  • The best practices and tips for creating effective strategy game ads based on the game’s case study

 

01 How Squad Busters Distributed and Performed Its Ads Across Different Regions and Media

 

One of the key factors that contributed to the game’s success was its wide and effective distribution of ads across different regions and media. According to AppGrowing, Squad Busters has generated a staggering 23,776 advertisements across 50 regions and 12 different media platforms. This massive advertising push is a testament to Supercell's commitment to making Squad Busters a global sensation.

France, Singapore, Canada, and Germany are the main regions where advertisements are targeted, while high-growth markets such as Brazil, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Mexico are also receiving significant attention.

Over the past three months, the game's advertising efforts have been primarily focused on Google Ads and Meta Ads, with the former accounting for as much as 53.98% and the latter around 30%.

 

02 How Squad Busters Created and Designed Its Ad Creatives and How They Appeal to the Target Audience

 

Another key factor that contributed to the game’s success was its creative and appealing ad creatives. From April 20, 2024, to July 18, 2024, Squad Busters launched 23,900 ads, with a notable 40.80% in the form of In-Feed ads.

The preference for video creatives is evident, accounting for approximately 52.36% of the total ads. This strategic choice aligns with current trends, as video content tends to engage users more effectively than static images.
