HELSINKI, Oct. 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --'Drive Ahead!' has
taken the App Store by storm with a ridiculously simple
premise: score points by hitting friends in the head with a
car. Self-published by Dodreams, the gladiatorial arena racing game
has 4.5 million downloads on iOS since mid-May. Now it's also
available on the Android devices.
'Drive Ahead!' is a true social experience. In addition to
single-player missions, you play against friends on one device.
Parents don't like when their children fight over turns to play.
Also, there aren't many games to play when spending time with
friends. The local multiplayer solves the problem by bringing
family and friends to play on the same device.
This concept hits the spot. Four months after installation, 15%
of players still return weekly. Top markets for the game are
USA, Australia, China, Russia
and Brazil.
Dodreams soft launched 'Drive Ahead!' on Google Play in
Australia, Denmark and Finland on September
10. It firmly holds the first spot on Denmark's racing download list. It's ranked #3
in Finland and #7 in Australia on the same list.
The goal of the company has been to create a fair free-to-play
game: You can play 'Drive Ahead!' as much as you like without pay
walls or limiting game sessions. You can even play offline, which
is not guaranteed for mobile games nowadays.
Though 'Drive Ahead!' is a skill game you can play without
money, many watch ads or make in-app purchases to unlock new cars
and tracks quicker. The game's 500,000 daily active users watch in
total over 2,500 hours of video ads each day.
The game is a viral phenomenon with 200,000 fans sharing nearly
800,000 gameplay clips online. In two months, the game's fan base
grew 10 fold to 60,000 likes on Facebook. This growth took Dodreams
to #1 position on the list for hottest trending startups in
Finland, according to Startup
100.
Next, the game will be available globally on Google Play on
October 8, 2015.
