I never stopped playing it, it's been fine the whole time. only pays out about 50 bits and takes forever to get enough points, but i always found it amusing for a few minutes. I think it's the music.
anyway, google only removed it because it was confusing. you had to collect black bitcoins (actual coins floating in the sky) and get enough to cash in for a reward, usually a few bits, but more depending on how much is in the pot. you also collected gold bitcoins in the same manner, these only have in-game value. People would see their score and think they were supposed to get that many btc, like, its easy to get 100s of them.

now you trade in collected btc for satoshis and collect bananas.

Interesting. This is the first time I've heard about the game.
Well then it's actually good when you need to kill some time. You get to have some fun and earn some bits in the process. Who knows, maybe those bits will be worth a lot more in the future.

Ooh, i've never heard of this game before. I'm glad its back on. I just might download it and play it. I hope it isn't a scamy game where you only ever make 0.0000001 bitcoin or something. They should add their own faucet or something.

Huh, interesting! I never actually tried it out, but I find the idea highly interesting. I think it would be a great way of drawing people to your game if you pay them for playing it (earn money to pay the players via ads or something) unfortunately it could be against the App Store's rules - obviously...

Didn't even realised it was gone, never uninstalled it Grin Glad it's back on, it's quite fun. Usual stuff from Apple to remove apps out of the blue, nothing unexpected or strange...

I think it's very interesting that they sort of paved the way for similar apps, or apps that deal in cryptocurrencies more than just being a plain old wallet. It's interesting to see what's on the horizon there!

Creator of Sarutobi said that the tech giant had removed SaruTobi over concerns that users could mistake its in-game bitcoin with real bitcoin. Once again Apple thinks that all theirs customers are idiots and protects them for their own good... That is why I will never use any Apple product. I don't like being treated like a child who don't know what is going on.

I've never heard about it also but i'll look into it after seeing few reviews.
It just sucks that there isn't any btc game that would be able to provide some real valuable rewards.

The only online casino on which i won something. I made 17mBTC from 1mBTC in like 15 minutes.  This is not paid AD!

I don't get why apple would cancel said game? Small amounts of bitcoins are literally perfect for addictive games. Imagine getting paid to beat flappy birds records. There is a big business there to be made.
