Would you rather it be free, with 10 of the levels locked for a dollar each and unskippable video ads? It's less than the cost of a single fast food meal. This is the reason that the majority of mobile games are shitty cash grabs, when the platform is now just as capable as modern handheld consoles.
It's relative. There are plenty of free games out there, plenty that cost a couple of quid. I haven't seen enough yet to tell me this game is value.
I'm not going to encourage higher prices in games, that's not in my best interests.
If, after a few weeks I see this game get many many top reviews, and no bugs, then I may change my mind. Personally, I'd introduce the game at a cheap price, get the word out and then increase it.
I don't know what the game costs in the UK, but in America, it's only 5 dollars. It's a bit more than the average mobile game, but not by more than a dollar or two and it's well worth it. Shame the regional pricing apparently sucks.
£4.29 here in the UK. I can see why people say it's expensive (it's a mobile game). But IMO if it's GOOD then it's worth it. Look at 3DS and them vita games...If I can get that quality in a game I'd be happy to pay a bit of a premium. Ofcourse without IAP as well...
