If you've ever gotten hooked on Candy Crush or Farmville, you know the lure of free games that offer premium content for purchase—Gamee is an app that totally rejects this kind of "fake free" gameplay.
Gamee describes itself as the first social network that's full of games that require absolutely no in-app purchases. Game types include retro arcades and puzzles that go back to the simpler times of gaming. The social aspect of Gamee comes into play by having a feed that shows which games are the most popular, as well as the ones your friends are playing. Scores are updated within the feed as well, challenging users to continually compete against themselves and others.
Since there are absolutely no hidden costs to Gamee, parents wont have to fret about unexpected credit card charges from their kids.
