Money-making Match 3 games, Real or Fake? Day 2
Match 3 games day 2
When playing online money-making games we need to remember
that we will always have to watch ads. This is how the developers make their
money and without ads, no money can be distributed through the games. We should
remember that not all online money-making games are legitimate and give cash
out as the games are advertised. So, I would pass on the advice that we need to
be careful when downloading money-making games.
Many of the match-3 games I have played this year not only
made me watch video ads but also charge for power-ups. I stay away from these
sorts of games because I need to make money not spend it. One of the reasons I
chose to start my blog was because I got into trouble spending money to make it
and never came out ahead. I chose to have my purchases through apps shut off so
I am no longer able to make purchases while playing games on apps. Is this the move
everyone should take? I do not know, but
for me it works and keeps me from spending money I do not really have.
My husband did not understand how I could just spend money
and did not realize how much I was spending. I explained to him that my head
only looks at winning and getting ahead. I have an addictive personality that
needs to control the outcomes. If I start something I need to finish it,
whether that be a book, movie, tv series or game. When in a competition in a
game, I want to be first in the race so my brain wants to stay on this one task
until I win. It started out small, $1.99 here and there, then $4.99 wasn't bad.
We would be ok, except before I knew it was $19.99 or $49.99 that would get me
to the next level. Each level needed to be finished no matter what. It
wasn't until I was exhausted and hungry that I finally broke down and told my
son what I had done. Three days of no sleep and very little to eat as I sat on
my phone hoping that I could get through the level and finally withdraw the
money. Sadly, the withdrawal never comes and I have just wasted our food money
on foolishness. It is no different than gambling but playing online
money-making games at home felt safer.
So here are a few of the games that I have played and not
spent money on that I am unable to withdraw my earnings from. A lot of these
games are so much alike I would think I would know better than to think I would
win. Unfortunately, the ads are set up to get you hooked on playing games by showing
real live people winning so much money. Yes, I do believe there are some
legitimate games online but the majority are fake.
Turtle Looking for home
Seller- Kalsi Sharma
The preview for this game states:
”This is
a game to help the little turtle find a home. Compare with your friends to see
who can find the little turtle's house in the shortest time.”
This game has a good rating of 4.6 out of 5 from 922 ratings.
Well, that is until we read the individual reviews. Most are not very promising.
First off in the game that is downloaded there is no turtle looking for home. No,
this is a typical match-3 online game. It
is so simple until you get to level 4 and realize it is impossible to beat. To
read the reviews please visit: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/turtle-looking-for-home/id6738021948?l=ru&see-all=reviews
While playing Turtle Looking for home, Soap Bubbles Game was
advertised so I downloaded it of course. These two games are exactly alike with
the same background and playing tiles. The difference is that they are sold by
different people.
Soap Bubbles Game
Seller- Ramika Garg
The preview for this game states:
“This is a Soap Bubbles Game. The
function is :
1.Calculate the sum below based on
the numerical relationship provided above.
2.Select the correct option below
based on the text described above.”
This game has a good rating of 4.7 out of 5 from 763
ratings. The ratings are mixed again and people who have not won the first 3
levels give it a good review. Again, as most match-3 games level 4 is
impossible to beat and you cannot withdraw your earnings. Read the rating for
yourself at: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/soap-bubbles-game/id6737454353?see-all=reviews
I have taken a picture of each game on level 4 and as you
will see, I played them a lot and have nice balances.
If anyone knows how they can get away with this please send me a message and let me know. My curiosity has me wondering.

Of these three games Wooden Tile & Triumph was my least
liked.
It had a lot of forced ads which just pop up right in the middle
of game play. The tiles in this game are much too small and on level 5 it seems
to be way too many pieces. The colors are similar and a little hard to look at.

Match 3D now and see how far you can go!”
Juice Match 3D was my favorite online money-making match-3 game. Sadly, it froze up on
me and I am unable to finish watching the videos so I can withdraw my money. I made it to level 86 before it went away. It was by far the best fun and addictive game play. I do not believe I used my power-ups more than once but added more spots several times. Strangely, I went to log in one day and there were no bottles or crates to be found. I looked for an update but never found one. I am currently waiting 30 days for my first small withdrawal. Guess I will find out sometime in February if it really does pay.

This game has a 4.7 out of 5 from 481 ratings.
I see that many people are rating the
game before they actually get to the withdrawal level. This makes these games
look better than they really are. I know a lot of games pop up the rating star
window in the first or second level and I refuse to give a rating before I see
the withdrawal process. My belief is that if everyone would wait and only rate
after they realize they cannot win then possibly some of these fake games would
go away.
I did not make it too long playing this game
as level 3 is not beatable. So, this app will go into the delete file!
I do believe that I have reviewed enough
games for today. Tomorrow, I think I will talk about the games where I do win
sometimes. (Not very often) Until then, have a wonderful night and I hope you
are enjoying my blog.
