    If you haven't read our previous coverage of Sissy's Magical Ponycorn Adventure, the excruciatingly cute browser game dreamed up by Untold Entertainment developer Ryan Henson Creighton and his five-year-old daughter/creative director Cassie, then this story's headline probably makes about as much sense to you as the ramblings of a man having a massive stroke. Feel free to read up before continuing on with this story.

    That lemon is such a dick.
    That lemon is such a dick.

    Now that you have presumably spent the last 10 or 15 minutes cooing and squealing like a toddler in a Care Bear factory (an actual Care Bear factory, not the sweatshop where Care Bears are forced to manufacture rainbows and joy and greeting cards under the oppressive whip of their uncaring overlords at American Greetings), perhaps the news that Sissy's Magical Ponycorn Adventure is now available to iPad owners everywhere is of some interest to you.

    Retailing for $2.99, the game features all the same content as the browser version, minus any ads. While some may balk at the notion of paying a few dollars for an admittedly very short game they once played for free, I hereby invite you to look at this girl's face. Are you going to look at that face and tell her no, you won't buy her previously free-to-play game because it was previously free-to-play? Are you going to tell her that Ponycorns actually aren't that awesome and that $2.99 is too steep to have them on your iPad? If so, you're far stronger of will than I. And also a monster. A MONSTER.

    If you're interested in contributing in other ways to the cause (funds previously donated to the game go directly to Cassie's education fund--over $3,000 has been raised thus far), there is also a gang of Ponycorn-related merchandise up on Untold's website, including some rather pricey plush toys, and a couple of pretty great t-shirts. Seriously thinking of grabbing that "I Am An Evil Lemon!" shirt, myself.

    $2.99? Yuck. The game's cute and all, but it's not worth anything, really. The only reason someone should buy it, I would think, is out of good will.

    Similar concept (product developed by adult and child): Axe Cop: Bad Guy Earth. It's hilarious, give it a chance.

    As for this game... ehrm... I don't have an iPad *shrugs*

    Just saying that it's basically like a charity for an organisation, but it's for one girl.

    @B_Heart: I'm not hating... Meh, I know I'm heartless, but buying something based on its cuteness just seems useless to me. Certainly, many get a kick out of it.

    College is now so expensive parents are forcing their children to work for that tuition money. I might have to put a sewing machine in my child's room.

    Never understood how people who can justify ponying up hundreds of dollars for an iPad go into fits over a couple dollars for a game.

    Is there a name for the thing writers do where they tell you to go read or do another thing before continuing on? I like that thing.

    @FluxWaveZ: lol! 
    Just think of it as the cute little girl is the developer, and her dad the publisher. As gamers we often support the developers beyond the gouging done by their publishers. 
     
    BTW Alex is still Alex in this simile.

    if i had an iPad i'd buy it just for the ease of showing others how frickin cute it is, a childs imagination is much more limitless then an adults, i really enjoy seeing what they come out with, hope they put together game number 2

    A small part of me wishes I had an ipad so I could contribute to this girls college fund.
