This may not be obvious from the TV commercial, which features a deluge of gold coins with dollar signs on them. The point isn’t to make money because, while you can put real money into the game, you cannot take real money out. As I am contemplating another purchase I ask myself what is the point? I said I’d never spend money on this game but now I spend a lot but I notice that I never actually win enough to even play for awhile. Not only is the game not free, the money you spend on coins for spins doesn’t keep you in the game for long before you need to purchase more coins or sit out a few rounds (or more) until coins are deposited into your account, according to a review in the Google Play Store:

Regardless, none of this is disclosed in the creepy ad, which promises to make “every day fun-tastic.” (Well, maybe not the days on which you’re waiting around for your coins to come in.) They state (in the same section as above):Ī certain number of Coins will be made available to you to collect when you log into the service at recurring time intervals. But the terms do seem to indicate that the more often you open the app, the less time you’ll have to wait.

It may be a couple minutes, a couple hours, a couple days. The terms don’t say how long you have to wait if you don’t purchase additional coins when the coins the game gifts you at the beginning run out. If you exhaust your supply of Coins, you may elect to purchase additional Coins and continue to play the games through the Service or you may wait until additional free Coins are available to you. The company’s terms of service state (in the middle of a long page of text): Seriously, do I have to worry about waking up tomorrow morning with Walter Sobchak yelling at me from one of my own extremities?īut there’s also the question of why the game’s developer, Israel-based Playtika, is advertising that Slotomania is free when, in order to keep spinning or playing after an initial batch of free coins expires, you have to spend money.John Goodman’s face on a finger is one of those things.īrought to you by the same people who received a Grammy Award nomination for directing the music video for Coldplay’s 2016 hit single “Up & Up,” ( yes, it’s true), this TV commercial for Slotomania, a “free” mobile slot game, raises a number of questions, among them: There are things in life that once you see them, you can’t unsee them.

Why can i not get on slotomania
