Limassol-headquartered international game development company Nexters has announced that the company’s 'Island Hoppers' game has been released globally.

Formerly known as 'Island Questaway,' the global launch of Island Hoppers follows the successful completion of the game’s soft launch.

During the soft launch period that started in November 2021, the game exhibited remarkable growth, accumulating over $30 million in bookings and more than 12 million downloads worldwide, the company noted in a statement.

'Island Hoppers' already placed 7th in the Farming games category by revenue and is now ranked 5th in terms of downloads by September this year according to mobile app market intelligence company AppMagic.

According to Nexters, 'Island Hoppers' is now entering a scaling phase, with increased marketing investments expected to fuel revenue and player base growth. As of September 2023, it is being enjoyed by over 1 million players monthly.

The game this year also participated in the Green Game Jam, organised by a United Nations organisation targeted at the promotion of the ecological agenda.

'Island Hoppers' is available at AppStore and Google Play and, according to Nexters’ website, sees players helping the character Emily who has travelled to a distant tropical island in search of her lost brother and "gets tangled in an exhilarating whirl of activity."
