Wait what
Mobile game bullshit.
Lotta games on mobile give you a limited amount of time you can play without paying real money for more of some stupid fucking resource you only acquire very rarely for free (typically they give you enough every 24 hours to play 2 or 3 games/do 2 or 3 activities/build 2 or 3 things/etc). Basically if you want to play more than you can with the alotted free resources, you have to pay. Like an arcade machine, but dumber.
Gotta explain to the zoomers how games worked before you paid for every turn.
