In this article, we will use AppGrowing, a mobile advertising and marketing intelligence platform, to analyze the advertising strategy of Ant Legion: For The Swarm, a strategy game published by Funtap, a publisher from Vietnam.

One of the key factors is its creative advertising strategy. From 2023-05-02 to 2023-07-30, Ant Legion: For The Swarm created 1,261 ads in total, around 36.9% of which are in the form of Interstitial. Interstitial ads are full-screen ads that cover the interface of an app until closed by the user or after a set period of time. They are usually displayed at natural transition points in the app flow, such as between levels or activities. Interstitial ads are effective for capturing user attention and generating high click-through rates.

Another factor is its choice of ad formats and media. Ad creatives are mainly Vertical Video. Its proportion is around 67.72%. Vertical videos are videos that are intended to be watched in portrait mode on mobile devices. They are optimized for mobile viewing and can deliver immersive experiences to users. Vertical videos are also suitable for showing the gameplay and features of Ant Legion: For The Swarm, such as the ant collection, nest building, and alliance formation.

The peak of ad volume in a single day was 427, which appeared on 2023-07-03. This indicates that Ant Legion: For The Swarm has a strong advertising budget and is willing to invest in user acquisition. The game also has a diversified media portfolio, advertising on various platforms such as Facebook, Google Ads, Unity Ads, Vungle, and AdColony.
