Background

UK-based Trailmix Games was founded in 2017 with the belief that "snackable" games can make a positive impact on people's lives. The Supercell-backed company's first game Love & Pies, released in September 2021, quickly became a big hit on the merge-2 puzzle scene and generated millions of installs.

Challenge

Trailmix was finding it tricky to effectively reach untapped audiences in a super competitive and crowded mobile gaming genre. The gaming company knew it had to devise a different game plan to stand out from the big and well-established companies.

Solution

Trailmix discovered RiverAds and its unique rewarded ad unit, Playtime. This rewarded model, combined with RiverAds's exclusive inventory, offered a promising opportunity for Trailmix to diversify its marketing mix and reach new audiences.

Impact

After launching its first campaigns in the US, RiverAds's Playtime outperformed its primary growth channels by a long way. Trailmix saw that the tutorial completion rate for Love & Pies increased by around 30% and RiverAds's users displayed higher engagement. They also managed to reduce CPIs by 33% and boost installs by 30% in the German market.

Looking Forward

Following this success, Trailmix remains committed to scaling Love & Pies and plans to launch new GEOs with RiverAds and explore new promotions.

Within a month, RiverAds's activities helped boost installs by 30% in the German market 30%
