Hi, The good thing with their current price model is that you can buy their cheapest option, around 20 or so coins and then see if you want to continue playing that game and if you want to do that, you have some options to choose from. What i don’t like is that you actually have to buy or get

Hi, This is *not* critizism even though it might seem so. I merely want to test my opinion in a matter where i more or less have been accused of being wrong. You see, i want those i tell and sometimes teach about the iDevices to know their device thoroughly so that they don’t get stuck somewhere
