Mutants: Genesis

[quote][b][url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microtransaction]Warning: Microtransaction infested mobile app![/url][/b] This game is infested with a toxic mobile app style cash shop. You will be prompted to and expected to give money to the developers through this cash shop to buy in-game goods so you can play the game.[/quote] "Mutants: Genesis" is one of thousands of nasty mobile apps infesting the "free" section of Steam, but it's not really free. This looks like yet another mildly sci-fi CCG battler, but once more that's just a flimsy veneer over a toxic cash shop... you'll quickly discover the winner of each fight is determined by who gave the most money to the mobile app developers in the nasty cash shop. Apparently you need to spend around $600 USD to be mildly competitive... there's no way to look at this other than what it is, a nasty cash grab scam. There's only a superficial game here. The game visuals and the game itself are incredibly shallow... think of them as the too-bright, colourful, thin plastic cabinet dress theme on a poker machine at the casino. That's basically what this is. So really, the mobile app "game" is just a veneer, a thin skin wrapped around a nasty, predatory mobile app cash shop. Putting that toxic mobile app monetisation aside... this is a mobile app. I didn't spend thousands on a gaming PC so I could pretend it's an iPhone, and I don't think you did either... this kind of mobile app has no place in your Steam library. Now on to pricing and value for gamers. Given that this free title won't increase your game collector count, is it worth your time to add it to your library? Definitely not. This isn't worth it. I'm paraphrasing another reviewer here, but this should be a paid product... they'd have to pay people to download it.
