Clash of Clans has been especially successful, occupying the No. 1 slot on Apple’s top-grossing iPad game chart in over five dozen countries for weeks, according to Supercell. The games are free to download and play, but, like FarmVille and a variety of other games, Supercell sells its users in-game currency so they can speed up their game progress and buy virtual goods.

The game sounds like a huge commercial success, according to media:

Random comments from the web:
>>>> are u buying gems for real cash?
>> I did purchase gems once. I figured the game was free so i could spend some money on it. Spent $100 but realized i probably shouldnt have after i used them all.

>>>> I get that urge to open my wallet and purchase gems on a daily basis but for Supercell, in an industry where Zynga is shedding employees and app are make it or break it, that's probably a great thing.
