Toon Blast’s Shield Clash competition offers one of the highest multipliers we’ve ever seen for maintaining a win streak (10x after five consecutive wins).

Club events perform poorly in the casual market, so most casual apps don’t invest in developing complex club events. But this lack of investment is a self-fulfilling prophecy, as casual club events tend to be simple competitions where players collect points for their clubs—not the kind of gameplay that’s going to reverse this negative trend.
Royal Match’s Hidden Temple mini-game helped increase revenue 25% 3Do3D by driving engagement in the base game and offering strong short-, medium-, and long-term goals. During this event, each base game level awards one token that players spend to clear tiles and reveal gems on a game board. Gems fill slots on a gate, and filling all slots advances players to the next stage. This structure creates three tiers of goals, which ensures that players are always close to achieving something: a short-term goal of clearing multiple tiles for each gem, a medium-term goal of filling all the gate’s slots, and a long-term goal of completing all five stages.
