Wanna know how your favorite Easytech game stacks out against the rest of the line up? Below is an estimate commercial analytics revenue for last month june 2020 on the google play platform. The data is best looked at as a 1 month sample data only and may or may not reflect actual popularity. Source of data and the analytics is provided by the sensor tower a reputable company that specialize in tracking mobile apps performances. An addition note is that a score of B does not neccesarily means it's not the best because some of these are games are older and were most likely A at their prime time. If you would like to see some of the smaller games performances you can make a request. So here we go:
European War 6 1914
European War 4
European War 6
World Conqueror 4
World Conqueror 5
World Conqueror 3

I believe it has 1-5 Million Downloads and more games need to be like it. (The first mod I played was Wc3.) |

The sad part about it is how little money Easytech makes in comparison to the efforts in making such high quality games. Take a look at the 3 games below made by a Russian gaming company it's an interesting case study because of their fascinating business model. I am currently playing one of their games called ZeroCity, it's kinda fun but the game is really basic and doesn't require much thinking or much strategy at all. These games have standard non-live multiplayer that you can find on many mobile games and they have "events" that are ok but really are designed mainly to tempt the players into spending RL money to get ahead. Also watching commercials is a big part of getting free stuff in the game. Now here is the real kicker..absolutely mind boggling simple idea that this Russian company did that is basically a formula for growing money on trees  They started with 1 game, that's Hustle Castle, they fully developed it and released it and it was very successful then a year or less later they release ZeroCity (ZC for short) which is exactly the same game as hustle castle (HC for short) except they changed the theme of the game, one has a "magic" type theme and the other is a "zombie" theme. So essentially it's just a reskin job, for example HC game has the [archer] class while ZC has the equivalent class that is exactly the same called [ranger]. It's like just a simple mod, that's all it really is. Now after ZeroCity they did it again and after a few mounths made another clone and again just changed the graphics and the theme but the new game is an exact carbon copy of the other 2 previous games. Want to know how that worked out for them?? Take a look:    |

Saltin ,There is Always a Bigger Fish. It's interesting how easytech is working extremely hard but, yet they don't make enough revune. The reason these games are popular is probably due to life simulation or felling connected. These games all target the same factor: Supply and Demand. If you find out what's popular you bulid a game and make excellent revune. The reason easytech doesn't gain revune is probably due to no advertisement or it targets wars and not people's experiences.

I feel like ET doesn't earn as much money since its players are a lot more patient lol. I've been grinding WC4 for 4 years now. I would probably never do that for a game like Battlefront 2. |

Probably due to no advertising. The companys who make famous games do different categories. Like one for war and another for simulation. Maybe easytech Should try and do something like Thouirm game Lab. Which makes strategy Player games. |

If they made Manstein normal and made Guderian cost cash, I feel like more people would buy it. |

If easytech added new Generals or it could also be that their is hackers that aren't on the fourm so theirfore they can't hurt them. |

Maybe ET should make an MMORPG game. Those games make tons of money. Just look at COD mobile. It's trash, but it still makes millions of dollars a year.
Although I don't know how they would implement that, they could add a multiplayer feature in WC5, or make an entirely new game.

I'm curious about the GOG series.
I'm playing all 3 right now (to the detriment of my sanity and IRL stuff), the "gen slot trap" model is very noticeable in GOG 1. The medal grind is also less forgiving in these earlier games, GOG 1 being the least friendly, IMO.
Meanwhile, for GOG 2, Mammoths, Mammoths everywhere! Shoot down those Unicorns! And there's the occasional player with a Blue + Red Dragon pair.

And there's the occasional player with a Blue + Red Dragon pairs. Probably due to the game made up of veterans. The game is around 4-5 years old and most players have had a large experience playing the game. The Unicorn cannon is probably my favorite against fighting Aliens due to laser abilitys. I believe Glory of Generals has only 1-3 Generals free and rest you have to buy. Is there a rank for them or did the reviewers only did the popular games? |

My opinion on this matter is that I think strategy games in the style ET makes are either not as popular these days or are mostly part of a niche that is not so checked anymore. Compared to other titles seen in this thread, that games also have a lot more success because they are capitalising on big brand names, such as shows like American Dad, Family Guy, the Simpsons and so on. Now let's be real...compared to these big names, who heard of European War or World Conqueror? I am not wishing to bash EasyTech or something, but I think it's mostly due the fame of a brand/trend/movement à game is capitalising on. Plus, I think the most popular historical-strategy games are in the RTS category, with few exceptions mostly on PC.

Well advertising would be good but I dont think they gain enough despite their efforts,and dont forget the pressure from the goverment which causes them to lose money even more |
