In the fast-paced world of mobile gaming, hypercasual games have carved out a niche by offering instant entertainment that anyone can enjoy. Here are the top 10 hypercasual games for Q2 2024.

Hypercasual games are often mobile games that are easy to play, usually free to play, and feature very minimalistic user interfaces. According to data released by AppMagic, a mobile market intelligence tool designed for market research, the market has seen a decrease of 11% compared to Q1 2024, yet it has still amassed 3.38 billion installs.

Currently, about 70% of the top 10 consists of longtime favorites maintaining their positions: Pizza Ready!, Car Race 3D: Car Racing, Race Master 3D – Car Racing, Going Balls, Bridge Race, Magic Tiles 3, and Build A Queen.

Wood Nuts: Screw Puzzle, a game by Zego Studio, which alone in this quarter generated 31 million downloads. The game has been experiencing active growth following a brief plateau in January 2024, but it has faced a downturn since June 2024.

In this game, the user solves various puzzles by unscrewing everything on the screen. The gameplay becomes more intriguing due to the “physics” affecting the movement of wooden blocks in different ways when the player moves the screws. With no time limits, the gameplay is relaxed, and the ASMR sound of wood shuffling and creaking enhances the overall user experience.

The concept here is quite similar: users need to move screws around to drop all the wooden blocks on the screen. Unlike the first game, this one includes a time limit, adding an extra layer of complexity. Players can also enjoy various cosmetic skins, enabling them to customize everything on the screen.

And lastly, Brain Test: Tricky Puzzles by Unico Studio, which has acquired 22M installs in this quarter. The game has existed on the market for a very long time since its release in 2019. In November 2023, its downloads picked up again, but as of now, the slight downtrend is on.

Brain Test: Tricky Puzzles is a simple 2D Hypercasual puzzle where players solve various problems, each with a unique scenario. Solutions can range from logical and mathematical to visual and motoric, with some challenges requiring the user to rotate their phone—a captivating game mechanic.

Despite markets seeing declines compared to the previous year, there has been continued growth, especially with one of the top hypercasual games, Pizza Ready, which has increased its downloads.
