In fact, these are cards, with a spicy bonus - a strip game. The moderators removed it from the store when Apple received an order to clean up erotic and near-erotic content. The head of Apple considered it his moral duty to observe the "cleanliness" of the site, not forgetting to reproach Android for its non-compliance.

I Am Rich

The game was created by developers who believe that Apple is too cynical and attracts low-paid labor from poor countries. The application exaggerated this situation as much as possible (it got to the point that users in the game caught "iPhone pickers" jumping out of windows. And the cherry on the cake - the app came out at a time when the situation with the suicides of Chinese pickers fleeing poor life and difficult conditions was exacerbated labor.
