But the same's true of most of the games I mentioned. You can play through the entire games without any in-game purchases, it just takes longer. I'll admit straight away that I haven't played a huge number of mobile/tablet games, but in the ones I've seen that have in-app purchases, it's always a way to get through the game faster or provide cosmetic features that aren't actually required to progress.
