      No, please just don‘t. The reason these games worked was precisely because they were optimized for the mobile market.
      Modern Combat 3 and 4 were the best. Gangster Vegas was good too until they decided to make it a lootbox cash grab game. Blitz Brigade, Gangster Rio and Miami were good games for their time, but aged terribly.

      It's the masses and the lowest common denominator approach. Games quickly reached the "casual" layers, meaning that they now reach billions of users. And it's just incredibly profitable to just do a quick low effort asset flip - sometimes even with stolen assets - than it is to actually try to produce a good game, that requires effort. The masses are mostly ignorant and easy to trick.

    I actually kind of liked this company. They had Dungeon Hunter series which had somewhat of a unique world-building and equipment based gameplay, although heavy in microtransactions. But they pretty much made Diablo Immortal before Diablo Immortal. I've tried latest entry in the series, the sixth game, and it was just a ARPG clone that you can buy from template companies - they simply copied their logo on the thing and published it. It had very little to do with Dungeon Hunter series.
