Paint It Back - GameClub

On a whim I looked up this game again and was absolutely delighted to see it actually back! …however when checking its reviews and hearing about a subscription that delight faded away. For $5 a month you can play EVERY game club game to its fullest, but if you want to play just one, you’re completely out of luck, you can’t buy just one game like you could back when they were first on the App Store. If you DID own it you can contact them to get it back and people have actually gotten it back that way it seems! But personally, I never got a reply even saying my proof wasn’t enough from them. You used to be able to buy this game but now you’re forced to pay a membership even if this is the only one you care for. I hope they add a single purchase option because I understand having the old game offloaded not being enough proof, but I still want to play this game again like I used to.

I used to play this game all the time when I was real young, a nice puzzling time killer for when I’m watching a movie I don’t like or at my brother’s football game. Once it was taken off the app store, I was pretty disappointed, but now that it’s back I’m pretty happy! Especially since I got the full game back after I first bought it back then! Now I do think the membership is a bit ridiculous... I think there should be a single price for this game, like 4.99 for the whole game rather than get the membership for more games that we don’t play. Just my thoughts, the game is okay but for some reason it seems to be missing some sound effects... but it could be a purposefully made change.

A good friend of mine showed this to me and I got a good bit of mileage out of it a few years back. I used to LOVE this game. I saw an ad for this today, and decided to re-download it. Now, the game is no longer free. You need to pay 5 dollars a month to get access this and a bunch of other games... which is a terrible business practice. I want to play THIS game. I have no interest in other games provided in this service. If this were some new standalone game made just for this service I would have not cared. But that isn’t the case. This service turned a completely free game with optional IAP’s into a game that appears free- but costs 5 dollars a MONTH to have access to. I don’t think I would mind paying a flat fee of 5 dollars or so for access to just this game, but I don’t have that option. These developers are holding this game for ransom, a game that once costed nothing now requires 60 dollars a year to have continued access to. I’m incredibly unhappy with this turn this game has taken, and I hope it either becomes free once more, or there is an option to pay for maybe certain game for a flat fee rather than having to pay 5 dollars a month for it.
