Minecraft and Pokémon Go are the two most difficult mobile video games to play. This conclusion was reached by a study conducted by the Mozillion site, which is based on the analysis of searches carried out on Google to complete the different levels.
Apparently, these two titles generate many doubts among the players and they turn their concerns into the search engine to be able to overcome the problems that arise. According to that report, those two games outperform others such as Stardew Valley, Genshin Impact and Subway Surfers in difficulty.
To carry out the report, 130 popular video games that have a mobile version were analyzed. In addition, the analyses related to searches were carried out with the Google Keyword Planner tool.
Data for the period from January 2021 to 2022 were taken into account and updated with information from March of this year.
Then, the references of these games included in the HowLongToBeat.com website were taken into account, in which users record the time it took to complete them.
In this way, Mozillion drew up different lists. One of them focuses on the 25 most sought after games by players to get help completing them.
The first one on this list is Minecraft, which generated 61,000 global searches on Google last year. Of these, 81 percent corresponded to searches for traps.
In second place is Pokémon Go, with 30,560 monthly searches, of which more than half were also linked to traps, and Stardew Valley, with 24,600 searches for help to complete the different phases of the title.
Another fact that the report leaves is that 97 percent of searches for Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, whose analyzed volume of searches was 6,780, were related to tricks.
At the same time, a list was presented that includes the 25 most sought after mobile video games worldwide. In this section, Minecraft is also the winner, with 24.9 million monthly searches worldwide. Behind are titles such as Solitaire (16.6 million) and Free Fire (13.6 million).
The games that take the longest to complete
Other rankings included in this study are that of the 10 games that users take the longest to complete as well as those that are completed in the shortest time.
Dead by Daylight, ibwith 635 hours and three minutes, is the game that takes users the longest to complete.
It is followed by Mobile Legends: Bang Bang, with 401 hours and Player Unknowns Battlegrounds, with 168 hours and 53 minutes. These figures contrast with those presented in the last three titles in this list.
These are Pokémon Go, which was surpassed in an average of 93 hours and 32 minutes, Minecraft, with 89 hours and seven minutes, and Yu-Gi-Oh! Duel Links with 85 hours.
On the other hand, there are the 10 smartphone video games that require the least time to be finished. In this section, Solitaire is the leader, which is completed in just five minutes.
It is followed by Honor of Kings/Arena of Valor with 19 minutes and Helix Jump lasting one hour. At the bottom of the list are Fruit Ninja (two hours and 30 minutes), Arknights and Flappybirds, with three hours each.
The use of video games on smartphones has grown exponentially recently: b70% of Latin Americans play more than ever on mobile devices, according to a recent report prepared by Cisneros Interactive in conjunction with Justmob, which was based on consumption habits in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Mexico and Peru.
According to that report, more than half of the respondents, men and women over the age of 18, claimed to play on their smartphones on a daily basis. While in most of the countries surveyed it is about 50% accurate, in Argentina and Colombia there were slightly higher percentages. Of those users, nearly 75% have at least three gaming sessions a day. In terms of time, half of the respondents reported spending more than 40 minutes a day with different mobile games. Mexico is the only exception, where the proportion reaches 60%.
