The Question

Hello there loyal Appspy readers! It’s another Monday and it’s time for another question.

We’re going to go for a broad topic again this week. Last week I asked about pricing to gauge the general consensus of value our audience has in regards to iOS games. This week we’re going to discuss those games that at least initially offer no monetary barrier.

Yes, the question this week is: What is your opinion on free to play gaming?

This covers the gamut. You can talk about games that use free to play as a demo (having the full game be unlocked for a fee), you can talk about free games that are supported by advertising, or you can talk about the freemium model of game design. All I ask is that if you have negative opinions of any practises, to keep your criticisms civil.

I think this is going to be our most interesting discussion to date. I look forward to your answers, and on Friday I’ll let you know what I think! Enjoy your week in the meantime.
