Minecraft, and Flappy Bird were popular before/regardless of YouTube. Slender was a free to play game. I've never heard of Happy Wheels. Looks like a browser based game? |
If you deny the influence Youtube had over Minecraft then I really don't know what to say. Flappy Bird sure it's mostly attributed to social media in general not Youtube specifically. The other 2 still hold true even if they're free. Five Nights at Freddies is a recent phenomenon. Also DayZ http://www.tubefilter.com/2015/01/09/dayz-three-million-sales-youtube-twitch/ .
