Large Developers, International Apps Own This Week's List of Fastest-Growing Facebook Games by DAU

A group of five top Facebook developers hold over half of the spots on this week's AppData list of fastest-growing Facebook games by daily active users, including most of the top 10. Most of the apps that broke through the large developer wall are from international origins: Top Gainers This Week - Games Name DAU Gain Gain,% 1. CityVille 18,591,715 +1,620,113 +10% 2. Millionaire City 2,678,013 +198,868 +8% 3. 寵物戰爭 235,763 +161,834 +219% 4. Texas HoldEm Poker 6,981,466 +132,997 +2% 5. Café World 3,428,097 +132,895 +4% 6. แฮปปี้คนเลี้ยงหม 689,945 +123,055 +22% 7.

Backyard Monsters 801,215 +45,681 +6% 17. Barn Buddy Game 473,222 +44,340 +10% 18. Mahjong Trails 308,992 +42,774 +16% 19. Happy Island 614,662 +42,363 +7% 20. YoVille 837,358 +41,430 +5% Zynga is the big presence again, with CityVille and three other games adding about two million DAU. The company is now within a few million DAU short of the high point it reached last April. Its DAU as a percentage of monthly active users, however, is at an all-time low of 20 percent, reflecting CityVille's rapid bloat. CrowdStar also made a significant showing, with It Girl, Happy Pets and Happy Island. This week was a big one for It Girl, as the game pushed above the significant million DAU point for the second time. However, the developer still lost over half a million DAU overall as many older games declined. The only two new games on the list, 寵物戰爭 and Texas HoldEm Poker - Deluxe ★★★★★★, are both from Chinese developers, while แฮปปี้คนเลี้ยงหม is proving that Thai users are another southeast Asian group with heavy social gaming habits.
