This week we have a look at the social gaming industry in France. For a long time Kobojo was the biggest player in France and for ahead of the local competition. With the rise of Telaxo and Ubisoft’s successful entry into the social gaming space Paris-based Kobojo finds itself on the second place according to DAU and even on the third place according to MAU.

Kobojo’s most successful title is the Arabic version of PyramidVille which has been published by Peak Games and counts 2,100,000 monthly active users (MAU) and 410,00 aily active users (DAU).

Ubisoft, second in the charts according to MAU and third according to DAU, is most successful with its TV franchise series like The Smurfs & Co, House M.D.: Critical Cases, and CSI: Crime City.
