Mobile developer Wooga’s latest hidden-object game Agent Alice finds success

Popular genres on consoles include things like first-person shooters and fighters. On mobile, hidden-object games are one of the dominant forces.

Developer Wooga revealed that it’s latest free-to-play release, Agent Alice, has already racked up more than 3 million downloads on iOS and Android after only four days after its launch. The hidden-object game, where players must find various items in a cluttered scene, is Wooga’s biggest launch ever. The company claims it is getting around 800,000 new downloads for the game every day. This is an example of the kind of casual game that can find an audience and make money on mobile by appealing to players that do not usually spend $60 on a console or PC release.
