Make It Rain: The Love of Money is a 2014 incremental mobile game published by American indie studio Space Inch LLC. In the first week after its launch on the Apple OS, it was with 2 million downloads the most downloaded game in the iTunes Store. Inside the game, virtual money can be earned with insider trading, subprime mortgages and the bribing of political figures. According to the creators, the game is a satire on the obsession with wealth. The game is available for Apple iOS, Android and Windows Phone operating systems. The idea for the game was originally inspired from a previously released game called Make Money Rain.[4]
As an incremental game, there is no end goal in Make it Rain, but rather the endless goal of acquiring more currency, which ties into the game's themes of greed and corruption. This can be done through in-game means, or through in-app purchases. Space Inch's Chairman Josh Segall, who is a criminal lawyer, indicated that he found it disturbing that the option to bribe the FBI is the most popular paid purchase within the game.[5]
