      @@whyiamafs must’ve been greed. Greed has consumed them to the point the person under the control of Greed is worshipped like a god, like a vicious cancer you can’t get rid of. Greed causes a mobile game dev to create awful things that attract towards ppl that like feet or big booties bc that makes money.
      Meanwhile, passionate and talented game devs that genuinely put their blood, sweat, and tears into a game they genuinely loved and wanted to make are slowly fading into obscurity because of amateurs that waste tens of millions for a shitton of ads, unenjoyable experiences, fake reviews and fake ratings.
      These awful mobile games like the ones on the video are almost certain to have a one to two star rating, with 99% budget being into the shitty ads , fake reviews and ratings.

    I payed "become a queen" pretty far. It's a cliche story about ugly girl turns pretty and becomes prom queen, dating her nerd best friend.
    After that story was finished a new one started about romancing your boss against a coworker.
    I played further and the next story was a competition for who will marry the prince to become queen. The previous coworker was a contestant, she had character development as she came to save you.

      I have commented that already so I copy-pasted it here. Brace yourself because it’s a *VERY* long comment.
      I am 15 so still technically a kid, and I’ve seen ads about undr€ssing women on a literal freakin’ KIDS game. I do not even feel comfortable playing a game with ads in near my mom or in public anymore, since nowadays there’s not one single mobile game ad that doesn’t involve undr€ssing women or s€xu@lizing them. It’s truly disgusting, and as a girl it disgusts me even more. I even had to purchase an anti-ad thing on one of my few mobile games when my debit card still worked cuz I just couldn’t take it anymore.
      Like, you don’t need to clickbait horny retired and divorced 50 year olds that don’t wanna spend time with their grandkids into playing your game.
      Like, actually promote your game’s gameplay instead of making everything about seeing a woman’s unc€ns0red tits.
      I only have a few mobile games on my phone, anything else is just things I use to make art or animation, or streaming services. Out of all of the games I have/had, only 3 used advertising tactics true to the gameplay, or even footage of the game itself, a LOT of them used falseful advertising tactics, and a few are just apps from my childhood that I reinstalled or that I just scrolled through the AppStore and happened to found it and downloaded it.
      Briefly, there isn’t one mobile game ads that I’ve seen since 2020 that doesn’t involve $&xu@lizing women or f€t!$h crap. Like, they could be promoting a tycoon game or an RPG or Gacha/Genshin game, and they always have to put a woman wearing l!ng@r!e and a person trying to get her completely n@k£d. Honestly, I think mobile game advertising is dead.
      I had to do some crazy censoring because UA-cam, all of a sudden, won’t let me post the comment. *Hmm, totally **_-not-_** suspicious at all.*

    the game really does a good job at creating really nice interactions between real players, and most of the game is quite relaxing and just an overall good experience, and it has the most wholesome community out of any game i've seen.

You have to pay real money to pick the good option and I wasn't about to do that, so I got railroaded into all the bad options and the story got really downhill bonkers fast because of it. It was a while ago so I don't remember specifics, but the particular story I was playing involved a woman getting stalked by a serial killer and some guy who was trying to protect her, and it was like an episode of Law and Order if it were a half assed dating sim.

      Back then I don't know such light novel games also had this pay to win feature. I was so betrayed when seeing how I can't pick good options and had to get along with bad ending. And the price for getting good options are equals to 7-10 times watching ads to get free coins.
      Saw the game's history was planned as pc light novel games but changed to mobile ones as it was easier to milk money, I choose to uninstall them. Too bad the potential of good story wasted just because such lousy feature

    My guess for the "game" part in the titles is because a lot of people who play mobile games are probably people who wouldn't really call themselves "gamers", and I can see how, if it doesn't really matter to you what the title is or who made it, you would just search for "funny game" or "match 3 tile game" or "puzzle game". So the ones with "game" in the title would strike more key words and then automatically pop up higher in the recommendations because the app store would just see that it matches the best with what you asked it to give you. It looks and feels pretty fucking stupid for anyone with any gaming experience at all, but, for example, I can see my mother, who just downloads an escape room puzzle game, finishes it, deletes it and gets another one (which is completely valid, especially if there isn't much replayability), wouldn't really care or think twice at those kinds of titles. My mom isn't very old either, but she just isn't a gamer in any way, she just occasionally plays a game for a while on her phone and that's it. She doesn't play candy crush for hours either. I think the closest to a gamer she would be is playing the Sims (which I think is a pretty fun game. I'll have to try it sometime). But she isn't too interested in video games in general
