Does anyone know why so many "celebrities" are doing adverts for Royal Match?! (lemmy.world)

I keep getting adverts for it with people like Simon Cowell, Olly Murs, Take That etc advertising it.

First of all, why would they do it when they've already got millions in the bank?

Secondly, it's exactly the same as Candy Crush and all the other identical games, so why is it so popular?

And finally, wtf is up with Simon Cowell's eyes?!

Luckily I've managed to escape these (ad and tracker blockers ftw), but it sounds a lot like the coin master rubbish featured in an old Jarvis Johnson video.

The guy actually composing a song for it though. Are the royal match ads as bad as these?

Omg I didn’t know Jarvis did a video about this!

I hope he does one about Royal Match. I’m so tired I’ve seeing the guy from Suits in the middle of the Grindr grid selling a crappy mobile game.

You could suggest it to him. He might!
