2M / day? I have some doubt and...

the Android version has "only" 100,000 - 500,000 downloads, now.


I think this is a fake news; from where users downloaded the other 751.5 M? iOS? Windows Mobile? They, together, almost certainly are less than the 500K downloads for Android.

Create a series of characters, use them in a few medium success games.... And 20 years after, launch a new game, making sure to have top pub, "accidentally" leech it, and then release it as "the game of the century"

But before you build a time machine try to make an app.

I hope for you that it is a game without math because you seem to have problems with numbers

Go offers an interesting twist over most games in that players must set off and move around their physical world. (Blog Gizmodo's recent headline nailed it: 'Sore Legs Become Pandemic As Pokémon Go Players Accidentally Get Exercise.') But beyond that, Go is almost boringly simple: Once you encounter a Pokémon in the wild, Go switches into "capture mode," where users flick Pokeballs at the creature until they nab it. It gets more interesting a few hours in when players are able to lay claims to Pokegyms, digital representations of real-life landmarks where creatures can battle one another for supremacy.

Also, by plan or by coincidence, Go's release was well-timed. The summer months offered the best weather for getting out of the house and exploring on foot. School, meanwhile, is out, giving younger kids plenty of free time. The game also happened to launch at the end of a particularly brutal week in the U.S., offering a palliative diversion.
