The mobile game Temple Run has been downloaded 100 million times since it was released one year ago today, announced developer Imangi Studios in a press release. 68 million of the downloads have been on iOS, while the other 32 million have been on Android.
Imangi also said that there have been over 10 billion play sessions of the game. This is equal to a "combined time of 54,000 years spent playing the game." 13 percent of the U.S. population has downloaded the game.
"We never imagined that the game we were making and loved would be so well received around the world," said Keith Shepherd, co-founder of Imangi Studios. "The last year has been incredible for us, and we are grateful to fans of the game. We hope to be able to provide them with more entertainment from the brand for years to come."
"100 Million downloads is a significant milestone for any brand in the digital space, and is a reflection of the mass appeal of Temple Run and the deep connection fans have with this unique game," said John Leonhardt, president of DBG.
Imangi to celebrate the achievement has announced that all of its mobile titles released before Temple Run will be free "for a limited time."
