>popular titles like “MONOPOLY GO!” and “Stumble Guys,” Am I crazy or has nobody heard of these?wrote about 24 hours ago last edited byI’ve heard a few of them mentioned as guilty pleasures and/or something someone gets hooked on for a short time. In my anecdotal experience, have never seen someone pay for anything in them but apparently they’re still making bank!

Mobile gaming is just multiple sets of almost entirely separate cultures from each other and other gaming spaces.

It's basically a knockoff of Fall Guys, if that wasn't obvious. It's not awful though, it could be a fun time-waster.

A significant number of players focus on that game above playing any other, so those gaming communities become insular.

>popular titles like “MONOPOLY GO!” and “Stumble Guys,” Am I crazy or has nobody heard of these?wrote about 15 hours ago last edited byA bunch of people around me played Monopoly Go for like a month and then stopped. Everything I heard about it sounded like it was terrible and full of microtransactions. Never heard of Stumble Guys, but obviously from the name it's just a ripoff of Fall Guys. Niantic has never made a good game, but they sure have made a fortune from microtransaction stores masquerading as games while collecting everyone's location and other data.

>popular titles like “MONOPOLY GO!” and “Stumble Guys,” Am I crazy or has nobody heard of these?wrote about 13 hours ago last edited byDefinitely heard of both of them. Stumble Guys was pretty popular around when it launched, I didn't play it though. I remember them doing a lot of YouTube sponsorships. Monopoly Go I only know about because the Google Play Store seems to keep advertising it.
