So what has Playrix done with Gardenscapes that so many have failed to do? The History of PlayRix & Gardenscapes It’s the first major successful innovation in the puzzle genre since 2012 when Candy Crush launched on mobile. Gardenscapes has made many companies within the puzzle genre turn their heads.
Gardenscapes: New Acres by Playrix has now been a staple in the Top Grossing charts since September 2016, showing no signs of fading. In particular, each of these games has shown that there is more than one way to monetize off a puzzle game audience. Playrix, a veteran casual game developer, has created two huge hits on mobile: Fishdom and Gardenscapes. King’s still on top, but there has been a new contender slowly moving up the charts. Turn back the clock only one year, and it felt like the matching/puzzle game genre was locked up and dominated by one player: King. Looking forward to what’s to come! Gardenscapes’ Big Pivot
