    This ads are ragebait, and they have nothing to do with the screenshots in their app. They advertise this way, because apparently it works for a lot of people.

        You play and play, new levels come.

        One day you decide to let him die. The rocks flow in, the king is crushed.

        A message pops up, “Congratulations, you have saved the people from tyranny!”

        Achicement unlocked pops up “The Good Ending.”

            Fair enough; but there is a sequel to this game and I suspect others of its like exist.

            I’m not familiar with the homeless lady referenced.

                It’s funny because I played homescapes well before these ads, they were just bejeweled like stuff. The ads then started and now every so often you get a puzzle from the ads do they can’t be sued for false advertising. At least, last I checked. Haven’t played for ages, watched a few people show them off though.
