If you have any doubts about PewDiePie’s popularity, well, you shouldn’t have. If you do, though, and you need some proof, hop over to the App Store charts and check the Free category where you’ll find PewDiePie’s Tuber Simulator (Free) sitting prettily as the top Free Game in the US store. That’s pretty good, isn’t it? The game also has a 5 star review average from over seven thousand reviews, so apparently people are enjoying it. It was so popular that developer Outerminds had to pull the plug on some of the game’s social features numerous times just to keep the game running. Again, all this was to be expected and it all shows how popular the PewDiePie brand is and how it can propel a game to the App Store stratosphere.

The game isn’t doing too bad on the Top Grossing part of the charts either, currently sitting at number 46, a pretty good spot if you consider all the server issues the game had to overcome. How are you all finding the game? Is it worth all the attention? We’ll have a review out very shortly, so stay tuned for that.
