buying gems, if you are in the USA, $1.99 isn't much and 50 gems definetely makes the game move, whether to upgrade the hybernation cave, or just to get another breed started before going to bed.

For kids, eg 6 year olds, they don't have the $1.99, worse people in other countries on lower incomes wher $1.99 can buy them lunch e.g Thailand and places that have sweat shops.

I defintely like dragonvale because it is a level playing field not becasue of where you live or how rich you or your parnts are, but how much effort you put in, do the maths and orgainized are.

But I do buy my some gems sometimes (6 year old) as Backflip does need to stay in busines and they seem to have the game that does the least to groom kids for future gambling (no slot machines in Dragonvale), and has the least need for micro / in game transactions to play, no advertising, doesn't need facebook if you are too young for an account.

Not sure why people use jail broken devices ........ removes the point of the game ........

My son loves his hybernation cave,
