Q4 2020 Performance of Top City Building Games on Android in Latin America

As the year 2020 came to a close, the city building game genre remained a popular choice among mobile gamers in Latin America. Sensor Tower provided detailed insights into the performance of several top city building games on the Android platform during the fourth quarter of the year.

SimCity BuildIt from ELECTRONIC ARTS saw its revenue peak at $16K in the final week of December, marking a consistent rise from $10K at the beginning of October. Downloads for the game also showed an upward trend, with the number reaching nearly 36K in the last week of November. Weekly active users fluctuated throughout the quarter, with a high of 438K in early December before settling to around 394K towards the year's end.

Another ELECTRONIC ARTS title, The Simpsons™: Tapped Out, experienced its highest revenue for the quarter at $15K in late November. Downloads saw a peak of 65K in early October, while weekly active users hovered around the mid-400K range for most of the quarter before ending at 416K.

Social Quantum's Megapolis: City Building Sim had modest revenue figures, with the highest weekly revenue at just over $1K in late December. The game's downloads remained fairly consistent, averaging around 22K to 24K per week, while weekly active users saw a slight increase, ending the quarter at 22K.

The Tribez: Build a Village by Game Insight showed a more variable pattern in revenue, with a notable drop to $391 in early December before recovering to $693 by the end of the month. The game's download numbers were significantly lower than its counterparts, with negligible figures by mid-December. The weekly active user count for The Tribez reflected this decline, falling to 1.5K users by the quarter's end.

Lastly, MY.GAMES B.V.'s Global City: Building Games which was released in mid-2020, showed impressive growth in its first full quarter. The game's revenue increased from a mere $17 in mid-November to almost $3K by the year's end.
