Poland is 24th in the world when it comes to revenues from game sales, so let’s take a look at the most popular game genres based on the analyses provided by Newzoo (January 2014), ESA (April 2014), and Polish Gamers Research for Digital Dragons Conference (May 2014).

The top of the game genre in Poland
rank is occupied by puzzle games, which take the lead with over 50% of
respondents playing this kind of casual games. The leader is followed by arcade
& action games (chosen by 43% respondents), with strategy and card games

race/simulation games with 31-33% in the ‘what do you play’ answers and between

especially if you follow one simple rule.
Game genre matters in localisation
