Just downloaded the new classic version with ads and wanted to pass along a suggestion that Thor makes.

While I understand that you’ve gotta make a living, ads are far more palatable if the user can consent to them.

And the way to make the user a part of the process is to offer a trade for the ad, rather than obtrusively running them.

“Would you like 500 gold to watch an ad?”

Yes? Ad for in-game currency that provides powerups? That’s a great deal and it’s win/win.

No? Okay, no ad, but no power up.

Statistically, you almost always get a yes, but the players are 100x happier than the slimey games that force ads in unscrupulous ways.
