Conclusion & Next Steps
When the game launched - CCU, sales, retention, DAU all ranked around 90+% with current rating at 97% with 2.1M plays so far. But due to some unforeseen issues occurred within the gaming group org that this project is no longer supported. If we had continued updating - I’m sure this game would’ve been the next best ‘toilet tower defense game’.
