Debating business models for my new Scrabble-inspired app:

* play the computer for free; subscription to play friends

* as long as one human is paying, they can play a nonpaying human

* sync with Lex.Games subs. I can detect these from the server. Is that even allowed for Apple-initiated subs?

* free for all but bonus features paywalled

* ads lol

@lexfri #1 won’t catch many, such as me. #3 is the kind of thing Apple has been a jerk about lately.

What about the daily puzzle only without a subscription? Doesn’t NYT do that for some things?

Limited features can work. Limit bot difficulty? Slow the bot down + no playing against people?
