It's remarkable to consider that the original Despicable Me, a collaboration between Illumination Studios and Mac Guff animation studio, launched a wildly successful franchise. Minion Rush shares this success, boasting over a billion downloads and a decade of strong performance.

While some may find Gru and the Minions somewhat tiresome, their popularity shows no signs of waning, especially with a new film on the horizon.
