Financially speaking, Clash of Clans , Monster Strike , and Puzzles & Dragons brought in the most global revenue last year on iOS and Android, with Supercell, King, and Japanese developer Mixi bringing in the most revenue on a company-wide basis.
In terms of monthly active users, Candy Crush Saga finished top of the pile on both iPhone and Android phone, and Clash of Clans also finished in second place on both platforms. Taking third place on iPhone was another one of King's match-3 ventures, Candy Crush Soda Saga. On Android phone, however, Subway Surfers finished third.
Digging even deeper, Crossy Road was the most downloaded game on iOS and Android in the UK, although Clash of Clans was the biggest earner in that region.
