.
- CookieRun: Crumble (Devsisters) — 4 days, top 1 HK, 537 reviews/day. A major IP, launch organics, not our profile.
- Five more — noise: one country, around zero reviews/day (NG/PK/HK/US locals).
Most interesting by stage
1. Word Tiles — 5 days, one country, Turkey. Lowest by score in the top, but by stage this is exactly the beginning. If BR/MX/ID show up in 3-5 days, that's the entry point. It's first precisely because of its age.
2. Lordrush (Century) — 14 days, 18→22 countries, holding #2 in India, reviews +11%. The key thing: among the new geos, the US, GB and NL for the first time — it has come out of a tier-3 test into Tier-1. Not "early" anymore, but far from the peak.
3. Bracelet Maker — 31 days, one country, but 5 reviews/day at the start, and Wejoy usually expands fast. Keep it under observation.
4. Police Chief (VoyagerOne) — 86 days, 20→26 countries, 180 reviews/day, top 3 FR. Added AE, IL, TH, IT, FI, IE — finishing off its second geo wave. Caught mid-phase, not at the start.
5. Hotel Legacy (Century) — 16→24 countries, top 4 TR, at an age of 200 days. An old title given a new budget — a rare but working pattern.
Movement
- Meowdoku! (Oakever) is cooling off: 34→28 countries, reviews 2000→1090/day. The peak has passed.
- Royal Smash! (Cypher) fell out of the top into runner-up, reviews 960→480/day. The wave is over.
- Cat Mafia (yesterday's best new signal) didn't develop — still 2 countries, went to runner-up.
- Warline (Powerfantasy) — holding 40 countries, but reviews 660→230/day, they're spending noticeably less.
- Dropped out: Profile Perfect (Lion), Revlo, Happy Restaurant 3D.
Publishers
Century Games — two titles in the top (Lordrush + Hotel Legacy), both growing by geo. A portfolio salvo, the publisher as a whole is what to watch.
VoyagerOne — Police Chief in the top plus Hollywood Merge (42 countries, top 3 PH) in runner-up. A portfolio too.
Oakever — Meowdoku + Amaze GO!, but both are already declining.
