- We all remember how popular Fall Guys once was, but today it's overshadowed by its clone that has over 5 times the downloads. How did this happen?

was an honor to help on this, your research and music choices on this was great!! I get hype watching it back lmao
Ok
the research in question is heavily inaccurate
Spagonia Night is a good song
Lol
In what way?
In a random school it's 100% real that a kid would think that fall guys is an copy of stumble guys
bro stumble guys is so bad only if fall guys was on mobile...
Literally everyone in my school played the ever living crap out of stumble guys, I swear I can still hear that song stuck in my head
@@demetris8842 bro fr stumble guys so ass because of the ping gets higher everytime i play
@@Bootlegninja515then it's your internet dummy
@@Bootlegninja515 that proves that if you wanna get like REALLY popular and have a lot of downloads, you need to have a mobile verison of ur game
For the record: downloads DOES NOT equal active players. The actual count likely does not equal that
Stumble guys has way more active players tho
In the United States the playercount might be similar but worldwide stumble guys is way bigger, mobile games is basically the ONLY way to play games in most countries, there is NO pc gaming or console gaming
I can guarantee you that at least here in Brazil Stumble has more players than Fall guys by a huge landslide.
As the other guy said, the big majority of players on less rich countries only have access to mobile games, so that market is actually way huger than you think.
@@lordpillows762Yep since in the us almost everyone has a console or a pc but with other countrys mobile gaming is the top dog.
stumble guys is mobile right?
Really reminds me of how minecraft was a clone of another block game and now is the most popular game ever😅
Yeah
wow actually forgot this is the way it went lol
@@DeadArizen 😀
Wait really? What was the game it copied?

the fact that just a week after this comment fall guys announced that they are coming to mobile
The reason I believe for stumble guys blowing up was probably because it reached schools. I remember last year was my freshman year, and around that time, being after winter break, everyone started downloading it and playing matches during class, rallies, lunch, everything. The game was so popular that you could barely sit with someone at lunch without having stumble guys downloaded.
same
except im not even close to freshman i think
idk what freshman year actually is, you americans are weird
I was suddenly asked to stumble with my friends during class
@@ẞooßysfreshman is 9th grade
Same during class i saw someone played it
I remember playing during quarantine with my zoom class.
I feel bad for Fall Guys, it got popular then died, then got popular again and died again ☠️
Then fall guys goes to mobile
Long story short the clone passed the original by releasing on mobile. Fall Guys tried to be a higher quality experience on PC + Console but sometimes a low effort clone game "wins" by being in the right place at the right time. Thanks for this video Henke! was cool to learn this story.
Yup. It's part of why Among Us blew up. Fall guys was popular first but it was pay to play. So people went looking around and found this free (with cosmetics) game that basically anyones phone in the past 10 years could run with minimal issues.
Pretty much instantly Among Us was more popular and Fall Guys was struggling. Even now it wasn't until the end of July 2023 that Stumble Guys was more popular than Among Us.
right man in the wrong place.
Another reason is because fall guys was originally paid but now it's free
Well it's just missing the elephant in the room, Stumble Guys gets updates weekly while we can still hope for a Fall Guys update in some months.
Mobile legends 😂
Fall Guys takes SO LONG to get you into a game!
Takes forever to find 60 players, then it takes like a minute to show you a camera view of the course you already know, then there's the chance of losing in the first round due to the more competitive nature and having to wait way too long for the next game
Atleast they make sure you have real people, half the time on stumble there are like 28 bots in a 32 player match
@@TheTFKids it's because you are at such a low level the game can't find someone as bad as you and they put bots
@@Dani_38 they put bots in normal lobbies to pad out the player count. Plus the game is pay to win with the special emotes like punch
@@CoolestColor the emotes are mad easy to get, at least when I used to play the game during 2022. There were literally the same 3 emotes rotating in those 10 passes. I don't know why people call the game pay to win. If you play enough tournaments and get good placements, you can get enough gems to buy a pass and get the emotes. Of course you think the game is pay to win if you play it a week and then stop.
@@Dani_38 I played for one and a half months (I’m pretty sure) still couldn’t get any emotes
Fall Guys and Stumble is Oreo and Hydrox all over again.
Lmao I was thinking that
Or geometry dash and the impossible game
@@gamealpha99 they are WAY to different to be considered "copy's" Fall Guys and Stumble Guys are to similar
@@gamealpha99you can make the impossible game in geometry dash but not geometry dash in the impossible game
@@gamealpha99 That one was inspired even RobTop said it
I found the game about some meme videos on tiktok, the best way to describe this game was a "so bad its good" quality and so i downloaded it and actualy ended up enjoying however i started to get mad about when most players uses the punch or kick emotes (which can be obtained from the battle pass) since i was a f2p it ended up me quitting the game. Nice video btw👍
yea, and then after the Mr Beast update they can do tons more shit to kill you, like throw a case of money, turn into a ball and speed up and grab you
getting a friend that has never played the game and farming wins on bots kinda removes the bs emote problem
Yeah the game is literally pay to win, so dumb.
I think there's actual love and compassion from Mediatonic when they make the game Fall Guys while Stumble Guys is just a lazy cash grabbing rip off. And people only play it because it's on more platforms than Fall Guys and because their friends play it.
EDIT: The replies are just getting FLOODED with these kids who are just mad cuz bad at Fall Guys.
i fully agree stumble guys sucks and we should delete it😊
@@maksstuffdrawz9286Agreed
@@maksstuffdrawz9286yea ok lol dream on
Yes but they suck at managing the game. Late console release, going exclusive to epic game instead being in both steam and epic, no mobile release despite the game basically being perfect for a platform like that and also taking its sweet time to go free to play.
Mah
I feel like it's literally just because Stumble has a mobile port that children on their grandma's phone can download
just because a game has more downloads doesn't mean it's better though, at least Fall Guys had care put into it
Nah bro, at least the developpers of Stumble Guys didn't abandonned their game and still are updating it lol
You know its a good 104.443 years when henke uploads
6:14 no way it's me
thats awesome lmaooo
Woww
I wish Fall guys would do a little more for the community, I play this game all the time & it still has the same old system
Dude I remember playing stumble guys back then and thinking "huh, it's an exact mobile clone" and uninstalling it. Had no freaking clue it became so popular recently.
Same bro, it got really popular like about 3 months after i uninstalled the game
same, but now i love stumble guys i used to hate it
the thing that made me fall in love with fall guyus was lily leapers 360 diving but when they removed it, it ruined the game because they couldve just added for everyone to 360
For some reason I never trust online games when they are a copy of the original, because it feels soulless and the vibe makes it feel like its empty and that players are not even real
But this time Fall Guys feel empty and soulless and Stumble Guys like an original piece
@@shnz_edits its been a year since i played that game do i might try to play it again sometime idk
I was cunfused why my little neese said when she saw me play fall guys "why are you playing the ripoff just play the real game"
Oh god, I never thought I would see the day someone would say that. But hey, the steam community is already just filled with brain-dead kids, so what did I expect
Cast her into the fire
W neese
@@IDKSS shut up.
L neese
A Epic Games game vs literaly gambling adiction for 4 year olds
I swear if Fall Guys was launched on mobile it would surpass Stumble Guys quite easily
100%
And if it was free
@@Miweoro It did it tho
@@Ghostrick74 oh
The reason that stumble guys has more downloads than falls guys
Kids
**cough** babies
Actually it’s because Stumble Guys is on mobile so it is more accessible since most people play on mobile
Miners
@@anonymous7024i love miners
@@TheGoldenIsCool Actually it’s because Stumble Guys is on mobile so it is more accessible since most kids play on mobile
I also think this could be due to different platforms having different content rules. For example, my nephews have a Nintendo switch and would watch Switch Streamers play Fall Guys before getting copy righted by Nintendo. Due to that, a lot of their switch streamers went to Stumble Guys to play the game.
1. Game was free
2. They can play the game without copyright
3. It allow more interactions for their fans to join the game compared to Fall Guys
1:35 This is false. Fall Guys didn't run at 30FPS on PS4. It ran at 60FPS.
something something mobile game + mr beast sponsorships
And they’re milking that collab for months, and it’s getting pathetic.
also rayman killers
@@StarCheesybro it was just a month and the whole game was centered around him because it's cool. And it's not like the mrbeast level was the only new one or the Mr Beast skins were the only new ones.
@@ouy5996 one month? are you kidding? 🤣
this might be because of my potato laptop at the time but, while playing fall guys, i couldn't play more than 2 rounds, rarely getting to round 2 because it constantly disconnected me. I was playing normally and suddenly everyone starts to slide and i get sent to the menu. Everytime
Bad connection and/or bad laptop for games.
That’s connection issues
I love how you can crank 90’s, hit clips, and gun down people as fall guys characters soon
true
Why hasn't Fall Guys just *sued Stumble Guys*
yeah, thats easy money
i think they are late but they are really dumb for not doing that early
They can’t
@@gman_406 can, if they find a reason.
Impossible to do. If they do they'll simply lose.
WE LOVE YOU HENKE!!!
fangirls be like:
I used to be a fan and I am happy to see you are still uploading vids. Very nice, very nice indeed.
Stumble guys also now has ranked, workshop(same thing as creative mode), many more maps, map types, skins, skin types, events, tournaments, abilities powers, levels, shards, new rewards, friends, bot fights, rankings and waaaaayyyy more!
It's you are stating information about the game so I will stay calm.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAÆĐĤƆŒĄƏƐAAAAAAAAAAHHHĤĤ
Another reason stumble guys beat fall guys was the way to get the skins while fall guys you had use real money ONLY to buy the skins stumble guys made it so you could pay for the currency or just earn while playing games plus the newer collab there’s a free to play currency to get the good skins people want
wrong, you get a free skin every season and events too
@@Xeno1_3 true but most of them aren’t as good as the stumble guys ones
their just cosmetic, it doesn't change how good a game is
the emotes are another story, but they REQUIRE money to get
tbh stuble guys skins are just a unity free human asset with a 420p png slapped on them they are really low quality
Bro really forgot CODM and PUBGM when he told the competitors of Stumble guys. Shit's more competitive in mobile than PC
You know it's a good 1935102721925413190263713183940091622935385028631171045646270598132448050 hundred thousand million billion trillion century when Henke uploads
Mediatonic, the company responsible for fall guys also made amateur surgeons 1, 2, and 3
3:25 you say that stumble guys had 50 million active players when they announced they hit 50 million downloads
I think the reason why Stumble Guys passed Fall guys was because the game was faster having 3 rounds instead of 5 like fall guys and easier.Also was on mobile like fall guys never had.Fall guys community tried to convince Fall guys to make atleast a mobile version of it but never had and said they never will.Which is the second problem
Epic games problem😂
Steam player count is not a good metric to use when Fall Guys hasn't been available on Steam for years now
bro recreated the whole oreo lore 💀
I actually play both Fall Guys and Stumble guys and I'd like to list some advantages of Stumble guys which people rarely discuss on.
Stumble guys controls are definitely easier to grasp. In fall guys, I always have a massive skill issue when performing high and long jumps where I'm sometimes stuck there for seconds whereas I don't have similar skill issue in Stumble guys (I started playing these games nearly at the same time)
Stumble guys also show some creativity in maps like there are slide levels, nerf gun levels, car racing levels. (Fun fact: the idea of Speed slider level in Fall Guys is based on Super slide level in Stumble Guys)
Regarding the advantages of Fall Guys than Stumble Guys, I don't think I need to talk much about it because the comment section have already listed them all.
To sum up, I don't think there exists a "right or wrong" scenario of choosing whether to play Fall guys or Stumble guys. Those who prefer playing Fall Guys will still play fall guys but Those who prefer playing Stumble Guys will still play stumble guys
Hey at least fall guys mobile is coming soon
I heard some things about this on Twitter. Would be an interesting development after this video
I Hope, maybe can save it
Fall guys released to mobile stumble guys is cooked
Maybe not 100% cooked because it didn't launch on IOS (because of the Apple vs Epic Games lawsuits)
Fax 😎
FRRRR
Android have’s world wide
the fact that I've never heard of stumble guys before this video lol
i can always count on your videos for great information and a good time!
You can say that fall guys 'fell off'💀
Kinda amazing how we all made fun of the game while it's real fans kept talking and know they're more than right.
Kitka games reaction is gotta be like:
Ahh hell nawh lemme purchase my game again
ngl, I think this is the first tiime I've ever heared about stumble guys
There are some games like this that go under the “mainstream” radar but are still very popular
@@Henke_YTand they copied the game brawl stars too (another mobile game), mostly everything apart from gameplay.
@@StarCheesyBrawl Stars ?!?!
@@StarCheesyu mean the main screen
@@TheGoldenIsCool font, shop, main screen, some skins, buttons, art styles.
just imagine if fall guys released on mobile...
Fall Guys is releasing on mobile in the next months because Room 8 Studio was added on the tile screen and on the Ninja Turtles collab Tweet Google Play replied
most people wont play unless fall guys optimizes their game for low end devices
It’s happening this year!
@@nuttin_here they are working on optimising it, a leaker confirmed it
Nothing will happen it will grow in imagination
I was with a kid (8-10) and he said "Do you play stumble guys" and I said "No, but I used to play fall guys". He said "Wow imagine playing a ripoff fall guys" AND HE WAS NOT JOKING, HE THOUHGHT IT WAS A RIPOFF!
Average mobile kid be like:
ikr@@StarCheesy
Good kid 👏🏻
@@IDKSS you shouldn’t be talking about a little kid in 2023 if you’re stuck in the 19th century
Why would you judge your recent statistics for Fall Guys off of steam player count if Fall Guys was removed from steam…
That was an extreme oversight on your part and hurt this report/video’s validity
a lot of people only played fall guys to get that one pancake fortnite skin lol
L O L
Fall guys actually collaborated with among us, and I only realised it because I was playing fall guys when I saw a character styled like an orange amongus with the among us cheese hat
MR CHEESE
I feel like the biggest reason for stumble guys taking off is the fact that big time you tubers like moistcritical and alpharad were ironically playing it leading to others joining in
lol you're over crediting them, they make content based on what's most popular, so they get $1 per 1k views.
Aka chasing the trend
@@MangaGamified look at the time Charley and Jacob made their videos
And cross reference it with stumble guy's first crossover
@@whyareyoureadingthissmh Yes? they check sites what are the most popular games back then, hence they uploaded when those games are the most popular, I'm pretty pretty good at telling that, thank you but what seems to be the problem?
@@MangaGamified did you even read what I said-
@@MangaGamified did u read his comment
Hydrox: First Time
something i didnt see you mention was fall guys was taken off of steam in favor of the epic games launcher, so no new players after the free to play update were counted in your player counts
Fall Guys Mobile should be released
another reason stumble guys is doing well is its easier to run, got friends with not as good computers and thanks to stumble guys, i can play with them
Genuine question. Why dosen't the company behind Fall Guys just sue them?
Stumble guys is one of the most obvious clones I've ever seen. Even it's name screams rip off.
because fall guys has no legal basis,fall guys and stumble guys are a whole game genre,they dont own it
@@Someone-by6jmthey copied some game files though.
@@StarCheesy L
@@StarCheesy and fall guys copied a whole minecraft gamemode but removed the shovels and just made the platforms fall automatically.
and then they named it using a terrible pun
@@poisoncrab at least they changed something by making it hexagons. But suptumble guys just copy and pastes the whole game.
bro if they would’ve just put fall guys on mobile it would’ve stuck around and remained popular
It’s happening, alongside a fall guys x fortnite event
Only thing I don't like about modern-day Fall guys, is the fact that crowns went from being a rare curretsy. into something to grind for 4 in a infinite battle pass.
I also miss when you could by rare items in the shop with crowns you earned instead of the new in game money that costs real money.
@@GG______ It felt like getting something amazing with your hard-earned wins. Now, it just doesn't feel like anything to win a round of fall guys anymore...
Before Fall Guys was free, Stumble Guys was the game i played instead to get the same experience. Crazy to think that the small game I was playing long ago would turn into a huge thing!
I'm watching this because of Stumble Guys getting on switch somehow and I got jumpscared by DrDisrespect
That one didn’t age well :(
The only reason why stumble guys has more downloads is because it is a mobile game and that it has always been free. If you say that stumble guys are better than fall guys then you haven't played fall guys before. Stumble has a lot of downloads but no active players. It is so easy to win in stumble guys because 99% of players are bots.
99% of players definitely aren’t bots. Stumble guys is really good but it doesn’t compare to fall guys. Fall guys should be beating stumble guys but it isn’t. Stumble guys are just smarter at advertising and the way they sell their game.
You can play stumble guys on mobile pc laptop and now xbox but i think that mobile support really got stumble guys where it is
Now this is high quality content
The only thing why we playing stumble guys us cuz fall guys is PC only but now it's time... FOR MOBILE RELEASE
Somehow I have never heard of stumble guy until this video
Lucky guy, people who ever heard of it probably played it because most of us are poor
7:55 Blud seriously forgot The Rabbids 💀
Ironically im here after Fall Guys is on phone
If only Fall Guys removed the bug where the game just randonly closes but there are still soumds in the background...
It’s fixed now
You don’t mess with the OG. Fall guys will always be superior.
Same with “block game vs Geometry Dash”
still hate that a clone won
still got the choice to sue, yet they didn't 😨🙏
They don't share the same assets
i mean like, stumble guys isn't a parody of fall guys, you're right about the assets part but, stumble guys noises sort of sound like fall guys noises y'know when they jump@@ARR2W
Nah, it’s already to big.
It's just the name some levels and the idea that are borrowed I don't think they would win
@@ARR2Wbut the name the levels the gameplay the skins... can they just get away with it?
Aint no way I'm playing Fall Guys. Stumble Guys FTW
Bruh
Agreed
StumBIe guys is for kids like you who don’t like originals 😂
@@StarCheesy Brother what?
Also making Fall Guys Epic Games exclusive is a certain death for a game.
yeah, looks like epic managers are dumb cashgrabbers
yeah, especially since it always logs you out of epic and crap, it's the reason i uninstalled it after having it for like a month.
The oreo of video games.
The real oreo is minecraft, which slightly copied infiniminer
1:39 switch has left the chat
Im surprised fall guys didn't sue them yet 😗

But, the fall guys player counts are inaccurate. That doesn’t include all players including console players.
Tbf if fall guys was on mobile it would have peaked more
@@lobanoubm4234. fall guys mobile is coming this year. Probably in august.
@@lobanoubm4234. or june
I see some problems with this as you are using Steam Stats, that shows only stats on steam and Fall guys is no longer on steam. Yes, you can still play it on their, but it fully moved to the competitor Epic game store. We will never see player numbers trough epic as it has no way to showcase active player like steam dose.
I just remember that it got shoved into Epic games, messed things up for accounts and then completely dropped off a cliff from popularity.
for me I wanted to play fall guys but couldn't do so as it is not available on phone
I play both but hate that some of the emotes are crazy OP in stumble guys and some ppl dont have em, i enjoy fall guys more 😅 and the game has been fun imo
I remember getting stumble guys when fall guys was pay to play and just thinking it's a rip-off with probably fake multiplayer but then I realised I could play with my friends so the multiplayer was real but eventually we got bored off it and would only played it when we had absolutely nothing else to do. Eventually I forgot about it and I was watching mr beast's country tournament when all of a sudden, THIS VIDEO IS SPONSERED BY STUMBLE GUYS!
The amount of bots is dependent on the person with the lowest crowns funnily enough
@@cogbait it’s always bote
I was wondering why there were so many new players on fall guys recently, but that is because they probably got their first controller for christmas to play the game, stumble guys being free on mobile solves that solution therefore attracting the 7 year olds that have yet to be able to play fall guys, maybe eventually they will be able to get their hands on the better game IMO
Fall guys is coming to mobile and fortnite this year.
I had an xbox that had stumble guys on it, but it stopped working. Im currently playing stumble guys not because it’s better than fall guys, but because im bored. Once fall guys mobile releases, goodbye stumble guys.
1900s: Oreo surpassed the original as popular
2000s: stumble guy supposed surpassed the fall guys as mistaken
Bro fall guys is so much better than stumble guys
i'd like to point out that you're looking at steam stats for fall guys. but most players are gonna be on epic games launcher now since you can't even get it on steam anymore
