Sugar-Coated Drug-Dealing Game Approved For iPhone

Pocket Gamer writes "Of course, Apple wouldn't allow such a salacious games as Dope Wars on the hallowed corridors of the App Store. What Catamount's done is sugarcoat its game (quite literally) and turned it into Prohibition 3: Candy Wars — a reskinned version of the exact same game."

    I think that inhaling any of the ingredients in the screenshot from TFA would be bad for you. Especially whole candy.

    Kidding aside, I don't think Apple had much choice. All it takes is five or ten idiots who can't see through their guise, and all of a sudden people are e-mailing them about keeping kid-safe apps off of the App Store.

    In conclusion, blame the shallow, gullible masses.
