A look at Iran's most successful game-development studios
Under the hot Khordad (May–June) sun you come home from an exam. You sit under the icy blast of the air conditioner. You turn on the computer and, with a bowl of green plums beside you, you open your favorite game. The adrenaline and excitement of the game run under your skin and you tell yourself: "Just two hours." Many Iranian teenagers and young people have had this experience. But their favorite games have not been Iranian. Today, however, Iranian game developers also have something to say.Such as the Nardeban Andisheh Farda institute, maker of the game "Amirza," which managed to capture a good share among Iranian audiences on the mobile platform. This game is the sixth most popular among Iranian audiences after titles such as PUBG, Clash of Clans, and FIFA.

In terms of sales, followers, and positive reviews, this game is among the top 1 percent of Steam games.
