Supercell Abandoned Boom Beach...

This is why Supercell has abandoned Boom Beach...

When was the last time you played Boom Beach?
Yeah, unless you’re one of the few active Boom Beach players left, chances are it’s been a long, long time.

Since its global release in early 2014, the game always stood in the shadows of Clash of Clans, and before long several other Supercell games.

On the App Store, it’s currently 174th in the charts for strategy games, and the story is pretty much the same on Google Play.
Despite amassing over 100 million downloads over the years, the game is in a pretty sketchy situation, and the few remaining players are left wondering what the fate of Boom Beach will be.

In the last 30 days alone, another 170 thousand players have quit Boom Beach, and YouTubers and streamers abandoned the game long ago.
Last month on Twitch, the game reached just 123 peak viewers. The game’s lost almost all of it’s interest, and at this point there’s no chance of a comeback.

I mean, take a look at this Google Trends Graph, comparing Brawl Stars, Clash of Clans and Boom Beach. That red line right at the bottom? That’s boom beach. It’s never been even close to as popular as Supercell's other games, even on release.

So where exactly did Boom Beach go wrong, and what is going to happen to Supercell's least popular game?

In my opinion, Boom Beach was destined to fail, pretty much from the beginning.
Being Supercell's third global release, it had big shoes to fill. At the time both Hay Day and Clash of Clans were genre defining games at the top of the charts, so whatever Supercell dropped next had very high expectations.

Clearly seeing the success of a multiplayer raid based casual strategy game as being a highly lucrative niche, Supercell decided Boom Beach was going to be the next big thing.
I remember when it came out and we were all talking about it in school.
When my friend first told me about it and tried to explain the game, he said It’s Clash of Clans but with boats.

So, I downloaded the game that afternoon and gave it a try.
And yeah, at first glance, it’s pretty much Clash of Clans with boats.
But I quit the game within around a week of playing at the time,
for two main reasons. Firstly, you could only attack from one direction.
