Wemade Play announced on the 24th that the cumulative play count for the two pinnacle challenges in their mobile puzzler Anipang 2 has surpassed 530 million. This milestone was achieved by a dedicated core of 30,000 players who have reached the game's highest level. The content in question consists of the collaborative puzzle 'Constellation Rescue Team' and the solo challenge 'Black Hole'.

According to data compiled at the end of June, the 'Constellation Rescue Team' recorded over 120 million plays over 15 months. Meanwhile, 'Black Hole' clocked in at over 410 million plays over 20 months, bringing the combined total to approximately 530 million plays. Interestingly, when engaging with the 'Black Hole' content, players used an average of only 1.2 items per stage, a notably lower frequency than typical gameplay sessions.

Analysis indicates that among the original players who have stuck with Anipang 2 since its 2014 launch, 20,000 remain active as top-level participants in this end-game content. Many of these players frequently secure positions in the top 50 or claim victories, earning a spot in the Hall of Fame. The development team views this as a clear indicator that these veteran players prefer relying on strategy rather than stockpiling items.

PD Jeong Seong-won stated, "Anipang 2 is likely the only mobile puzzle game in the domestic market where players from the first year are still competing alongside veterans in their 13th year of play," adding, "We plan to continue developing and servicing Anipang 2 specifically for these puzzle masters and enthusiasts in Korea."

Meanwhile, Anipang 2 has kicked off a new league for top-tier players and introduced 2,180 new puzzles in the 109th episode as part of their weekly Season 3 updates.
