Peggle iPhone gets 'Nights' expansion through in-app purchase
14
If you're just now in the final stages of recovery from your brutal, all-consuming addiction to the iPhone version of Peggle, then look away! Quickly, before it's too late! Okay, there's your fair warning -- the Peggle Nights expansion is now available to download through the iPhone port's in-app store, adding a whole slew of new (and darker) levels to the addictive Pachinko title for $2.99.
Though the announcement for the expansion claims that its contents come free with new purchases of Peggle starting today, it seems new purchasers actually just get access to a five-level sampler pack of Nights. The demo is also available to longtime mobile Pegglers with a free update to the title through the App Store. If this isn't proof that the company is run by extremely successful former drug dealers, we don't know what is.

When you try to buy, it shows .99cents on the game, but the apple pop-up charges $2.99. Beware!

Shame they broke Peggle for everyone that doesn't have their iPhone/iPod language set to "English". If you're set to anything else (eg. British English) you get the PopCap logo and then it crashes out.

That is down to slow propogation throughout the app store regions.
Price will update soon to correct $0.99

Good deal. I have to say I never really "got" this game, though.

I picked up Peggie for $0.99. I'm not gonna pay 200% more for the expansion. Maybe if it hits the dollar price point. Maybe

Due to the crashing issues with the languages, the Peggle Nights add on is now only 99 cents for a limited time. Awesome, glad I didn't buy it right away...no issues so far, and it only charged me 99 cents.

I only *just* decided to embrace the iPod/iPhone as a legitimate gaming device and ordered one last night. It hasn't even shipped and I already have Peggle, Bookworm, and Plants vs. Zombies downloaded and ready to go.
