MODERATORS
They all have such predicable names too:
War of Heroes: King Battle
The Great City: Global War
Arena of Warriors: Fire Multiplayer
I just made all three of those up, but I bet you there are games with names similar or even identical to that on the Play Store right now
You are totally right, there is a boatload of shovelware free2play/pay2win games on the Play Store. They all sound the same, they probably all are the same. I get the feeling that these games are auto-generated. Just have the same base game and swap out strings and maybe assets, autogenerate a new title and publish it.
