But it has to be more than that. I've heard complaints about IAP expansions in various games from otherwise right-sounding adults. Transliterating, we get:

"I paid the price of several mars bars for this game that I can play for six months, and you have the nerve to charge me the price of a "go large" to get another 20 maps?! Robbers, I hope you go out of business, I'm not wasting my money on you anymore - I had to work for 17 seconds to pay for that last one."

yet people still shell out $15 for 4 extra maps to Call of Duty Mw3...

appstore, where anything over 99 cents is only for the rich

Just drop the discussion on those people already. They exist on every platform, and you know if they can get away with it, they just won't pay for games at all.

Anyway, bought this game. Just sorry I missed it earlier.

Nice one, thanks. Hope you enjoy it.

Regarding your "missed it earlier" comment, we get that a lot. It's been a lesson hard learned, but we'll be working harder and smarter on PR and general awareness in the coming months.

you know, the first time i came across this game, it's cuz i spent a few hours searching for a good strategy game comparable to Advance Wars...


If you could by any chance pick a good week to release GLWG2 where there are no major releases, you could get very easily into the game of the week... if not, at least on New and Noteworthy...

The biggest problem i see though is that most ppl look for casual games... so strategy titles don't always seem to shine in the appstore... at least that's what I've seen/think

Entitlement is exactly what it's about. If you charge say 9.99 but no in app the they accuse you of being to expensive. But if you charge 2.99 and do in app charges they accuse you of cheating them and not giving them a full game. It's really those apple fanboys. They think they deserve everything. Just give me a link to donate so I can give more than the 2.99 please. Give you a easy 20.00

My 2 cents on iOS game prices

£2.99 just about gets you a posh sandwich in tescbury these days. I mean, you could get the plain cheese and ham sandwich for about £2.20 but it's a bit dull. Not when you could spend £3 and get the ham hock with mustard mayonnaise and rye bread.If you go mental, lose all reason and really go for it spend £4 and they give you an extra half sandwich!.......I am really quite hungry now.

Anyways, what I'm trying to say is GLWG is definately a posh sandwich! And if iOS gamers won't pay for posh sandwiches they better get used to ham and cheese all the time....or even egg mayonnaise!

Don't let the dogs ruin your day. Your game is one of the best and you are a valued member of TA both in and out of your thread. Many in this community have the utmost respect for you. Keep doing what you do.

Thanks guys, that's very encouraging to hear.

btw drexiel, we were fortunate to get blessed by Apple with the front page N&N the first time around. Be wicked if we get it again.

That was over a year ago though and they don't last forever. Maybe the new multiplayer stuff will keep people talking after the first month this time.
