Released in 2018, Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery was the first mobile game to bring the Harry Potter IP to mobile, and the result has been a resounding success by any standard. 

Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery is a narrative based simulation game in which players step into the shoes of a Hogwarts student: the ultimate fantasy of any hardcore Harry Potter fan. Players go to classes, learn magic, play quidditch, and embark on quests befitting the Harry Potter universe. Engagement is gated by an energy system, which is one of the top drivers of monetization.

In the first half of 2024, Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery maintained its position as the #1 Adventure Simulation game by revenue, holding an impressive lead by 5x compared to its next best competitor. Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery was also Jam City’s #1 game by downloads in the first half of 2024, perhaps reflecting the power of licensing one of the biggest global IPs in the world. It is also Jam City’s #1 midcore game by revenue and the publisher’s #2 game by revenue over the same time period, edged out by another Jam City IP adaptation: Disney Emoji Blitz.

Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery generates more than half of its revenue from the United State, with the next highest geos being large European countries like Germany, the UK, and France.
