If it’s cheap to get stars, I’m definitely having Dolph Lundgren at my next birthday party. Dude doesn’t have to do anything, just hang out.
Mobile games make an embarrassing amount of money exploiting addiction. It’s a “great” way to make a quick buck.
To put into context; Microsoft bought Activision/Blizzard for 69 Billion dollars. A huge portion of that was actually King.
Around 2014, over 93 million people were playing Candy Crush Saga, while revenue over a three-month period as reported by King was over $493 million. Five years after its release on mobile, the Candy Crush Saga series has received over 2.7 billion downloads, and the game has been one of the highest-grossing and most-played mobile apps in that time frame. As of September 2023, it had reached over $20 billion in revenue.
Safe to say mobile market makes a lot more money we’d be comfortable with.
I shared my arcade membership with my mom a while ago (I had gotten it included) and it put her purchases on my card. This bio-chemist (very smart lady in some specific subjects) spent over $25 on ‘micro’ transactions in a week or so. They prey on the group that just want to get things done.
mobile gamespocket casinosFreemium games are kinda hit and miss. But if it hit, the cash can be absofuckinglutely huge. And the misses aren’t even that costly. So they try again and again. Good marketing is the key though, because in the flood of similar products the ones on top of the feed gets downloaded, hence i wouldn’t be even very surprised if that marketing costs were greater than actual development of the game.
You sure Dolph won’t be busy busting heads because he smelled crime or performing outrageous sexual experiments on his incredibly hot but skeptical female lab partner?
Crime, penetration, crime, penetration, crime, full penetration.
Supercell makes a lot of money, that’s for sure
Who are the stars?
Is that really Hemsworth? I thought it was just a good impersonator.
I found an article that explains who everyone is (except, hilariously, for Dolph Lungren) https://chipandco.com/hollywood-stars-face-off-against-social-media-influencers-in-launch-trailer-for-squad-busters-566523/
Word of warning that page is terrible with an ad blocker. I wouldn’t approach it without one
Thanks…you weren’t wrong about the page. It’s basically an add for the game with adds all the way down!
From the article:
Chris Hemsworth, Christina Ricci, Ken Jeong, Will Arnett, And Auli’i Cravalho Squad Up in Launch Trailer for Squad Busters
The Hollywood gang, while quipping about Ricci’s skeleton-summoning staff, encounter another player’s squad whose characters are played by Internet sensations including TikTok superstar [Bella Poarch]as Witch, real-life woodcutter [Thoren Bradley] as Greg, lip-syncing legend [Gabriela Moura]as Shelly and YouTube extraordinaire [ZHC] as Chicken.
In a knowing wink to the viewer, Seth Phillips, better known as [Dude With Sign] makes a brief cameo during the battle to ‘appeal to a younger audience’
“And to appeal to old cunts who saw Masters Of The Universe when it came out in Cinemas, Dolph Lungren …”
Btw it’s me that’s the old cunt, saw it with some mates for someone’s birthday. Was very underwhelmed
Don’t forget Expendables 4…he is sober now as the sniper but is half blind due to his age and can’t hit the side of a barn door from 20 m away.
You have to go back to the early days to discover the true genius of Dolph like Maximum Potential he has a Maters in Science yet he sounds like a boxer who left high school at 16 and had been in the ring for 10 years.
And now I’m gonna go watch Universal Soldier again
Slip a bit of Thunder Gun in there as well.

Apart from Hemsworth, I recognize Gob from Arrested Development, and the dentist-turned-actor who played the Spanish teacher in Community (and bad guy in Hangover).
