Here is todays Exclusive Offer Item for Beeline's Smurfs' Village game. It's a Robot that Smurfs love! Hey kids! Get your parents to buy this, cause your Smurfs will love it! Will they? No, no they won't. They don't interact with it at all. So there's lie number one right there. What does it do? It wanders around aimlessly. It stops every so often and turns around. If you touch it, the head flips back to reveal another head driving it underneath. A marvel of pogramming right there, totally worth your $10 investment. It has no quests, no farming applications and no animations interacting with anything. You can buy a full game on PSN, the Nintendo E-shop, or even on itunes for less. This is simply a rip off.
Unlike 99% of Exclusive Offer items, the Smurf-O-Tron does not generate XP either. A really good point, purposely left out of the description of the item. Some moron programmer must have been too high to program that in. Here's what really makes me laugh, it says that the "Space Items May Differ In Color And Appearance" and yet, you can only place this thing in space!!!! Why the hell would you state that your item that can only be placed in one area, will possibly be differently painted when placed IN THAT AREA???? Was this line left there out of laziness, or is Beeline again trying to dupe people into thinking you can place this character anywhere? My guess is it is a little of both. Beeline wants to make money as bad as it can, so any dishonest tactic that can help sway your purchase will be employed.
Final note, there is no official word regarding if this item eats into your character count, or not. Buyer beware as is always the case with Beeline.
