Space Ape

Space Ape at a Glance

Space Ape Games is a United Kingdom developer founded in 2012 and based in London. The studio employs over 100 developers and has released 11 games on PlayPile, acting as both publisher and developer for the entire list. Their primary focus remains on mobile platforms, with seven titles available on Android and another seven on iOS. One legacy mobile device title also exists in their catalog. While they cover several genres including Strategy, Arcade, Puzzle, Shooter, and Role-playing games, Music is their dominant category with six releases. The studio saw limited output in the 2010s with only three games, but this slowed down slightly in the 2020s to just four new titles through 2023. Their quality track record shows strong performance for a small sample size. The average IGDB rating across their three rated titles sits at 83.3 out of 100. Two of these games earned great scores of 90 or higher, while one received a good score near the 70 mark. There are no mixed or poor ratings in this specific dataset. Transformers: Earth Wars from 2016 and Fastlane: Road to Revenge from 2017 both achieved top marks of 90/100. Beatstar, released in 2020, scored 69.9, which falls into the good range but sits lower than their other highlighted hits. Recent activity includes Chrome Valley Customs in June 2023 and Country Star in May 2023. Earlier releases like Boom Beach: Frontlines appeared in late 2021. The company formed a partnership with Supercell in 2017, which aligns with the release of their highest-rated strategy title during that period. Despite having a solid average rating and a clear niche in music games, the total number of releases remains small for a studio of this size. Their catalog does not show a massive volume of output across multiple decades, but the titles they have published generally maintain high user approval on the platforms where they are available.
