In 2020, Playrix’s ads were the talk of the town in the gaming industry. Without a doubt, the game’s advertising strategy played a huge role in all of this. Interestingly, even though India is the number one country in terms of Homescapes downloads, it is the 35th country in terms of revenue, bringing ‘only’ $5.5 million. Other big markets for Homescapes in terms of revenue are Japan, Germany, China, the United Kingdom, and South Korea. The majority of revenue comes from the United States (more than $1 billion), which is expected. To this day, Homescapes has earned more than $2.5 billion in revenue. Now let’s talk about what keeps every publisher’s heart warm – the revenue. The majority of downloads are coming from India, followed by the United States, Russia, Brazil, China, Mexico, and Indonesia. However, since the second half of 2021, the downloads have been dropping.

Which is why Homescapes may be the next match-3 puzzle game to eat up your time, but you'll want to play it with the sound off.All-time Homescapes downloads stand at more than 540 million, which is impressive and a testament to this game’s popularity. That part doesn't really make a lot of sense, and it's really odd because this can be pretty noisy. The biggest downside is this one new aspect that's rather annoying: When you finish a puzzle, your on-screen companion will clap his hands at you even if you don't move on to the next part. There are also times when a level will have multiple parts, and you have to complete one to move onto the next, and only by solving all will you get your precious stars. For starters, you don't need to match special icons to activate them - you can tap them twice instead.

But while the interior decorating parts of this are limited, and really only motivate you to keep going, the puzzle parts add some fun new mechanics to this familiar puzzle type. You then use these stars to buy new furnishings for your childhood home, or to perform such tasks as sweeping the floor. In Homescapes, you have to match three or more of the same kind and color items so you can clear the board and earn stars. While adding a home decorating component doesn't really make this more fun, this match-3 puzzle game does have some new mechanics that make it stand out a little.
