That's what makes me sad about the current Tetris game, on iOS.
One of my favorite games ever, and I'd gladly pay for an ad-free version, but they don't have it. I assume there's much more money to be made with ads, over subscriptions.
- bookofjoe 2mo agoA penetrating observation that feels true. Too bad.
- furyofantares 2mo agoOh, the Rubik's Cube app has both actually - the subscription gets rid of the ads you have to watch to get more solves.
- cloudfudge 2mo agoI think there's money to be made with both, but there's more money to be made by not maintaining two separate models, so ads win.
- smugma 2mo agoIt's not that rare for games to offer a "remove ads" option for a few bucks. That model doesn't require a lot of extra "maintenance". I think a few bucks for ad-free brings in more money for most developers, but that still pales in comparison to a recurring subscription model (or models where people keep spending in-app on consumables).
- jval43 2mo agoPlay the Gameboy version. I bought every single official Tetris version and they all suck in conparison. Gameboy emulators are now available again in the iOS app store or even as a a web app. Or just play on real hardware.
