    The Mafia Boss ads get me every time. Starting as a Level 1 crook then immediately take down a level 30 mob boss, take his money and his girl and the mob boss just starts crying. Truly groundbreaking material here.

    My favorite ads are those ones where a woman playing the game finds out you have a high level in the game and reacts like they want you to just go down on them immediately, then a jealous dude nearby asks, “how did you do it?” Then the guy just gives a full on guide on how to play the game.

It's just a freaking puzzle game and one ad of theirs even has a cliffhanger of a almost r*pe situation. It truly gets my blood boiling. I try to report the game every time one of their ads pop up to me, and luckily their ads stopped appearing to me. But I just can't forget them and I don't understand what kind of sexual predators was the game trying to cater to.

      My hypothesis is that all these ads are tailored to make you angry at it, where you witness a bad decision takenby the narrator just so you will "go and show them how it works". Or they hope you will want to see what happens. You find out the game is nothing like the ad, but at least you're already there, you just might play it...

    I just don’t understand how they can make those ads and not think “wait… why don’t we just actually MAKE this, instead of our actual shitty unoriginal game?”

    Mobile game ads are formulaically designed to follow the exact patterns that draw in the most downloads. We're not looking at someone's wacky video idea, we're taking a deep look into the human subconscious, and it scares us.

      I think these ads are akin to the way every TH-camr says "like subscribe ring the bell" -- we THINK it's some dumb idea and nobody likes it, but in terms of statistics, it actually is the best method to draw people in.

      @@loulou3676 Yeah, the way they actually make these ads is that they'll release slightly different versions of the same ad, see which one draws more attention, and then keep following the pattern until the ad itself is complete nonsense, but is drawing a ton of downloads.

      Anytime I stumble across a comment like this I start to believe people in statistics are not real.

      Or the ads where the player does stupid stuff and it robs the viewer of a closure so people would download the game. The mind game is insane.

    The ones that keep me invested are the ones where they talk about the amount of power their base can produce. “Mine has 1000000 power.” Everyone in unison, “How did you do that?!” Then the dude gives you a full guide on how to get to their stature in the game.
