Weekly UK App Store charts: Interactive story-focused games head into top 10 grossing

Each week app market intelligence firm Reflection, in partnership with UKIE, publish the top grossing and most downloaded games from the UK App Store.

So we’re sharing that data each week to give you an insight into how the UK mobile games market is evolving.

Fiction gets real

For a while now games focused on interactive stories have been rising up the top grossing charts around the world.

For the week of February 5th to 11th, Nexon-owned Pixelberry's Choices: Stories You Play was the fifth highest grossing game on the UK iPhone App Store, while Pocket Gems' (Episode Interactive's) Episode - Choose your Story was ranked seventh.

It's no wonder other publishers are starting to get in on the action, such as Ludia with its new title What's Your Story.

In the top iPhone free downloads chart, Voodoo's Baseball Boy hit a home run for the week, claiming the number one spot. Other new titles in the top 10 week on week were Turborilla's Mad Skills BMX 2, Voodoo's Perfect Tower and AppsYouLove's Unicorn 3D - Colour by Number.
