One of the biggest games in Japan is slowly catching the attention of North American players.
The mobile role-playing title Puzzle & Dragons has surpassed 3 million downloads in North America. That’s a major milestone for the free-to-play puzzle game that has players traversing dungeons, matching gems, and collecting dragons. This will help developer GungHo Online continue to generate revenue — although the company will likely still make the bulk of its cash from Japan. In that country, more than 18 million people have downloaded Puzzle & Dragons, which accounts for more than 15 percent of Japan’s population. At points in 2013, the puzzle-RPG was making around $5 million every day largely thanks to its status as a phenomenon in Asia.
