Game Ranking Analysis: -December 2025
**1st Place: Worpuzz**
With the release of Worpuzz Breeze, the usage time for the Worpuzz series increased, and by December, Worpuzz had doubled Trinkle’s numbers. Since many new games were added to Worpuzz, the 🌱 sprout emoji appeared here and there. It seemed cute and sparked curiosity.
**2nd Place: Trinkle**
Trinkle is originally a fun game. I thought people were just discovering it late, but it might also be because I changed the emoji on Trinkle - I’m not sure of the reason. Trinkle originally had no emoji, but I wanted to add a star, so while choosing, I settled on 🤩. It gives the feeling of “Wow, this is fun! I’m impressed!” and the emoji caught people’s eyes, suddenly jumping to 2nd place. So to verify if the emoji effect is real, I changed it to ⭐ and plan to compare December and January after a month.
**3rd Place: Numzzle**
It ranked last in July and August, and bug fixes were delayed. But as soon as I fixed the bugs, it quickly jumped up.
**4th Place: Moeum Quiz**
Moeum Quiz is in 4th place, but it’s more that other games did well - Moeum Quiz didn’t do anything wrong.
**5th Place: Omok**
Omok had dropped lower, but in December, as new users increased, it raised its head again.
**6th Place: Baseball Game**
Baseball Game has the ⚾ emoji, and the cat holding a bat is cute. It’s also a classic game - I included familiar classic games for people who come to Soosooland and don’t know what to do at first. Some might think I’m neglecting Baseball Game since it’s in last place, but there’s not much to do for it. I just thought of this - if I had split Baseball Game into Korean Baseball, English Baseball, and Number Baseball with more buttons, the probability of playing Baseball Game when clicking randomly would have increased, but then the individual game rankings on the platform would have dropped even lower. The combined score is already 13th, so it didn’t make it into the popular rankings in January.
What this means is that the rankings 1-6 shown here are totals by series. Worpuzz combines 10 repos, Numzzle adds 5 repos. Moeum Quiz combines 3 repos. Baseball Game, Trinkle, and Omok each have only 1 repo. The popularity ranking on the platform is the popularity order of repos, and the graph here is the popularity ranking by series.
Also, adding 🥉 3rd…🥈 2nd…🥇 1st… to the top games seems to intensify the “rich get richer, poor get poorer” effect. Actually, I created statistics and rankings to make it easier for users to choose, but once a game rises to the top of the popularity rankings, it seems to be prioritized when users make selections.
I heard Netflix and YouTube struggle with the same problem. “Popular” sorting blocks opportunities for new content. However, if you help users choose, it becomes “rich get richer, poor get poorer” like now, but if you don’t help them, they’ll just leave after pondering. So either way, it’s better to keep them on the site, which is why I calculate popularity rankings and arrange game buttons in that order.
## Conclusions
- A successful child raises the family.
- Fixed the bugs, and the family prospered.
- Decorated with emojis, and the family prospered.
- Classic games are already complete.
- The rich get richer, the poor get poorer intensifies.
