Analyst notes (AI-assisted)
Note written 2026-08-25; the live figures above take precedence over any numbers in it.
A casual quiz game adaptation of the TV show franchise, featuring AI-voiced characters and subject-based progression.
This title holds $880/mo in residual revenue with a modest but stable player base (9 concurrent, 37.5% retention). The 66% positive rating and skip-friendly design suggest core gameplay resonates despite low current visibility. However, the license-dependent IP, minimal dev support (10+ months silent), zero promotional activity in 12 months, and tiny audience (4,672 lifetime units) make this a watch-and-wait opportunity rather than an acquisition target. Best suited for a publisher seeking cheap catalog depth or a mobile-focused studio exploring console back-catalog licensing terms. Most realistic play: watch.
- Risk: Title is based on 'Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader' TV franchise; licensing agreement with rights holder (likely Sony Pictures Television) may have renewal clauses, territory restrictions, or sunset provisions that limit future monetization or regional expansion.
- Risk: Developer Massive Miniteam (under THQ Nordic parent) has not posted publicly for 10+ months; unclear whether studio is actively maintaining the title or if it is in dormant status.
- Risk: Casual quiz game genre has high saturation and declining mainstream appeal; player peak of 15 in last 30 days suggests difficulty acquiring new players even at 85% discount.
