That's what makes me sad about the current Tetris game, on iOS.

One of my favorite games ever, and I'd gladly pay for an ad-free version, but they don't have it. I assume there's much more money to be made with ads, over subscriptions.

I think there's money to be made with both, but there's more money to be made by not maintaining two separate models, so ads win.

Oh, the Rubik's Cube app has both actually - the subscription gets rid of the ads you have to watch to get more solves.

A penetrating observation that feels true. Too bad.
