980 in scoring, 40 above the threshold.

New alerts

Twenty-nine, ten of them meaningful. The rest — one country, zero reviews, noise.

Mystery Dumpling: Unbox ASMR (Brocker Bus Studio) — the salvo of the day: third day since release and already 43 countries, #5 in Czechia, 212 reviews/day. Not a gradual rollout but a carpet launch across all geo at once.

Bus Jam: Traffic Trouble (Gimica, 6 days) — 7 countries, strictly tier-1, #10 in Singapore. A textbook start of a phase, and the context is below: Gimica is drying up two older titles at the same time.

Amaze Romantic Goddess (10 days) — a day ago one country and #38, today 25 countries and #7 in the US, reviews +131% (221/day). It entered Grossing the same day — the money started at the same time as the buying.

Dear Passengers (Joy Fast Food, 13 days) — 5 → 24 countries in a day, #3 in Ireland, 205 reviews/day.

Bracelet Maker: DIY ASMR (Brocker Bus Studio, 32 days) — 23 → 44 countries in a day, #2 in Indonesia, the install bracket jumped to 1M+.

The chameleons are coming in a wave: the new Chameleon Party (13 days, 6 LatAm countries, #8 in Argentina) and Chameleon Paint & Hide Online (17 days, 1 → 11 countries in a day, bracket up to 100k+), alongside a live Chameleon Paint: Hide & Seek in 24 countries. Three clones of one mechanic in the charts at once — the mechanic works.

Drama Story: Exposed Prank (22 days) — 9 → 21 countries in a day, #11, bracket up to 500k+, cheap geo: LatAm, PH, TH.

Slow Mo Strike (KAYAC) — an iOS alert: JP+US, #22. The Android version meanwhile has been sitting in 44 countries with #1 for a week — they've started the second platform. And a quiet Track Star (Gryphon, iOS, 7 days) — #9 in Denmark with geo BE/DK, a fresh soft launch.

Breakdown

The earliest today is Bus Jam: 6 days, narrow tier-1, a publisher with a playbook. Mystery Dumpling wasn't caught early but caught at the moment of the salvo, and at three days of life that is the beginning. Amaze Romantic Goddess and Dear Passengers — one-day explosions from a single country to 25 and 24; the first one also has Grossing right away — watch that one first. ChungaChanga (5 days) trimmed its geo 16 → 14, but intensity is rising: 1,431 reviews/day against yesterday's 1,172, and it's holding #1 in Norway.

Movement

Jelly Busters iOS 25 → 27 countries at #3 — Moon Active carries on. CubeAway (GOODROID) jumped 27 → 37 countries on Android with 35 on iOS — both platforms, but the game is five months old, the scaling is late. Jewelscapes 17 → 19, bracket up to 100k+. People Jam 20 → 27 countries, bracket up to 500k+.

Rollbacks: X-HERO 6 → 3 countries and #4 → #18 — yesterday's exit from soft launch got put on the brakes. Astro Merge 9 → 4 (#20) and Don't Pop! 19 → 13 (#12) — both Gimica, see below.

Royal Smash (Cypher) holds both platforms: Android all 47 at #1 and Grossing in 43, iOS 35 countries with #1 in Turkey.

Publishers

Brocker Bus Studio — publisher of the day: Mystery Dumpling and Bracelet Maker at once, a portfolio of ASMR casual titles, pouring into both. Gimica — a third run in two weeks: the budget from Astro Merge and Don't Pop! has moved over to the fresh Bus Jam. Rollic — Endless Puncher on both platforms: iOS steadily #2 in 9 countries, Android 9 countries and Grossing in 6. GOODROID — CubeAway on both as well.


Scaling Radar — Money, August 10

Money on the day of the salvo

Amaze Romantic Goddess — a rare profile: a geo explosion 1 → 25 countries and an entry into Grossing (5 countries, #50) within the same 24 hours, catalog $0.99–99.99. Usually weeks pass between the buying and the first revenue — here monetization is switched on from the doorstep.

Healthy stories continuing

Cyber Strike Manager Idle (Payge, 31 days) — Top Free crawled 8 → 22 countries over the week at #4; Grossing wanders across 13–39 countries in coverage, but holds rank #11–12 all week. The "monetization ahead of buying" profile is in force.

People Jam: Seat Puzzle (Solid Games, 59 days) — a quiet converter: bracket up to 500k+, Grossing in 10 countries at #28, 2,201 reviews/day — the highest review pace on the list.

Endless Puncher (Rollic) — Grossing expands slowly, 4 → 6 countries with a catalog up to $179.99; the iOS version is in the top 3 for a second week.

Volume is growing, money isn't

Bracelet Maker — bracket up to 1M+ at 44 countries, zero in Grossing — but the catalog has a single item at $2.99: the model is purely ad-based, and an empty Grossing is what it deserves. Same box for Mystery Dumpling and ChungaChanga — no purchase catalogs at all, 43 and 14 countries of pure advertising.

Drama Story (22 days) — bracket up to 500k+, the $0.99–9.99 catalog is there, zero in Grossing. At three weeks that's still "early," but in a week or two the question will become pointed.

Jewelscapes (31 days) and Chameleon Paint & Hide Online (17 days) — both brackets up to 100k+, both with a catalog, both without Grossing — the same waiting list.

Meowdoku (108 days) — unchanged: 35 countries, #1, 10M+ and zero in Grossing for weeks now. The diagnosis is the same: the declared catalog doesn't work, the game lives on advertising.
