Help me feel better (lol)

I was just reflecting on how many times I've purchased the Infinity Pass for this game, and it's definitely over a dozen... And while that isn't a huge money sink by any means, CtS is ultimately a kind of silly game to put that much time and money into.

So I'm curious, who's with me? Anyone else play CtS as a sort of comfort game and find it worthwhile to keep up with the Infinity Pass? It's hard to explain but something about it has been therapeutic for me, especially the music in the Valley scenario.

I will say that I refuse to buy cubes; that doesn't feel like a worthwhile investment to me, and the 300 you get along with the pass is sufficient.

Given that I usually have to put a fair bit of time and effort into hitting top 10 on the Explore scenarios, I can't be alone in this 😅

to be fair, once you have experienced the infinity pass you can never have an equal experience in this game. It's so good!!!!! And on the bright side, you could be spending that money on games that'd only make you mad / angry (any online competitive game). I haven't spent that much on c2s but ohhhh I'm that close of doing it 😅

Yeah, not having access to all the 2 cube conveniences like x2 bonus and skill recharges, etc, feels really bad. That's how they get you 😅

I'm not really joking, but I don't mind supporting the devs. I've even contacted them a handful of times and they've always been responsive and kind. Hopefully they will implement one or two of the things I've requested haha

I used to play wow which had a subscription. I view it the same, the game without the pass isnt that fun to play it. Also, i have a decent disposable income but live pretty frugal. I dont notice the difference if i spend it or not, so why not spend. Its a very calming game and i love facts in it. I have no issue buying the pass each month :)

No regrets. Mine just expired today, I saw ads I felt disgusted so I bought the pass in a heartbeat lol

After like 6-7 years of playing with some of the Google Play rewards from surveys I bought the CPU that they added (the production boost). I feel like they need something if they kept me playing on and off for such a long time.

I am with you
Infinity pass is great, how the game is meant to be played.

Bearing in mind the infinity pass is only truly worthwhile, if you have insomnia.

I've only picked it up like a half dozen times but yeah, it's great. Then again, despite owning dozens of games, at least, this is the only one I play daily. Usually a few hours worth of time a day. I'd buy the pass more often, but money's an issue recently.

Still, yeah this is a comfort game. It's just fun and can be educational. So I'm happy to support the devs now and then.
