Among the popular new games this month, Tencent's &#34;Dungeon &amp; Warrior: Origin,&#34; a work of &#34;Ye Qinghui,&#34; stands out. The original work &#34;Dungeon &amp; Warrior&#34; was released in China as early as 2008 and has been a classic side-scrolling 2D fighting game that has been popular for more than a decade. This mobile version perfectly reproduces the classic style and graphics of the original game. With familiar pixel art style, classic professional dungeons, and smooth combat feel, it has not only attracted a large number of old players but also drawn many new players into the game.
According to the data, &#34;Dungeon &amp; Warrior: Origin&#34; has dominated the top spot on the App Store game's free list for dozens of days since its launch, showing its popularity. It is worth mentioning that the game's popularity has also driven a surge in downloads of its official information app &#34;DNF Assistant.&#34;
In addition to the &#34;new and rising mobile games,&#34; among the new entries on the list, there are two noteworthy &#34;comeback works,&#34; &#34;Starving Wilderness&#34; and &#34;Dust White Forbidden Zone.&#34;
&#34;Starving Wilderness&#34; is a free survival adventure game launched by Kuai Fei Studio in 2018, combining survival, adventure, and strategy gameplay. In May, its popularity soared, from being absent from the list to gradually emerging and entering the monthly download Top 7; &#34;Dust White Forbidden Zone,&#34; a second-dimensional beautiful girl shooting mobile game by Xishanju, also optimized the user experience through a series of &#34;breakthrough&#34; measures, welcoming a wave of download peaks in mid-May.

This month, the adventure game &#34;Set Sail Muffin&#34; under Xindong Network brought a surprise to the gaming market. Its &#34;idle placement&#34; light gameplay not only frees players' hands, but also meets players' fragmented entertainment needs. The game also features team socializing, multiple career choices, dungeon challenges, etc., making the game both fun and playable, providing players with a rich experience.
In addition to gameplay, &#34;Set Sail Muffin&#34; has gained a lot of &#34;bonus points&#34; by combining its own style with the crossover collaboration of &#34;Line Dog.&#34; Firstly, the art styles of the two are perfectly matched. &#34;Set Sail Muffin&#34; features a Japanese cartoon healing style, while the beloved &#34;Line Dog&#34; is known for its cute and healing anthropomorphic behaviors. Secondly, the collaboration is set up very cleverly in the game. In the game, Line Dog (Maltese and friend Golden Retriever) becomes one of the Muffin Beasts, and its silly and cute image, along with the various &#34;cute pets&#34; provided by the Muffin Beast system in the game, blend seamlessly. This collaboration successfully attracted a group of new players who downloaded Muffin because of Line Dog.
Also in May, achieving the &#34;1+1&gt;2&#34; effect through crossover collaborations is Yishijie's &#34;I Am the Big Boss.&#34; In May, coinciding with the third anniversary of &#34;I Am the Big Boss,&#34; it launched a hot collaboration with &#34;The Outcast,&#34; which is praised as the peak of Chinese comics.

With its innovative theme, excellent game quality and player experience, as well as a rich and diverse operational marketing strategy, it has been in long-term operation for three years and has won multiple awards. This collaboration with &#34;The Outcast&#34; has not only received positive market feedback, but the two sides have also created and explored the inheritance and innovation of Chinese cultural values through exchanges
After ten years of serialization with the national comic &#34;Evergreen Tree&#34; and &#34;Painting Rivers and Lakes: The Bad Guys&#34;, Yishijie's &#34;I am the Boss&#34; has teamed up with the Dunhuang Museum to open a new chapter in the Silk Road trade journey.
It is reported that after the launch of &#34;I am the Boss&#34;, Yishijie proposed a national style marketing strategy, empowering games through cross-border collaboration with IPs in different fields such as cultural and creative products, animation, and film and television with national characteristics. In addition to the collaboration with &#34;Painting Rivers and Lakes: The Bad Guys&#34; and the Dunhuang Museum this time, it has also collaborated with &#34;The Legend of Qin&#34;, &#34;Journey to the West&#34;, and partnered with the Luoyang Museum, the Tang Dynasty Palace Museum, etc., to restore historical treasures in the game and explore a new path of combining games with traditional culture.
