Here is a whole story: Apple Maintains Its Edge Over Android With Plants vs. Zombies 2

Making money from free games

If you've never played Plants vs. Zombies, you've been missing out. There's no shortage of tower defense

games on mobile platforms, but Plants vs. Zombies stands above the rest as the king of its genre.

The first game was a hit for its developer, PopCap games, which was subsequently acquired by EA for

over $1 billion.

But if you're an addict, you're free to spend your money buying upgrades.

This is the same model that's been used so successful in games like Candy Crush, which is currently the

top grossing iOS game. By some estimates, it brings in over $600,000 per day from US players alone (over
$200 million per year).
