Quickly running through what the core loop of CM entails. Bizarre as all this may sound, this recipe works and the game can be very engaging and fun to play, even if you are not a social casino fan! Read more about our thoughts around this category and its future in our 2019 Casino category prediction post.ĬM successfully takes the traditional slot machine experience (the heart of all gambling games), marries it with very light mid-core mechanics of base building, attacking and stealing from other players, and supports all this with a strong social loop over brilliant live-ops, a well balanced economy, great gameplay UX and a casual art style - all resulting in delivering a highly unique slots experience with significant market traction. “Slots” are the largest revenue generating sub-genre of the Casino category, occupying a 78% share. “Slots” generate anything between an average of 70-80% of real world casino revenues, and the same engagement behaviour is mirrored in the Social Casino space. Category revenue grew by +24% YoY, and the “Slots” sub-genre contributed to ~70% of this growth.

When breaking up the mobile gaming market according to Game Refinery’s taxonomy, the “Casino” (aka Social Casino) category is the third largest by revenue - and it has steadily been growing over 2018.
