An era’s end. Millions of millennials played browser games on Miniclip, one of the most well-known websites, throughout their formative years. As of today, just the servers hosting 8 Ball Pool and Agario will remain online.
The website’s dwindling daily user base and declining revenue from web games may have contributed to the closure.
The attempt by the tech sector to phase out the Adobe Flash Player, which was crucial to Miniclip’s early success, is another significant factor in its collapse.
That does not necessarily imply that the Miniclip will no longer exist. The UK-based company announced that it will close its web gaming portal and shift its attention to mobile games, where it has had tremendous success.
Miniclip’s mobile games apparently exceeded 4 billion downloads. That includes 8 Ball Pool, Agario, and more.
