Why? Because they were busy changing their ma.n.u.script!

The first day of sales of 1,000, 5,000, 10,000, and then 20,000 are totally different, the content of the ma.n.u.script is of course can't be the same.

Originally, these media estimated that the first day sales are around 8,000 – 10,000 and these people thought that 《Plants vs Zombies》 was nothing more than a casual puzzle game, which originally had  a few audience and so they thought that the sales in the first few hours was due to the hype at weibo and might fell soon.

As a result, the subsequent data directly shocked them!

Not only did it not drop, but it still kept on rising and directly broke through 20,000 sales within 24 hours!

These people have a hunch that they are probably going to witness history.

At 12 pm, as soon as the 24-hour data of 《Plants vs Zombies》 came out, these game medias have posted one after another.

《Can the sales in the first month broke through 100,000? s.h.i.+ Huazhe stopped talking》

These game media all applauded, after all the data of 《Plants vs Zombies》 was too good and the quality is impeccable and it was hard to find faults even if they wanted to be picky.

Under the indiscriminate bombing of the media, the popularity of 《Plants vs Zombies》 soared and with the recommendation of the App Store it could be predicted that the subsequent sales of 《Plants vs Zombies》 would usher a wave of explosive growth!

Many players with "ulterior motives" read s.h.i.+ Huazhe's weibo post and found out that he had already deleted his post that he had previously posted in respond to Chen Mo's weibo.

He especially liked on commenting on this and that previously, and in the end, after the popularity of 《Plants vs Zombies》, he never posted.

The enthusiastic netizens couldn't stop themselves anymore, you said that "Chen Mo's first game can't break 100,000 sales in the first month." Now, let's see if it is able to break through 100,000?

Let alone 100,000, the first day it broke through 20,000 and now in the first month it is likely to break through 500,000!

"Teacher s.h.i.+ Huazhe, you gotta come out and say something."

"It's okay, 《Plants vs Zombies》 sold only 20,000 on the first day, the first month is not necessarily able to sell 100,000, teacher s.h.i.+, you still have a chance."

"Teacher, don't give up!"

"I have to say that it is wise that the teacher did not swear to eat anything on impulse."

"So, is the teacher really not going to show up?"

These onlookers have commented under s.h.i.+ Huazhe's posts. Several comments which looked like praising but actually mocking were top posted and got hundreds of likes.  

s.h.i.+ Huazhe did not post, he also knew what the consequences of posting on Weibo were and he could only pretend to be dead. But it doesn't mean that he didn't read it, s.h.i.+ Huazhe was so angry after seeing the taunting of these people under his weibo, but there was nothing he could do, the achievements of 《Plants vs Zombies》 was too good and it would lack strength if he come out criticizing it now!

In the face of this kind of sales and public praise, there was a risk of being ridiculed if he came out expressing a different opinion. s.h.i.+ Huazhe was very smart and he would not come out at this time.

"He is so lucky? How come he makes a game and it becomes popular? Alright, I'll have to bear with it, I really don't believe that he could still maintain such high level?!"

s.h.i.+ Huazhe was determined to keep silent.

The netizens teased him under his weibo and saw that he had no intention to respond and soon forgot about it.

After all, the popularity on the internet age comes fast and goes fast, these netizens just wanted to make a fuss and when they saw that they couldn't get any fun, they all dispersed.

《Plants vs Zombies》 was indeed popular, and the sales kept on rising.

Zhao Zihao and Lin Mao both called Chen Mo to congratulate.

"Awesome, I heard that you slaughtered in the New Game Ranking, great, I feel that you will make a lot of money this time. Hurry up, I'm waiting for you to make a game that can get combat effectiveness by spending money." Zhao Zihao said.

Chen Mo smiled, "Don't worry, I won't forget you."

Lin Mao also called to congratulate, "Well, Chen Mo, I thought that this game would be popular and there was a potential to become really popular, but I did not expect it to be like this! Awesome, too awesome!"

"Your game is not bad, it is second in the New Game ranking soon."

"Hey, how can it compare with 《Plants vs Zombies》? I had a great time with it in the past two days. It is really great in all aspects, the most important thing is its playfulness! I see, this game is going to set off waves of puzzle games."

"It is fine, I won't do puzzle games for the next game."

"Ah? What are you thinking? This game is super popular, why not strike while the iron is hot and release 《Plants vs Zombies 2》?"

"You are 2( 2 in Chinese means stupid). I am not planning in making a puzzle game for now."

Lin Mao does not understand, "Why? You have money and reputation, and you are good at it, why not?"

"It is hard to explain, in short, I am not very optimistic about this genre. Come on, let's have a meal together next time."

. . . . . . . . . . . . .

It's not just Lin Mao who thinks that the puzzle games are going to be popular, but the other game medias also feel that way.

《Plants vs Zombies》 is popular now, and they couldn't guess how popular it will be, but from the current trend, it is very likely to top the entire Puzzle Game Ranking and might even affect the Paid Game Ranking.

Moreover, the score of this game has been maintained at around 9.3 points, there must be some compet.i.tors downrating it to lower its points, but it's useless, the score had never dropped below 9 points which showed the popularity of this game!

There are very few players who requested a refund!

You can apply for a refund on the Official App Store as long as your game play time is short and the reason for the refund was sufficient then it would be successfully refunded.

Nevertheless, the players of 《Plants vs Zombies》 rarely applied for a refund, which meant that they highly recognized the game and planned to play it for a long time!

In the eyes of major game medias and game designers, Chen Mo's first game was stable, accurate, and powerful. It was already a great success, and it is bound to usher a new wave of trend.

Puzzle games have always been a very popular type of game, but only few can do it to the extreme. Puzzle games can naturally cover a large number of user groups, belonging to the game of all ages, so as long as the popularity was enough you never need to worry about the number of players.

Moreover, puzzle games do not have such a high threshold, the general C-cla.s.s and D-cla.s.s game designers can do it, the only thing that they need is creativity.

None of the world's game designers felt that their creative ability is insufficient.

Therefore, some game designers and game medias were trying to figure out the trend.

Will 《Plants vs. Zombies》 become a kind of fire that will ignite the entire puzzle game market?

Is the golden age of puzzle games coming?

All this can be seen after the data is clear.

However, what everyone doesn't know is that the game designer of this game, Chen Mo, has no plan to continue developing puzzle games.

At least not for the time being.
