Hypercasual mobile game publisher SayGames said its 40 games have been downloaded more than two billion times, including a billion downloads during 2020 alone. And now the company is starting a $10 million developer growth program for 2021.

I’ve never heard of the Minsk, Belarus-based company, but measurement firm Sensor Tower confirms that according to its research, SayGames games have been downloaded more than two billion times. The big hits include hypercasual titles — those you can play in a minute or so — such as Johnny Trigger, Sand Balls, and others.
