Supercell chief executive Ilkka Paananen announced today on Twitter that the Finnish company has hit 100 million daily active players who play its four games.

That is a huge accomplishment, considering the company has just 180 employees. Supercell has four releases on the top-grossing list of the highest-ranking 35 games, a rare feat that companies that are many times bigger are not able to accomplish in the $34 billion mobile games market, where millions of apps compete for consumer’s time and wallet.
