Four Quarters' acclaimed roguelike RPG, Loop Hero, has achieved a remarkable milestone: over one million mobile downloads. This achievement comes just two months after its mobile launch, demonstrating sustained player interest even after its initial 2021 Steam release.
Loop Hero plunges players into a time-looping adventure where a malevolent lich has plunged the world into chaos. Players embark on expeditions, upgrading their hero and acquiring new equipment to ultimately confront the lich and restore order.
Published on mobile by Playdigious, Loop Hero's unique premise and innovative gameplay captivated reviewers upon its initial release.
Mobile Gaming's Expanding Horizons
The recent surge in Loop Hero's mobile downloads challenges the common misconception of limited high-quality mobile games. This success, along with the growing trend of indie developers porting premium titles to mobile, showcases the platform's expanding potential beyond casual and strategy games.
While the exact number of paying customers remains unknown (Loop Hero offers a free trial), even a modest conversion rate makes mobile a highly attractive platform for developers.
