Godville: Godpower Purchases

blogger
   Part of the Series on Godville   
 
   In the game Godville you can buy godpower, this game's form of in-app purchases. This will break down what they will give you and what you get for your cost.



4 Charges: $0.99 United States Dollars or $0.59 British Pounds. 
22 Charges: $4.99 United States Dollars or $2.99 British Pounds.
45 Charges: $9.99 United States Dollars or $5.99 British Pounds
120 Charges: $24.99 United States Dollars or $14.99 British Pounds
250 Charges: $49.99 United States Dollars or $29.99 British Pounds

   That being said we do not make any promise, legal or otherwise that these are accurate beforehand or afterhand. This is what they were at the time of this article was published to the best of my knowledge. The costs of these could of changed due to inflation and other factions outside of our control. This is just to be taken as general advice and we make no assurance of the accuracy. That being said, although no legal wise this is simply math you can do on the computer.

   Assuming the costs below what does that make the best deal to buy as of the moment and the cost per charge for each purchase?

1 Charge Costs: (Assuming 4 Charge Purchase) $0.99/4= $0.2475 US Dollars per Charge

It is currently $0.59 for the cost of buying all four charges in pounds.

$0.59/4 =0.1475

This gives the cost for buying 1 charge in a 4 charge purchase as.

  • 0.2475 US Dollars Per Charge
  • 0.1475 British Pounds Per Charge
Now lets move on to a 22 Charge Purchase and figure the cost.
$4.99 US Dollars divided by 22 equals around 0.2268181 per charge. 
We have 2.99 Pounds which gives us 0.1359090 Pounds.
We therefore get.....
  • 0.2268181 US Dollars Per Charge
  • 0.1359090 British Pounds Per Charge
 Now lets move on to the 45 Charge Purchase and Figure the Cost.
  • $9.99/45= 0.222 US Dollars Per Charge
  • 5.99 Pounds/45= 0.1331111111111111111 Pounds Per Charge
 Assuming a 45 Charge Purchase this will give us.....
  • 0.222 US Dollars Per Charge
  • 0.13311111111111111 Pounds Per Charge
Now lets move on to the 120 Charge Purchase

$24.99/120=0.20825 US Dollars Per Charge
14.99 Pounds/ 0.1249166 Pounds Per Charge

For a 120 Charge that gives us.....
  • 0.20825 US Dollars Per Charge
  • 0.1249166 Pounds Per Charge
For a 250 Charge lets put the values again for the last time....

$49.99/250= 0.19996 US Dollars Per Charge
29.99 Pounds/250= 0.11996 Pounds Per Charge

Putting those values in gives us....
  • 0.19996 US Dollars Per Charge
  • 0.11996 Pounds Per Charge
Now we are going to put this into a graph showing what this looks like on an axis plane.

The Chart Can Be Seen Here.

    We can tell that it rewards you to spend more, this is not an unusual thing in video games and is a pretty typical curve as far as in-app purchases go. When I saw the 1/4-1/5 reduction it was no shock. Overall, if you want to buy a charge and know you will need more simply buy it in bulk as it will save you money.

    I hope this article helped you! Have fun in Godville! Happy Spicy Gaming!
