I don't think there is much reason analysing lucky successes. Real success happens by getting a little lucky here and a little lucky there, learning over time how to keep the good fortune once acquired, and then stacking one success over another. Analysing FarmVille and Flappy Bird is like analysing why a lottery winner chose the right numbers.
And in both cases the surprise money is gone just as quickly.
