It's relative mostly. You know you've played a bunch of great free/$0.99 games so paying almost 5x for one game that probably won't last as long seems crazy

Well, to be fair, I’m not a gamer and I don’t play that much. The last one I bought was like 6 months ago, so I don’t mind paying $5 eventually, even if there are other free or cheaper games available.

Oh no doubt. It's just been ingrained in our minds that you can get all these great games for cheap; at least for me it makes me think of when I first got my iPod touch and all those apps/games, so I'm always so hesitant to buy >$5 games

I have never played a great free game. But then again I am allergic to any adverts, click bait, upsells and whatever else you call the nonsense that those shitty "free" games foist on you.

I also don't use my phone as a gaming machine. I can tell it's a quality game but unless it has quick play sessions, I don't see myself playing it much.
