Coin Line

I have had this since August of 2018. I am unsure if it has always had ads, but I don’t remember them initially and “restore” feature did not work, so perhaps they always have had ads? There is thankfully an inexpensive option to remove ads. 🟢Play in US coins, Euros, British Pounds, Japanese Yen or Renminbi. 💚Addictive. But educational (requires knowledge of money and their values to play- for example if you stack five pennies on to each other, they become a nickel; if you stack two nickels on each other they will become a dime; if you stack 10 dimes on each other they will become a $1 coin, if you stack 4 quarters on each other they will also become a $1 coin.) The goal is to stack the money until it becomes $5, at which point the $5 in coins will convert in to a five dollar bill and disappear from the game, allowing you more space to combine more money, as it continues to stack up all around you. The money you stack becomes your score- it keeps adding up until you reach the top of the screen (think Tetris), at which point whatever money you have amassed is your total score for that game round, and that money is accumulated into your “bank” , combined with “money” you earned from all your other rounds, and it can be spent on expanding the number of columns you play with, the height of the game or things like boosts to help you play the game longer/ make you earn money more quickly. 🛑Has (small, banner) ad across the bottom of the main screen [not during game play]) AND occasional video ads. 🟡Ads can be removed with a small reasonable, one-time purchase of $2.99 - I would like to do this but: ⚠️Permissions are excessive and it's unclear if when you purchase the "remove ads" if they stop collecting your private data or not, because the developer's website AND privacy policy link to pages that say they are not secure “not private”, so I could not read them!!

I’ve played other stackers and didn’t expect much out of this one. After a few plays, though, I’m starting to see the strategy and really enjoying it. The power ups are smart and the interface is clean. Beware: it’s highly addicting
