Tomb of the Mask
Pros: Fast paced, fun gameplay, simple but nice pixelart, playable with one hand, smooth swipe controls.
Cons: Horrible horrible monetization.
I have to give props to the devs for squeezing such an oppressive monetization into such a simple game. You are bombarded with stuff to purchase all the damn time. I’m happy paying to remove ads but this game takes it further, now you need to purchase “skip it”s to get the bonus for skipping ads. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. The game itself is fun but the monetization is just too oppressive.
The fact that this “game” has over 100 million downloads and 4.3 star ratings on Google Play is a testament to the dire state of the mobile game market. User reviews that gave the game 5 stars have stuff like “Just turn off the wi-fi while playing it”. So you’re giving a game that forces you to turn off your wi-fi 5 stars?!?! Mind boggling. Stay far far away for this game.
