Please Save Minion Rush! 

Minion Rush has been a huge part of so many people’s childhoods. It first launched in 2013, and since then it has become one of the most downloaded mobile games ever.

I remember playing Minion Rush when I was younger and spending ages trying to beat my previous high score, unlock new costumes and collect as many bananas as possible. It was one of those games I could come back to whenever I was bored, and playing it now brings back so many memories. I know I’m definitely not the only person who feels this way.

The numbers show just how big the game became. Minion Rush has been downloaded more than 1.2 billion times worldwide. In 2018, Gameloft reported that the game had 1.7 million daily active users. By 2021, players had collected around 90 trillion bananas and spent a combined 3.4 billion hours playing the game.

Minion Rush also reached 1 billion downloads in 2021, making it the first mobile game based on a film property to reach that milestone.

These aren’t just numbers. Behind them are millions of players who have memories connected to this game.

I’m asking Gameloft, Illumination and Universal to please keep Minion Rush available and preserve it for the future. Whether that means continuing support, maintaining the current game or creating an offline version, there are still people who care about it.
