Gears - GameClub

When you download it, it redirects you to pay a huge fee offsite to play it to something called GamesClub. This is against Apple TOS, and it’s a scam. Reported.

I bought this back in 2011, it’s criminal that now I have to pay a $15 subscription to play it

I love this game. I played it back in the "old days" and just remembered it out of the blue. I just wish I could buy the whole game ONE time, and not have to subscribe to GameClub. I don't intend to play other GameClub games, just Gears and I don't want to pay for games I don't think I'll play. Even if we could subscribe for this one game it would be better than having to buy ALL the games. Or something where you watch ads (maybe 2-3) to unlock a level which stays unlocked for a period of time, maybe a few hours. I would be fine with that. Sad, because it's such a great game, but I don't want to buy an auto-renewing subscription for one game any more than I would buy Netflix for one movie.

this game is very fun but you must pay to go on and in the old tome you didint had to so i think they should take it off that but i still think is fun i have been playing this with my cousin since i was small and you dint had to pay so they should take the payment out and let be free so its more fun and better but i think that this agme is still fun

It's not bad. But the subscription pretty much made this game worse instantly.

Seriously?, I owned this game and now I have to pay a subscription to play it? No thanks, I’ll pass

Deleting from my phone now that a forced subscription model is enabled and an account required to play No thanks. I only buy games without this and to have it forced after the fact is a beach of trust.

...it was bought, originally, as a one time purchase. The sale and subsequent “subscription revenue model” for game club are a deal breaker for me. Not because I object to subscribing, outright, but because of the sense of a broken promise. Once sold as an indefinite license, it should remain an indefinite license. I have a budget for subscriptions and I’m not spending that budget on anything that breaks a promise. Because ... why would I? The number one issue with subscription models is trust, and if the trust is already broken from the outset, that’s a problem. There are ways to rework this such that purchasers of the original game aren’t forced into the subscription. It’s implementable in the AppStore, and I’ve seen it work. This then constitutes an unforced error on Game Club’s part, having purchased it from the former developer.

When I was into marble runs back then this game was related to what I had in mind I am glad this game is compatible to date But I have one question can you add an owl on rivers of magma Level 9 when I played this back then there were lots of owls but now I only found one on rivers of magma Level 8 but no other levels But awesome game though

I am glad Corey Redlien and Josh Presseisen did whatever they did to be able to bring this game back to life. Excellent game. High replay value. Now, guys, move forward with the additional worlds you had planned so many years ago!
