This game.
Sooooo… who wants to join my Kanye West game project? 
(It’s all just based on speculation. But still.)
Why do you think you can? You don’t have the IP right to do so, and would get sued into extinction within a day.
And how does $85 become $200?
Pretty sure it was a joke. Either way, this is off topic, the original post mentioned nothing about IP rights, it’s about making a cool trending game.

I choose not to believe this is real, even if it is real.

I don’t want to live in this Universe anymore.
This is what I fudging hate about the mobile market. Someone makes an awesome game with years and years of effort put into it, markets it as much as he can with his limited resources and gets pushed to the back of the line by shitty games like this.

Another ‘bird brains’ game?! 
Read the article, game is on track to make $200m in the course of a year.
doesnt surprise me… doesnt please me either.
obviously the main mistake in my game ideas is that you require something between your ears. bummer.

People like to h8 on her but they really love her. Look d33p into your heart and tell me I’m wrong.
You’re wrong.

After I read this post, I went home and downloaded the game. At first, I was disgusted with the obvious click-here to get everything mechanics! Yet, I kept playing - to dig deeper - and began to realize that if I swapped Kardashian with an Orc, the game plays a lot like a simple RPG.
The people who play these games are not mindless drones. Instead of eagerly railing against hte machine, take a moment to truly study the Kardashians, Candy Crushes, and other successful titles you love to hate. GROK what the average person likes about them. Learn, improve - be a professional.

I think you’re missing the point.
Arguably though, I suppose its fair to say we’re mostly analytic men here and this game is targeting giddy girls so naturally our opinions are going to be on the negative.
It’s because when you have money you can game the system.
Just like you can buy twitter followers, facebook followers, website traffic, you can also buy mobile app downloads and mobile ratings/reviews. Which will bump you up in the charts and increase exposure.
The mobile market is dead for indies. The odds of attempting to beat the big studios or big players is the equivalent of of hitting a jackpot. Some will strike it rich, but for the large majority it will be a total loss of time and money.
They actually are. The people who play the Kardashian game (and other junk like it) are incredibly stupid. I guarantee around 95% of them have exceptionally low IQs, I know, I have relatives like that. They are young, they are incredibly dumb and will part with their money over something very stupid if its perceived to be “cool” even if its totally brain-dead. They’ll know everything about the Kardashian game or the TV show, but ask them do something basic like add or subtract, or ask them general knowledge question and they wont know the answer.
That’s why Kim has to step it up so like Katy she can teach elementary physics and titillate at the same time:

Seriously though, as Gigiwoo says it’s too easy to dismiss and frown upon this game. What they did is adapt and market a role-playing game to a new, vast and - I think we all can agree - generous audience. And it paid off. Let’s not forget it’s not like Kim made the game on her own. There are definitely smart and talented people involved. On the other hand if the game did not have the power of Glu behind it, would it have ever taken off?
Is there a word that combines awe, respect, jealousy and disgust?
