@TMU: Although Nitrome could get money for ad-free and God Powers, not everyone will pay for ad-free. For example, for iPhone versoin, for Icebreaker you are given one option - game for a price.

However, when given the option of the game for free plus ads or the game ad-free with the purchase of money, not everyone who would pay for the game in the iPhone sector would necessarily pay for it when given free and ads and premium and no ads. However, whether people do pay for no-ads is dependant by how Nitrome uses ads.

If ads don't interfere with gameplay, then only picky people would buy it. However, if it did (like an ad pops up at the bottom of the screen every 30 seconds), then that would cause people to want to buy ad free. Actually, it would be funny to see how many possible ways ads could interfere with the gameplay.
