I believe it got it a long time ago from the UK app store. It was free there. DelBoy2181 Well-Known Member Mar 14, 2011 857 0 0 London, England #6 DelBoy2181, Jul 5, 2013 This sale is a joke. 99c on the US AppStore but 99p on the UK AppStore?? 99c does not equal 99p! This game was also previously free over a year ago, but only in the US store. I don't like they way they treat other markets, like the UK one, differently.

However, in this case you're essentially just complaining that these developers didn't lower the price of their game enough for your liking, which is a position it is hard to have sympathy for. Regardless of how much the game is going for while on sale in other stores, the sale price in your store is still a mere third of the full price, so you're still saving money by buying it now. The game has already gone back up in price in a number of countries, so it's all going to be a moot point in a couple of hours when the sale finishes worldwide. The old version of Papa Sangre went free for a day a single time in 2011 before it was pulled entirely from the app store, but originally its companion piece The Nightjar was only available in the UK and was also entirely free. Arguing that you've been treated unfairly by these developers doesn't really hold up when the rest of the world only just got TN for the first time in April this year, and it wasn't (and still isn't) free for them. andsoitgoes Well-Known Member Jun 30, 2010 2,673 58 48 In a van, down by the river! #10 andsoitgoes, Jul 5, 2013 It didn't even go free for more than a few hours, there's little doubt it was a mistake as no one was able to get it, at least no one that posted about it on the forums.
