Ehhhh most of the “free top 100” still had ads

What I feel like doesn’t exist anymore is the ability to pay like $0.99 for an app like “Jelly Car” and have it hold or collective attention for months. Phone games evolved and we didn’t know how good we had it.

True, but I feel like back then an app with ads just had a banner at the bottom or something. Now "ads" means a full screen unskippable video every few minutes. No thanks.
