This is the Second Time our credit card was hacked. and many other aspects of this dubious little empire. Why didn't BFG?Īnd as another commenter here said, it's always iffy when your terms and conditions include a promise that you won't take a class action suit out against the company you're signing up with. Real live companies always issue bills and receipts. I think BFG has a real conflict of interest situation going on with its reviews system tbh, and it needs to be sorted out - how can it be legit for a games developer (which is what BFG is) to screen reviews of its own games? Oughtn't they to put a disclaimer on the website stating that they are biased in favour of their own product? Clearly they are, and not stating that fact straight up is dishonest to say the least.Īs with others, I was wrongly charged by them for about 6 months and was able to get a refund, so I can't claim I was scammed, but I am quite wary due to the fact that they never bothered emailing me a confirmation for ANY of those billings. because if I buy a game that I hate based on fudged reviews, all that happens is that I don't trust the reviews anymore, or the company. It's low, it's cheap and it makes everyone unhappy in the end.
It seems obvious to me then, that Big Fish is fudging the numbers to make games that I wouldn't like, seem like they are good for every player. Naturally, one starts to ask, how many of the other negative reviews got binned? The reason given for the rejection is always vague, and that's probably because there IS no reason: I don't do spoilers, I don't use profanity, I follow all the other niggly little criteria that they insist upon, and still these reviews get rejected.Īt the same time, I've noticed that a lot of the newer games consistently getting 4 and 5 star reviews, even when they look like tosh, and some of them are the same games where my own negative reviews have been rejected. Now it seems like about half the reviews I give that are under 4 stars are rejected. When I first signed up to BFG I was able to post whatever reviews I wanted, regardless of whether they were 2, 3, or 5 stars. I can only write an honest, negative review about Big Fish games here, it seems, so that's what I'm doing. This is by no means a cheap game, and I suspect it's algorithms detect a lot more than they could legally reveal. But this game should be avoided by anyone looking for cheap thrills on the internet.
I won't even admit here what I spent in the last year, but let's just say I could have a new Lexus in my driveway. The graphics are excellent and the games are seriously well crafted, but the business behind these cute little icons can be catastrophic. I'm not even addicted to gambling in Vegas and I became super addicted to this game. It acts as a shakedown of any chips you may have, forcing you to purchase new ones if you want to keep the fun going. Of course this isn't fail-safe, just the m.o.Īs you go up in VIP tiers however, these wins become less frequent and the cold spells between jackpots increases to 400-800 spins. Around every 40-50 spins there is generally a "Big Win!". This is how they condition you to expect a small win in these intervals. When you first start playing, you notice the wins come every 5-11 spins.
