It says it’s free but there are no IAPs listed neither on the App Store nor in the app’s description. How is this monetized? Alex DeLargest and Talbs like this.

Offering it for free encourages the latter which helps promote the former mastery51 Well-Known Member Oct 21, 2009 505 253 63 #4 mastery51, May 4, 2023 On steam it is a premium game. I am assuming it was suppose to be premium for iOS too. But it might be temporarily free. Just like ColeDaddy said they might be trying to generate more buzz for the game. The game is quite fun.

When it was first released It looked like the game was priced at $7.99 based on the pricing history. At least for a little bit. Brightsiderus Well-Known Member Feb 1, 2017 2,234 540 113 #7 Brightsiderus, May 4, 2023 Yeah, but developers decided to make it free to attract more people AltsKev Well-Known Member Nov 12, 2016 566 157 43 Male Developer #8 AltsKev, May 4, 2023 wow really good game, this change from STS with another theme and mechanics Ijipop likes this.

But unfortunately it does a have a few quirks that have caught me out particularly in the shop: 1) When at a shop if you just tap a card, you buy it. This is problematic as for the rest of the game tapping a card enlarges it for you to read. Not only that, as we all know, it’s easy to fat finger things on any device. There should really be a confirm box. 2) If you close out of the game or the game gets pushed from memory during say a shop event, then next continuation in the app will automatically be after the shop. The shop will no longer be available. 3) Similarly once you leave a location like a shop you cannot go immediately back. 4) Victory screen offers a selection of cards. This also takes only one tap to select and buy a card. Cannot even tap or tap and hold to see them enlarged.

Once you figure out the mechanics it’s a nice fresh take on card battling and strategy! I made it to the Government and they whooped my ass lol. Still haven’t beaten it but trying to. Once I beat it with the suits and the restaurant folks I will buy the iap. Looks like there are TONS of cards aconfusedkender Well-Known Member Sep 28, 2012 1,362 122 63 Oil & Gas Kendermore, Ansalon #12 aconfusedkender, May 17, 2023 Update: finally beat the government with the Suits. Damn it is not really easy to beat but thoroughly enjoyable. I’ve now bought the full game as promised. Facking fun game and tons of cards to unlock! (You must log in or sign up to post here.)
