Apps Away

We all live with some form of cell phone on us in this modern day. At least most Americans do. There will always be those select few that do not. At times I wish I were them. Cell phones go off nonstop with game requests from people.

Either the game is sending messages to you, or you have Facebook linked to your cell phone and the game requests ping on there. So many times I have heard people complain about the requests. Or the even better ones is when someone tells everyone on Facebook that they will strangle the next person that sends them a dumb game request. I know no one will do that but still it is insane.

Then you get all the competition between those people that do play the games and want to be the best out of all their friends. Just dollar after dollar until are sent into the game until you look into your accounts and go "WOW!" The money can fly out of your pocket so fast. A prime example is that guy on the internet that spent over five hundred dollars on Candy Crush. Come on now. Who would allow themselves to spend that much on a game?

Seems like I am ranting, but there are valid points behind all this. I have played some of these games. They are made to almost be completely unbeatable unless you spend that money in the real world to win it. They want the money you make to compensate for their free app. It is not a free app if it is set up that way. They can easily make their money back in a matter of seconds with how people buy items on their games.
