We can think of Hybridcasual games as mobile games that have a hyper casual / casual core game loops and simple mechanics, which are expanded and amplified with features and monetisation models of mid-core games.

Retaining the positive instant action, snackable essence of a hyper casual / casual whilst offering deeper and more complex game systems.

These create longer-term motivation, increased retention and player progression. They drive higher baseline life time value through “In App Purchases” alongside “Ad-based monetisation” methods.

The rise of hybridcasual games has quietly become a dominate force in the app stores.
