Candy Crush takes this to the extreme. There is no long-running purchase options, everything you buy are one-off boosts or (I'm serious here), 5 more turns on your current level. And none of these guarantee that you will actually pass the current level. In fact, you learn quickly that most levels will be deemed "winnable" within the first few moves, whereas the rest are exercises in frustration and randomness. Candy Crush is the epitome of Pay 2 Win when you remove all scruples from the equation. Candy Crush is a literal slot machine but without the chance of winning anything.
