Suika Game: How a Watermelon Game is Taking Over Streaming

Following its worldwide release two years after it initially came out in Japan, Suika Game also known as Watermelon Game has exploded in popularity after high-profile streamers such as Ludwig, LilyPichu, and QTCinderella expanded the game’s reach with Western audiences. Created by Alladin X, Suika Game was actually never intended to be a game released for typical gaming audiences as it was originally developed to be played on the company’s digital projectors. However, Suika Game proved so popular and successful that it was released by Nintendo on its eShop where it continued to thrive with Japanese gamers.
