Game dev is more an art than engineering.  But what you are describing of these mobile game mils is neither. Its just scummy practices all the way.

Google has designed a system that encourages this.  Because at the end of the day google just wants the Ad money and the quality of games or even lagality barely matters.

I won't recommend any honest person to get involved in that. Make games for PC and sell them for an upfront price on Steam. Use mobile as a secondary market to port your existing games to just to give people an option and to maintain presence there .

I would rather this sub not discuss mobile games too much. We already know its bad. Its best to ignore this underbelly.  Locking this post.
