As leading game developer Kwalee hits 1 billion installs, see what this massive number really looks like.

, a global game studio has announced today that it has reached a major milestone of over one billion installs of its mobile app games. Did you know such a massive industry was hidden in the palm of your hand?

But what does one billion really look like? Kwalee has created a video that puts these big numbers in perspective.

A billion seconds is over 31 years and a billion hours adds up to more than 114,000 years. That's longer than the entire history of human civilisation. The average gamer spends just under eight and a half hours playing each week, so it would take them nearly 2.3 million years to rack up a billion hours of playtime. A typical human has 39 trillion bacteria cells, so you’d find a billion bacteria in just 2 grams of your body. That’s the same weight as two toe nails.

Here’s the video - featuring everything from planets to pixels, and bubbles to burps.
