Games that quickly lost popularity and my opinion about them

Hello, cherries! Recently, I had the idea to create a post about games, but I didn't know which one: reviews are too banal, and then I had a thought: why not discuss sensational games that quickly lost their popularity, which I did. In this post you can read the results of the work I have done. Have fun reading!

1) Block Blast!
Block Blast is a puzzle game where you need to stack various block shapes on a grid, clearing lines to accumulate points. The goal of the game is to fill rows or columns with blocks so that they disappear, and the player earns points and makes room for new blocks.
Some of the features of Block Blast are: simple and intuitive gameplay; a variety of levels with increasing difficulty; vivid graphics and smooth animations; daily tasks and rewards; no time limits. The game is available online and does not require any download or installation.  The developer is Hungry Studio.

There was a time when everyone in my environment was playing this game 24/7: in class, at recess, at home, on the street, on the bus, it was just a nightmare. Well, I also decided to download and try it. The toy is really entertaining, you can kill an hour or two. Now I don't really notice how everyone is playing block blast, maybe I'm tired, maybe the hype has passed and that's it, stop playing, I don't know in general. 

2) Squad Busters
Squad Busters is a MOBA mobile game developed and published by the Finnish company Supercell. The global release took place on May 29, 2024. The game is a crossover of other Supercell video games featuring characters from Clash of Clans, Clash Royale, Brawl Stars, Hay Day and Boom Beach. Gameplay: In various modes, several players fight each other on a small map while simultaneously collecting resources (crystals, coins, spells, hearts, keys, boots with turbo) and recruiting heroes to your squad.
The game features 39 characters from various Supercell games and the Transformers franchise. Each character has a certain rarity (common, rare, or Epic) and belongs to one of six classes.: all-rounder, striker, defender, healer, sprinter and supply man. The developer is Supercell.

The game has been playing for almost a year now, but its popularity has quickly subsided, unlike the same brawl or clash royale. I tried to play it, to be honest, it wasn't interesting. There is no interest as such, which is present in your favorite games, everything is very boring and monotonous.

3) Good pizza, Great pizza
Good Pizza, Great pizza is a pizzeria simulator in the genres of casual, indie and simulation games. The essence of the game is to fulfill pizza orders from customers and earn enough money to keep the pizzeria running. It is necessary to improve the store, install new equipment and stock up on new pizza toppings in order to bypass the competitor pizzeria Alicante. The game is available on PC, Android and iOS platforms.

Some features of the game: More than 80 customers with unique preferences and orders; equipment upgrades to become a real pizza master baker; Simple, fun and addictive gameplay. The developer is TapBlaze.

Personally, I really like this game, I play it every day and I don't get tired. Now there's a game like this, only with coffee - I didn't like it at all. I also tried downloading hacking, the effect of the game is not the same at all. Recently, I often came across videos on this tt game, but now they are not visible at all, apparently, people have stopped being interested in it.

4) Toca boca
Toca Boca is a series of children's mobile video games developed by the Swedish studio Toca Boca. The main goal of the games is to create your own virtual world, not to complete levels. The user can create their own city and do interesting things for them: build a house, open a store, upgrade the hero with clothes, hairstyles and other small things. Some of the advantages of the game are: fascinating and safe content; educational element; variety of worlds; regular updates; availability on all devices. 

As a child, I played toku boku 25/8, I was very drawn out by the process of creating a design, etc. Now it's kind of boring. At first, this game was overloaded with their "mini-series", then everyone forgot about it again. Then the character "gourmet" from the game appeared in Tiktok, who regained his lost popularity. And now it's all forgotten again, probably for the best.

5) Bubble kvass (sorry, I couldn't help but add)
Bubble Kvass is an Android mobile game parodying Brawl Stars. The name of the game is related to the meme of the same name. The goal of the game is to open boxes with new characters and help your hero collect coins. The game has two modes: Bubble Run and Bubble Jump. In the first case, the hero moves horizontally, jumping over cars, in the second — vertically, rising up on platforms. The game developer is Ztep GC Studio. The game was released on December 8, 2021 on the Android platform, and on January 21, 2022 for iOS.

At the time of 21-22, this game was considered something cool and wildly funny. Now it's just an app to remember old memes and maybe make fun of them. The game became popular due to the review of it by many bloggers, but it was quickly forgotten by everyone, remaining in the shadow of the original.

Maybe I'll release the second part. I hope it was interesting for you to read) Thank you very much to everyone who read to the end. We will not say goodbye for a long time, until new cherry meetings!
