A simple digital board game makes $100,000 every single month.
I uncovered this yesterday during my morning commute.
The entire metro train was wrapped in Ludo King advertisements.
Every wall, every window, completely covered.
My first thought: This ad campaign costs a fortune. They must be printing absolute cash.
So I pulled up Sensor Tower to check the data.
The reality blew me away.
They are easily clearing over $100k a month from a game people used to play on cardboard.
As builders, we constantly fall into the complexity trap.
- We think we need a cutting-edge tech stack
- We think we need a complex AI wrapper
- We think we need 50 features to launch
But the biggest goldmines usually come from digitizing basic human habits.
Simplicity scales. Nostalgia sells.
