Making business decisions blindly will bankrupt you and your game. But with the right data, you’re never in the dark. This week, we hand the flashlight to CEE Mobile Gaming and Apps Lead at Google, Mariusz Gąsiewski. Nicknamed “The Insights Guy,” he turns numbers into narratives that guide game devs through the emerging trends they can’t afford to ignore. In this episode, he shines a light on the latest shifts in geos, genres, and growth opportunities to give Peggy Anne Salz and Brian Baglow a clear path to the gaming industry’s next big opportunities and advice on boosting user retention and cutting marketing costs.
