    The sales stopped because the developer took the app from the store and made it really really hard to get thereby. He did it because he didn’t want people to get addicted to phone games and contribute to that. So for him it was morals over money, literally! You can read about it on wikipedia

        I mean, I’m not sure that it doesn’t. That was just a lottery ticket moment; those are always rare.
