Mobile games on Apple

I have uploaded four free games (Tangram and Shape Quiz) on the Apple App store for the past 4 weeks. There were 2,500 downloads - about 100 a day. Downloads from Singapore account for only 6% of the total. The top ranking countries are USA, Japan, France, UK and Singapore. Yes, Singapore is a small country.

To search for my games, look for "Tan Kin Lian". You will see 4 Lite games (free).
