Chapter 68: Free to Play?

Qiu Bin didn't expect to have so many sales, why? Because the target users of this game are highly overlapping with "Plants vs. Zombies", and the loyal players of "Plants vs. Zombies" are all on Chen Mo's side!

If there is no bet on either side, then forget it, and now that there is a bet, these loyal players of "Plants vs. Zombies" will definitely endure until the second month to download "Guardian of the Holy Spring" even if they want to play "Guardian of the Holy Spring".

In this way, Qiu Bin is equivalent to naturally losing some players.

Fortunately, the channels of Imperial Dynasty Mutual Entertainment are very powerful, and under the publicity of various recommended positions, "Guardian of the Holy Spring" has dug up many players who do not play "Plants vs. Zombies", and in the end, the data of "Guardian of the Holy Spring" exceeded that of "Plants vs. Zombies".

However, Qiu Bin doesn't dare to say that he has won now, and he has to see how Chen Mo's new game goes.

Soon, Qiu Bin found Chen Mo's new game "My name is MT".

"Sure enough, I'm going to use anime to promote it, but how is the gameplay? Can you really reproduce the huge worldview of the anime? ”

Qiu Bin was a little suspicious and clicked the [Download] button.

"Huh? That's not right! ”

Qiu Bin was stunned.

Because he found out that the game turned out to be free!

If it is a paid game, then this button should not be [Download], but [Purchase].

Chen Mo wants to bet with him on the moon, and then makes a free game out?!

Qiu Bin was shocked, there is still this kind of operation?

The assistant asked, "What's wrong?" Why are you so surprised? ”

Qiu Bin had a dog's expression on his face: "Chen Mo's new game is a free game!" Free to play! ”

The assistant was also stunned: "Can't you?" If he comes out with a free game, then, then the number of downloads has gone up, but he is betting on monthly water? ”

Qiu Bin frowned and pondered: "If the game is free, you can only rely on selling advertising space or selling value-added services." However, this is not a lot of money! ”

The assistant stopped talking, and it didn't make sense to him!

Qiu Bin looked at the screen of his mobile phone with some puzzlement, but was stunned again.

After a couple of sentences, the game is ready?

Qiu Bin clicked on it and saw that this game is only more than 170M, which is not much bigger than Plants vs. Zombies!

The art resources used in "Guardian of the Holy Spring" are all high-definition, and the entire game installation package has reached nearly 400M, which is much more than "My name is MT".

Qiu Bin was shocked, with these 170M resources, what did Chen Mo use to make the huge worldview in the anime? Could it be that this is a work of selling dog meat on the head of a sheep?

With extreme doubt, Qiu Bin clicked on the icon and started the game.

After "My Name is MT" was launched, although it did not have the recommended position of the Imperial Dynasty game platform, it received a lot of attention.

The veteran players of "Plants vs. Zombies", the audience of the "My Name is MT" anime, and the people who are paying attention to this gambling contract have all become the first batch of players of the "My Name is MT" mobile game.

Some of these people came for the reputation of Chen Mo's last game, some came for the huge story background of the "My Name is MT" anime, and some came purely for the sake of freshness and excitement.

As a result, these people also encountered the same doubts as Qiu Bin.

This game is actually free-to-play?!

This game is only 170M?!

Originally, a large number of players were hesitant to buy it, but when they saw that it was free, what were they hesitating about, download it first and play it!

Anyway, the game is free.,170M doesn't take up space.,Download it and talk about it.,It's not fun to delete it again.,Anyway, there's no cost.。

Chen Mo was not idle, he advertised the mobile game "My Name is MT" on Weibo and at the end of the latest episode of "My Name is MT".

"The mobile game of the same name is hot! Fight side by side with Mourning Wood and Silly Bun! Completely free with no built-in ads! ”

Of course, this is all a publicity stunt, if it is placed in the previous life, when you see the word "free", most players will scoff: "Another money game!" ”

But this world is different, players are still very simple, as soon as they see "free", and say that there are no built-in ads, players are shocked.

"Free? Does the game download cost nothing? No built-in ads? That, how to make a profit! ”

"Value-added services!"

"Value-added services can be sold for a few bucks! Besides, isn't it up to the players themselves to decide whether to buy value-added services or not, and why don't players buy them? ”

"Yes, Chen Mo is still gambling with others, isn't this death?"

"Let's take a look first, it's free anyway."

After betting on Weibo and warming up the anime, as soon as the gimmick of "free" was thrown, all players were shocked.

Some people were worried that Chen Mo would lose the bet.

Some people can't figure out why Chen Mo wants to do this kind of "public welfare undertaking" that seems to be bound to lose money.

There are also some people who don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement.

In this way, almost all players and viewers who are concerned about this matter choose to download the game to see what kind of free method Chen Mo said "free".

Experience the store.

"Within an hour of going live, there were nearly 4,000 downloads. It's more than three times higher than "Guardian of the Holy Spring", well, it's okay. ”

Chen Mo looked at the download data of "My Name is MT" and was basically satisfied.

In terms of downloads, free games must have a natural advantage, after all, players will weigh it even if they spend 10 yuan to buy a game, although they can be refunded, but it is troublesome and tossed.

Free games are different, you can delete them if you want, and you won't have any hesitation at all.

When it comes to downloads of free games, it is normal for them to exceed paid games by ten times with the same level of publicity. But after all, "Guardian of the Holy Spring" has the blessing of the Imperial Dynasty game platform, and it is already quite good to be able to stabilize the number of downloads that were only three times more than "My Name is MT".

Su Jinyu and Wen Lingwei and others are also paying attention to the real-time data of the game.

Jia Peng said: "The number of downloads is so high, my God, this is higher than the number of downloads of games promoted by those big platforms." ”

Wen Lingwei said: "Nonsense, it's free, it doesn't cost money to download, and it's only 170M in total, and it's a matter of tens of seconds to download it on a wireless network, and the number of downloads must be high." ”

Chang Xiuya said: "Hmm, so the key is to see how many people charge money." ”

Su Jinyu was also beside her, and she pointed to a few data on Chen Mo's screen with some confusion: "Store manager, what does this mean?" ”

This is the management background specially made by Chen Mo, and it is usually on this background to send game announcements, adjust game data, send runes, etc.

On the [Data Query] page, there are several data, all of which are abbreviations, such as DNU, DAU, ARPU, ARPPU, LTV, and so on.

For anyone other than Chen Mo, these English abbreviations can be called heavenly books, and they can't guess what they mean at all.

Chen Mo said: "It's not easy to explain, you just need to know that as long as these numbers meet the standard, this game can make money." ”

Everyone looked at each other.

Really? Is it so mysterious?
