ASO Strategy
Use sub-genre keywords (e.g. 'idle RPG', 'match-3 puzzle') rather than broad terms like 'fun game' — niche targeting drives higher conversion rates.
Update screenshots to showcase seasonal events and new content — fresh visuals signal an active game and boost browse conversion by up to 25%.
Leverage video previews showing actual gameplay within the first 3 seconds — game trailers with early action hooks reduce bounce rates significantly.
