I also converted gems to coins.
In the first two episodes I was constantly waiting for birds to recharge. I didn’t want to spend the gems on recharges though, because I was also wondering if that was wise. Perhaps later you might need those coins for a special car or upgrade… you don’t.
In the last two episodes I was constantly replaying races in order to earn coins for upgrades. Eventually that wore me down and I spent 400 gems in lieu of repeating the same old gold-mining exercise another 15 times.
I’ve already demonstrated my compulsive behavior with AB Space and it serves me well here. You’ll need that to complete AB Go for free… it feels more like a money grab than a game.
Even the coin doubler – which I’d highly recommend to preserve your sanity – feels overpriced. Which is odd, because I’ve paid that much and more for other apps and even other games. I guess here Rovio’s brazen monetization scheme is putting me in a defiant mood.
