Coin Master

In Coin Master, players spin a slots machine to earn coins, spins, and Shields. Spinning also triggers Attacks and Raids on other players. During Raids, players play a pick’em game for a chance to steal other player's coins. During Attacks, players reveal coins or a Shield in a pick’em game. Shields protect a player’s Village from Attacks. Players use coins to upgrade Village items for Stars. Collecting Stars levels players up. Completing certain Card Collections unlock a Pet.

In Coin Master, players grow their Village by spinning a slots machine that awards currency, spins, and protection. Certain spins trigger Attacks and Raids. As player progress, they unlock missions and a Pet that awards boosts.

Product Council Insights

  • Coin Master will grow the Casino market. Coin Master is introducing new players from Adventure to slots machines. Eventually, some of these players will want more sophisticated machines … and will download Casino apps.
  • Target new apps in new genres (not necessarily Coin Master in Adventure). Coin Master is an established app and Playtika is already competing with Coin Master with their newly-acquired app, Pirate Kings. To execute, implement the Focused Market Entry Strategy (more info).
  • Coin Master will not disrupt Casino. The features, events, and slots machines in Casino are innovative, extremely difficult to replicate, and very well made.
  • Continue to invest in existing apps. Apps that start out well, like Coin Master, can eventually become great apps (Coin Master was hard-launched in May 2016).
  • Experiment with Influencer Marketing. Deconstruct of Fun highlights the impact of Influencer Marketing campaigns on Coin Master’s downloads. As Eiler’s & Krejcik Gaming pointed out, make sure the Influencer is age appropriate.
