    This game is #1 all over the world. With 2* rating. It's pretty bad. The biggest jump happened on 24 Nov. Any idea which promotion tools did they use or how could this app climbed so high?

    seems like its more of a speculative answer, either way the person has cracked the code to getting #1.

    kinda crazy that crappy apps are still able to get to the top.

    I wonder if Apple can cut back on these by simply enforcing the requirement that the support link goes to an actual support page. In both cases the link went to some random website that has nothing to do with the app, or any app.

    I'm guessing the dental surgery app got banned due to buying there way into the top 25. Apple cracked down on this.

    Im purely speculating, but is it possible that this was just a pure arbitrage situation where the ad revenue due to the content subject matter was higher than the cost to buy installs therefore they could just buy enough to get to the top?
