How free games are designed to make money

30 Second unskippable AD... I just made you 30 cents

I'm studying game apps you can win real money and discovered a great website at Gamer Roadmap Rundown (google it if you are interested)

I discovered a useful collection of videos that may help you at Gamer roadmap rundown

As a game developer, I have to say that freemium games are killing video games. Let me explain: yes they make boatloads of money, but the creativity and game design behind 99% of freemium games is not deep, not deep at all. Its all based first and foremost (because the games are free) on how can they make the players suffer in order to get them to pay up. Then comes the creativity. So it will always be creativity second or third and profits first. It should be gamedesign/creativity first and then profi...

I totally agree with you. I have played lots of games on my iPhone and iPad and ultimately the freemium games always suck because while the gameplay initially is nice in most cases, it tends to become a chore real quick. With my limited free time besides work, family and sports I want to spend some of that time on games that actually let me get to an end and don't end up harassing me with power-ups, coins or ads to increase my in-game time or abilities.A couple of examples: I played Pokémon GO and wh...

I think I worked out the actual price of dollar to pokecoins though

Just play B2P games. Spend $5-30 on an actual decent game and never worry about microtransactions (unless it's EA)

Cliff Worsfold ahahahhahahahahhahhahahahahahahhaha..... Spend a little for B2P you are the reason good company went bankrupt. Meanwhile, there is is someone who spend $70000 just for mobile games.

Cliff Worsfold are you stupid? What a sheep “unless it’s EA” think for yourself moron, a lot of game developers do this.

No i’m not supporting EA, i’m telling you how stupid you are.

They kinda pay for the game so most people dont have to, or something. If there were no whales, less money, higher price etc
