SUBSCRIBE to Never Miss a Theory! ► goo.gl/kQWHkJ
I'm sure you've been playing a game or watching a video on your phone when suddenly it is interrupted with an add for a weird and fake looking mobile game. I've seen a lot of channels try out these games to see if they play as advertised, but they haven't covered what I find most interesting about these games. Are they LEGAL? False advertising is a dangerous game, Theorist, so why do these mobile games get away with it? Let's find out!

The truth is that sadly those fake games are harder to monetize. You can have millions of levels and power ups and in game purchases with a match 3 game with little art cost, but with a pull the key style game, there is only so much you can do before you run out of art or ideas.

[@razorback9999able]

I think the main problem with these ads popping up frequently and to no end is because of lax regulations on online advertising. The lesson learned is this: any new thing without rules or regulations can be exploited for malicious gain, and mobile companies abuse these ads (includes psychological tricks to attract players) with no end in sight.

[@lelandharris9639]

They should make a system AI for if a half-assed mobile game is added to their app, it monitors the downloads and deletions. If the game is deleted continuously in a matter weeks and uses false advertisement should be instantly deleted and banned from the store. Just like how KZbin monitors demonitization. It would make more room for actual games that don't profit off of people's stupidity and ad revenue. It would fix the App Stores issue, or they could ACTUALLY monitor their app and get rid of all these terrible games.
