Insights From A Terrible Galaga Game (The Jimquisition)
🕑 Added 2022-02-07 14:10:29 +0000 UTCGalaga Wars+ is on Apple Arcade and it's absolutely atrocious.
A slapdash rerelease of a free-to-play scam, it exposes just how terrible such scams can be once the premium shortcuts are disabled and all you're left with is the malicious, aggressive grind.
It's proven very valuable. Let's look at it!

Reminder that Apple requires they be listed as producer on all Arcade titles. So one might contact them and ask why they decided to unleash this… thing on their paying customers.

Has Stephanie said if they're planning to do any wrestling dates in other parts of the country? I'd love to come see them, but Newcastle is a bit of a trek for me, so I'd rather wait for a date down south if one is ever likely to happen

Funny, I don't see too many 'git gud' Souls players flocking to this game. Sounds like it'd be right up their alley.

In addition to all the psychological warfare this game (both versions) wages on the poor player, it *ALSO* mines your personal data for advertising! The "free to play" version is much worse, but even the Apple Arcade version tracks you for marketing purposes. The Castlevania game does, too.

I'm very sorry and disappointed I couldn't make it back to Newcastle, my home town, for your debut. I'll see you as soon as I can.
