So… can someone explain to me how charts on Google Play actually work?

I'm stumped. I used to be shopping by means of the highest paid video games, since I not too long ago acquired the means to spend one thing little on myself. I get pleasure from cellphone video games, however I'm fairly choosy, and I do not know what sort of sport do I even need so I used to be shopping the charts to get an thought.

Now – how tf do these charts even work? As you possibly can see Townscaper is the primary and I really feel that's honest for "Informal" class. It has 50k+ downloads. Subsequent sport has 10k+ downloads, and pixel artwork appears good too, so I can see it deserves the place.

However wtf is 5 rupees and 5 pesos? Am I lacking one thing right here? 5 rupees mainly has solely 500 downloads, and prices about 5 cents. It additionally isn't a sport per se, it looks like a set of bootleg video games. Identical goes for five pesos which is about 50 cents, has 100 downloads. Identical factor – assortment of bootleg video games. How come these have locations on prime chart?? And third and fifth place nonetheless??

Hidden of us is after each of them and has whopping 100k+ downloads.

Am I lacking one thing right here? How does this work? And if I can reliably use Google Play's prime charts – then what else can I take advantage of to flick thru the video games? Google Video games app is obnoxious and I can't appear to understand it for the lifetime of me.

PS. I filtered by paid thoughts you – so I can ignore all these half-assed "prime grossing" whale-hunting boring-ass scams of video games – so aspect notice: why tf is "prime grossing" even a filter? Does it actually enchantment to some individuals to play video games that low-key pray on individuals?

Thanks. And sorry for the lengthy rant-y submit.
