As far as I can see the game launched mid 2015 as free, but some important game modes were IAPs (sold separately for real money). Since January those modes are all inclusive, but the app's price rise to $2.99–4.99. Now "really free" for some days. There are still IAPs, but they seem to be cheating only.

I think bugs kinda killed it. Breach and clear is just a bit better Son of Anarchy Well-Known Member Oct 5, 2015 716 130 43 Male Shadow Runner Australia #5 Son of Anarchy, Apr 15, 2016 Originally I bought this and Doorkickers at the same time, ended up playing this WAY more.
