Scaling Radar — September 23

2026-09-23

40 candidates, more than half a dozen substantive. A day with real movement, not noise rotation.

The read

Rap Star: Idle Clicker (Dragonfly, 178 days) — 30 → 37 countries, NG #2, 1,154 reviews a day. A grown title in its best week: day leader by review velocity, first Grossing unit. Hard to chase at this geo — but the way to catch it is through money, which is only 4 countries so far.

Find Em All! (Agave, 138 days) — 24 → 31 countries, DK #16, 463 reviews a day. Agave has two titles today: Finder reached 31 countries, and Word Tiles went 7 → 18 with a first-ever IE #1. Stretch claim — publisher of the week.

Alliance: Air War (Art of the State, 23 days) — 13 → 26 countries, CZ #30, +11 in a day. 26 countries in 23 days with wide geo — young and fast. Outgrew the "small edits" bucket literally in a day.

Survival FPS: The Last Stand (Wondergames, 62 days) — 10 → 20 countries, DK #19. A shooter/survival without leader-class reviews, but the geo holds. If the buying is honest — already decent.

Shoot Die Repeat (Heseri, 72 days) — 6 → 17 countries (Android), IE #17, plus iOS 10 countries, DK #3. A roguelite shooter on both stores at once — a rare bird in 2026 — plus 2 countries of Grossing.

Meow Sort — Color Puzzle (UUTEAM, 76 days) — 1 → 12 countries, KR #21, 173 reviews a day. After CarLoop, UUTEAM has a second title in the radar. Classic casual that started with Korea.

Cleaning ASMR: Tidy & Relax (Kitten Doll, 28 days) — 10 → 16 countries, TW #9, 19 reviews a day. A third cleaning-ASMR from a portfolio publisher with wide geo.

Movement

Catedrop (Goodroid) — 17 → 27, BE #18, fourth day of repacing. Stamp Solitaire (ABI, 146 days) — 5 → 9, CL #27 at 198 reviews a day. Fashion World (Sleep Stories) — 15 countries, EG #28, on day 91 — not new, just in the list for the first time.

Pulling back in a day: Fashion Arena 36 → 32 (at yesterday's 845 reviews/day) and Ragdoll Survival 26 → 21.

Publishers

Agave — two titles moving at once: Find Em All (31 countries) and Word Tiles (IE #1). A portfolio day.

Sprigame — Fashion Arena (32, IN #3) and Word Finder (20 countries) — a third day of scoring, but one of the two is slowing.

_Geo gains here are over three days (from Sep 20); day-over-day movement is called out separately._

Money — only what the stores showed themselves

First units of revenue

Rap Star: Idle Clicker (Dragonfly) — Grossing 4 countries, CL #59, at 37 countries of Top Free and 1,154 reviews a day. A bare leader-clicker with one unit of money: reviews are already there, but monetization still rides on luck. Worth watching whether buying pulls receipts up to geo.

Shoot Die Repeat (Heseri) — Grossing 2 countries, VN #55, at 17 countries of Top Free. Disciplined: both stores moving, revenue appeared on Android but still point-wise.

Installs

BNStarwing — bracket crossed the threshold (first time on this rung). Track monetization so it does not slip out of sight — its Grossing is still empty.

Volume without brackets

Fashion Arena (Sprigame) — 36 → 32 countries in a day, IN #3, 845 reviews a day, 100k+ installs, Grossing empty. Huge review velocity and no money — that is not "potential", that is a finger in the wind if the receipt does not arrive by the end of the week.

Survival FPS (Wondergames) — 20 countries, 500k+, Grossing empty. Half of Wondergames's portfolio lives without revenue — follow the second title and compare their fates.
