Juan Tamad’s Catch the Guava free game app
MANILA, Philippines - With over 55,000 installs within the first three days of its launch, Catch the Guava is the top new free Android app in the Philippines.
The game was launched on Oct. 11 by GMA Network as a companion app for its hit show Juan Tamad, starring Sef Cadayona. Juan pitches the idea of a game app about catching golden guavas to his brainiac best friend Miong. The friends design the Catch the Guava game and it becomes a nationwide hit … so addictive in fact, that a senator proposes a bill to ban the game.
Showing just how quickly the game has picked up since its launch... when ranked among longstanding games on Google Play, Catch the Guava is now second only to the epic Clash of Clans and has even bested Candy Crush.
Catch the Guava game mechanics are simple: Keep Juan’s mouth open to catch fresh guavas, close his mouth to avoid the rotten ones. The more guavas Juan catches, the closer he gets to winning the love of Marie — just as he does on the TV show.
With the creation of an actual game app, the network hopes to engage Juan Tamad’s fans or Juanatics beyond the TV screen.
