A Decade of Growth
Released in 2016, Human Fall Flat was created by a single developer and gained traction due to its physics-based gameplay, which originated from a project intended to be a detective game. Over the last ten years, it has maintained a consistent presence in the market, eventually climbing into the ranks of the highest-selling games in industry history.
To celebrate the 10-year anniversary, No Brakes Games is releasing a special update featuring a new level. This content draws inspiration from classic stages in the game's history, including Mansion, Mountain, Demolition, Castle, Water, Powerplant, and Aztec.
All-Time Best-Selling Games: Current Standings
The updated sales figures place Human Fall Flat just outside the top ten. Here is how the current list of the highest-selling games compares:
| Rank | Title | Copies Sold (Millions) |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Tetris | 520 |
| 2 | Minecraft | 400 |
| 3 | Grand Theft Auto 5 | 230 |
| 4 | Red Dead Redemption 2 | 85 |
| 5 | Wii Sports | 82.9 |
| 6 | Mario Kart 8/Deluxe | 79.5 |
| 7 | PUBG: Battlegrounds | 75 |
| 8 | Terraria | 70 |
| 9 | The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim | 65 |
| 10 | The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt | 65 |
| 11 | Human Fall Flat | 60 |
| 12 | Super Mario Bros. | 58 |
While Tetris remains at the top of the list, its figure is considered contentious by some analysts as it aggregates every iteration of the game sold since its inception. Regardless of the broader list, Human Fall Flat has successfully widened the gap between itself and other notable titles like The Sims, Stardew Valley, and Animal Crossing: New Horizons.
