No ads. Ever.

From enthusiasts, for enthusiasts. We collect coins and we play games, and we have never met anyone who enjoyed an ad in the middle of either. So we made a promise that covers every app we make, and every app we ever will.

No ads in any app

No banners, no videos, no “watch an ad to continue”. Not in Metals, not in Dictatorville, not in anything that comes next.

No selling your attention

No ad networks, no tracking code from other companies, no data brokers. What you do in our apps is none of anyone's business.

Nothing to pay your way out of

Since there are no ads, there is never a “remove ads” purchase. What you buy from us is something you keep.

Hold us to it

If you ever see an ad in one of our apps, write to support@timastudios.app. It's a bug, and we'll treat it like one.

Why we care this much

When ads pay the bills, an app gets designed to keep you looking at it for as long as possible. When you pay the bills, it gets designed to be worth it. We'd rather be the second kind of studio.

Ads are also the most common way your data leaves your phone. Without them, the simplest promise is the true one: your records, your progress and your habits stay with you.

So how do we make money?

Metals

Free, with optional tips if it saves you time.

Dictatorville

Free, with optional one-time purchases: more gnomes, neighborhoods and the President for Life upgrade.

We may advertise our own apps elsewhere, for example in the App Store. That's us knocking on doors, not ads inside your apps.
