I don't know portuguese but was curious about this game coz it has some tags I've interested so long story short I've found (not an easy task for "3kk" downloads game which mentioned only on devs site in whole google) old free apk since there are no official windows version (I've converted to win and played a little but without language knowledge decided better just to check images [about 4k img files total and 8 vids] in game folder) version 0.77 and what I found out:
1) 70h gameplay and no grind is fake - old game is sandbox grindfest, new free version have 10 min max gameplay but no grind (so thats true). I know that old game discussion is kinda offtop but since there are info in OP about it I assume I can speak about it too.
2) download counter with 3kk downloads most likely fake since it's dev site and there are no real counter (yeah, links lead to pixeldrain but through api so it's should be possible to get/show real downloads number instead of static text) - just some static text in game page html code and so "popular" for sure would be mentioned much more at google.
P.S. So in short if u interested about old version "with 70+h gameplay" probably not worth, new free version is much better in quality but lack of content for now.
Thank you for your interest in Celebrity Hunter! We're thrilled that you're intrigued by the game and its potential. Let's address your concerns and provide some additional context:
1. Grind Concerns:
We understand your concern about "grindfests" in games. Celebrity Hunter is designed to offer a narrative-driven experience, where each date connects to the next like episodes in a series. There's no need for repetitive grinding to progress through the story.

As for the new version, it's currently in its early stages of development, hence the smaller content size. We've never claimed otherwise.
2. Success and Popularity:
Celebrity Hunter was indeed a success on Google Play, with over 3 million downloads solely on that platform, excluding our website. The game was removed from Google Play due to our decision to transition it into an adult game.
Here's an image from our Firebase (Google Analytics) showing our peak monthly user count (300,000+) on Google Play. This number doesn't include downloads from our website or other platforms, further supporting the claim of over 3 million downloads.
