Let's Unite (Game Dev Story must go)

I'm not out to hurt anyone's reputation. But its fairly obvious that this game has strong suspicions of being a scam.

I was browsing featured apps in the Android market and I came across "Game Dev Story". The description seemed really stupid, but the ratings were high. I decided to read the ratings.

Here are some of the 5 star reviews:
"Yardell: This game is like a black hole:. You start it up; it sucks you in;and then you're losing entire nights to it. A+!"

"Puzzlespider: As employee for one of the biggest game companies, I have to say, this is quite epic. Love it!"

"Richard: Great and addicting."

"Andy: Great game but dangerously addictive!"

"gskspurs: Additive! Works great on my DesireHD. Best game in Android"
(I think he means Addictive)

"Alan: I can't put it down, help! Game is awesome!"

"Andrew: Horrendously addictive. The best game on android. I got so engrossed I forgot to go to bed last night!"

"Nicholas: Wonderful game. Very addicting. My wife and I are looking forward to an update, with additional content."

All the reviews <5 Stars

"Dan Noll: Cant refund? CANT REFUND???"

"Tomac: Worked ok for a little, then closed out suddenly (not force closed). Was stuck with a blank blue screen. uninstalled, couldn't reinstall without purchase"

"Aaron: Lame"

"Jimmy: It wont install, wont refund and nobody will do anything about it"

"Anne Marie: I have payed for this game but it won't download !!!"

"Paul: Something's up with this, currency is yen and I couldn't get my purchase authorised!"

"Dylan: I payed for it but it said could not authorize, then it wouldn't give me a refund"

"Underattack86: Will NOT install on my DesireHD"


This game may not be safe. I'm not going to pay 3 dollars to see how bad it is, but since all of the reviews 5 stars or better claim that it is "addictive", and any review not 5 stars claims how it wont install, and no refund is given, I would be weary that this is a scam.

Please take the time and report this app to Google for them to do an investigation.

Game Dev Story for Android: it’s a hell of a drug - Droid Life: A Droid Community Blog reviews it (legit site btw) and the game is a port of the iOS version. As for the inability to refund, blame Google. The new refund policy is 15 minutes, which is quite short.
