[quote]According to PocketGamer, Apple booted the game because the Cupertino company was "uncomfortable selling a game based around the theme of running a sweatshop." The game was released in November 2012 and stayed under Apple's radar until earlier this year.[/quote]

Wow, this is actually pretty well designed.

Wow it's very good.
Too close to home, Apple?
Ugh, playing the game for a while threw me into a light depression.
I mean, I can't blame the creators, they are doing a good job, people should know this, but fuck

Time to play a bit more Postal 2 to fix my mood.
Pretty cool, it's basically a tower defense.
This is a quite entertaining game actually. Nice art and design, essentially tower defense.
