Gunlock Well-Known Member Dec 13, 2010 472 0 16 #6 Gunlock, Aug 22, 2012 I bought the game a while ago so I dont see any iAPs in the game after the update, but I sure hope that it is not a grind-to-death-or-buy-iAP model. Anyway the game is worth the download, great for short sessions. Retro64 Well-Known Member Apr 26, 2011 81 0 0 Chicago http://www.retro64.com #7 Retro64, Aug 22, 2012 If you already had the game, you will not see the iAP- we kept the old economy for everyone who already has the game on their device. The new freemium economy is very similar, and still easy to win the game without ever making an iAP. Thanks!

Picked it up when it was $0.99 foxmulderino Well-Known Member Dec 30, 2009 2,916 0 36 Student Italy #11 foxmulderino, Aug 22, 2012 No need of IAP...take Random Heroes...same IAPs value I guess! timedblades Well-Known Member Jun 23, 2012 102 0 0 #12 timedblades, Aug 22, 2012 Glad to have it for free! Thank you! nfong Well-Known Member Aug 30, 2011 1,186 1 38 #13 nfong, Aug 22, 2012 I still don't understand why devs can't just release a separate, F2P model, instead of changing the original game... undeadcow Well-Known Member Dec 4, 2010 9,493 2 36 Houston, TX #14 undeadcow, Aug 22, 2012 +1, it would be good of them to at least include some perk for people who originally purchased the game. I have a number of games on my device I will not update because they became freemium, one more to that list. Gunlock Well-Known Member Dec 13, 2010 472 0 16 #15 Gunlock, Aug 22, 2012 I noticed that some apps are switching from paid to free-to-play / freemium model lately. I think the best way to solve the problem (of people who bought this kind of app when it was paid) is to add some kind of a restore purchase button somewhere in the menus, so people could unlock the game for free without paying twice. But I dont know if it is technically possible on the AppStore side to add such an option. Connector Well-Known Member May 6, 2012 15,512 1 0 In the Chatroom http://thechatroom.freeforums.net/ #16 Connector, Aug 22, 2012 I don't think this is possible or developers would be doing it. If a developer changes an app from paid to trialware, it sure would be nice for the early adopters to get credit for the inapp to purchase all levels and being able to restore the inapp purchase, but maybe a developer can tell us whether or not it can be done. Wish it could be done that way though instead of making us pay twice. This game is very strange. Strange fighting mechanics. Retro64 Well-Known Member Apr 26, 2011 81 0 0 Chicago http://www.retro64.com #17 Retro64, Aug 23, 2012 If Rune Raiders is still on the device and you update, it will not be the freemium version. The game detects prior versions for that very reason. This was the best way for us to help purchasers keep what they bought. Royce Well-Known Member Mar 22, 2011 4,239 179 63 #18 Royce, Aug 23, 2012 Pretty sure the best way for you to help purchasers keep what they bought would have been not to update a paid game into a freemium one Just sayin...

From the main thread, sounds like this is not really a sale but rather a switch from premium to freemium.
