"Shooting Star" Games?

I'm talking about games everyone and their grandma seemed to be playing for a while, then quickly disappeared and are hardly mentioned anymore.

Some of my favorite examples include "Kerbal Space Program", "Until Dawn" and "Pokemon Go".

What else can you add to the mix?

Candy Crush?
Also i thought that the title was a reference to Rockman Shooting Star (AKA Mega Man Star Force)

Yeah, I was active on that one (and I believe I even had it on PS4 for a while), then its popularity seemed to have peaked and gone down since.

I'm actually surprised it lasted as long as it did!

Spooky's Jump Scare Mansion was huge for a while before fizzling out.

That's another one that was huge back in the day — I even commented it on three broken languages, I was so excited xD

Remember Lethal Company?

Many games made with streamers in mind tend to be like that...

No, just practiced a few languages on forums discussing it.

Shout-out to when I wrote Everything Like This and fucked up every third word.

I don't, but it does ring a bell.
