I just got one from bulkypix the other day (it's free now) and it wasn't very good. september Well-Known Member Sep 14, 2012 2,673 0 0 #5 september, Sep 15, 2012 There's two versions of Babel Rising 3D on Google Play, one is ad supported and has. "!" after it's name, the other is x5 the price of the iOS version and it still sounds like you have to pay to progress through the game. The whole daily goal rewards, watching adverts for coins reminds me of when I bought Dead Trigger and felt duped. I nearly bought this after playing the PS3 demo, so glad I didn't now. This sort of model needs to die, either it's freemium or it's a paid app, I have no respect for companies that try to sell you a freemium game no matter how little the asking price. Still, it's free at the moment so rant aside it is worth at least checking out. GeekyDad Well-Known Member Jan 14, 2012 1,173 0 0 Games Journalist #6 GeekyDad, Sep 15, 2012 Without delving too far off topic, yeah, it definitely seems to be a model born out of desperation, but I don't think it's one with a long life expectancy. As iOS gamers, we're quick to learn that these types of games will be free soon enough, and so many of us don't bother paying for them when they first release. That's further exacerbated by the fact that we know that a lot of these games we would pay for will later be changed into something else that will make the game less enjoyable for us. It's a shortsighted approach by publishers who are focused on making money, rather than good games. Sure, we all gotta eat, but if you're a game maker, you should be focused on making a great product. shawnbuddy Well-Known Member Jul 10, 2012 151 0 0 #7 shawnbuddy, Sep 18, 2012 This game has some really fun gameplay, but the IAP is so baked into it it's hard to believe they ever expected $3 for it. You've got a game that makes leveling and unlocking new chapters tedious and slow just to encourage you to reach for that IAP button, and that's annoying. neo_ Well-Known Member Jun 21, 2012 65 0 0 #8 neo_, Sep 18, 2012 Suweet! Always wanted to try this one out. Gameplay seems to be fun but the IAP is quite horrible. mrbiggles Well-Known Member Jul 3, 2012 3,691 0 0 Like retired USA #9 mrbiggles, Oct 26, 2012 free free again, never played... still iap make it unplayable bad? Filing Cabinet Well-Known Member Aug 20, 2011 997 0 16 #10 Filing Cabinet, Oct 26, 2012 Yeah the IAP push annoyed the hell out of me. Seems like all the fun stuff is a major grind away and upgrades take forever Exact-Psience Well-Known Member Jan 12, 2012 22,664 2 38 The Work-At-Home Guy Philippines #11 Exact-Psience, Oct 26, 2012 Get the first one. It's more fun right off the bat than the 3d version which had a pretty sloppy IAP model. mrbiggles Well-Known Member Jul 3, 2012 3,691 0 0 Like retired USA #12 mrbiggles, Nov 23, 2013 bump free again... never played Cynuyt Well-Known Member May 31, 2013 1,980 0 36 http://pine-entertainment.com #13 Cynuyt, Nov 23, 2013 Comform, free again.
