Posted by: TP Newswire    Tags:  Aakrit Vaish, Alok Kejriwal, Android, Angry Birds, Bollywood, Daily Active Users, DAUs, Flurry's analytics, Fruit Ninja, Games2win, Parking Frenzy    Posted date:  March 13, 2012  |  No comment



‘Parking Frenzy’ has scaled to the seventh position on ‘Free Games’ section in the Android market in USA making it probably the first game from India to have featured this high in the space. Traditionally, the top slots are occupied by games such as Angry Birds and Fruit Ninja.

A product of Games2win the Parking Frenzy game has been downloaded 2.3 million times (as per Google Android statistics) and played over 8.5 million times in a span of just 10 days since it was launched.

Flurry’s analytics revealed that the game has 2.2 minutes of median time spent, 20.7% returning users and 350k Daily Active Users (DAUs). Alok Kejriwal, CEO of Games2win said, ”I am happy that we have scored this hit, but honestly it’s about time many more Indian Gaming Companies began featuring in the top ranks on the Android and iOs Apps market places.”

“Parking Frenzy is not a Bollywood or a Cricket Game. It’s a game about parking cars in an increasing level of difficulty. That’s a game that people like to play all over the world, not just in India.” Alok observed. According to Alok Kejriwal, Parking Frenzy’s biggest downloads are from the USA, UK, Germany, Spain and the Netherlands.

“Going forward, we are aggressively creating more ‘global’ titles for Android and iOs, with the sole intention of being a global gaming company. “ Noted Alok Kejriwal Aakrit Vaish, Director of Operations, India, Flurry, said, “It’s not just about downloads, but also usage. That is where Parking Frenzy is up there with the biggest smartphone games in the world. Good to finally see an original made in India production make it.”
