The phrase refers to the acquisition of modified versions of a popular mobile strategy game, distributed without the authorization of the original developers. These versions often grant users unfair advantages within the game, such as unlimited resources or unlocked content. For instance, players might gain immediate access to all cards and in-game currency without adhering to the standard progression system.
The interest in obtaining these modified versions stems from the desire to circumvent the typical gameplay constraints and accelerate progress. This shortcut can bypass the time investment and, in some cases, financial expenditure required to advance within the legitimate version. Historically, this practice has been driven by communities seeking to explore the game’s potential without the limitations imposed by its economic model.
