ok first world problem here

Ok i’m playing my favorite SHUMP on my tablet sky squad by kongergate and I get 5 lives and in typical mobile game fashion to get a free life I can spend my hard fought coins or watch a ad so it comes up to 10

so I watch an ad … and then I get this fucking monstrosity of an ad for either mobile strike or game of war … TO get through the ad and go back to the game you have to play a demo of the game that takes 5 fucking minutes to get through and isn’t even a true representative of the game …( ive played mobile strike … its a very slow grindfest that takes 20 hours to build an outhouse) … I haven’t played game of war but it has the same ad just with graphic swaps (although the chick with the oversized cleavage is easier to suffer through than arnie … ) there both owned by the same toiletbowl

And even non game apps/sites are running these pieces of shit I hope they go fuck them selves with a cactus … or a Joshua tree

I’ve seen that ad from SimCity Build. A sad little ‘tower defense’ game. At least it was easier to work on a pad.

Mobile Strike is pretty obnoxious pay to win, like most MMPG. Most of their ads make it seem like its a hardore COD Game when it is more of a featureless Age of Empires. Game of War doesn’t advertise as much these days.

You don’t actually have to play those demos. There is a hidden 30 second timer after which you can (x) out of the video and you get your gem.

The game itself is incredibly boring and derivative and the only reason to download it is if they offer a truckload of gems on a game you actually enjoy playing.

Finally, a non-Trump rant! 🙂

Too bad for me, I know nothing about the subject. ☹

Guess that is for Arnie for when he needs to go take a dump…
