Outfit7 came under attack from German regulators
The developer of the Talking Tom series has received a claim from one of the German regulators. According to the latter, Outfit7 may have violated German advertising legislation. The fact is that My Talking Angela is aimed at children (according to the age marking, the project can be played from the age of three), but the cost of one IAP in the game can reach hundreds of euros. The regulator believes that this should not be the case in a child’s game. The title is also accused of intrusive advertising that encourages the making of such payments.

FortniteKing has released a new game in the Saga series
The world launch of the new three-in-a-row from King took place. The novelty is called Candy Crush Friends Saga. Its key difference from the previous games in the series is the appearance of characters and loot boxes.
Characters give boosters for collected chips of a certain color when passing a level. For example, a player collects ten red chips, for which a pair of boosters flies out onto the field. Before the level, the player can choose a character (there are a little more than 20 of them so far).
To get a character, the player must collect a certain number of stickers with him. Stickers are poured out of boxes that can be reached at the level.
