The journey of Voyage: The Grand Fleet was a steady sail, with weekly active users gently decreasing from 3K to around 2K over the quarter. Downloads experienced a sharp decline after September, and the revenue followed a similar trend, with a notable drop from $13K to just $335.
For Save The Pirate! Help! Escape!, the quarter marked a period without revenue, focusing the spotlight on user engagement. Downloads saw a dip from 82 to single digits, and active users decreased from 95 in September to 47 by mid-December.
Lastly, Pirate Kings™ proved its longevity in the market with consistent revenue generation throughout the quarter, peaking at nearly $5K by year's end.
