[PAST EVENT]
This event has already passed, but subscribing members can find the recording here.
Key points from our discussion:
- Cash Frenzy’s Happy Labor Day city-building expansion punishes players for failing to complete daily missions.
- Upgrading all five buildings unlocks the ability to earn stars passively, which adds an idle mechanic to the game.
- Players can buy a $0.99 IAP of event tokens three times a day and can only buy $9.99 IAPs if they want more after that.

Join us for a comprehensive roundtable discussion on expansion events with extensive progressions, resource mechanics, and innovative IAPs.
We’ll be joined by special guests Shane Sareli, Tiffany Keller, and Brett Nowak to explore the expansion events driving revenue and engagement in Cash Frenzy and Idle Mafia.
In this roundtable, we’ll discuss two mechanic insights that stood out in casual and casino:
- First, we’ll discuss Cash Frenzy’s Happy Labor Day event which enhanced its previous city-building event by adding building upgrades, idle mechanics, and individual progression.
- Then, we’ll explore Idle Mafia’s Merge Island event, a merge mini-game with unusually deep mechanics for a casual mini-game, including resource generation, boosts, challenges, collections, and leaderboards.
This roundtable is a great opportunity to understand how different games implement expansion events. Join us to learn from this successful example and gather insights to apply to your own game development strategies.
