"Buy Deadlock for $1" - This is not correct - it is coming up with a price of £1.41 when I try to buy it, thats more like around $1.84. False advertising. If you say its a dollar then it should be a dollar.

Mmm, $1 = about 76p at the moment. Add VAT, and that's 91p.

Where did the other 50p come from?

Some geolocation is going on, which is ironic for something set in space.

You've been mugged by Slithering Turpin and his bunch of Highway Men.....

plus, they're going to release a $1 game about it called Stand & Deliver - Slithering cash from your account. Turn based Strategy
ALSO
If you get the Stand & Deliver - Slithering cash from your account, Waylayer's Purse DLC for a $1 the Highwayman's Horse leaves it's turd in your wallet & charges more than a $1 for the privilage. Turd based Strategy.
But them's the rules of the currency converter - also, using the laws of the currency converter as a clever marketing strategy.
I'm going to hazard a guess that the Slitherine marketing department used the term "you know it makes cents" when submitting this sale for approval to management in the first place.....

WE CAN'T SELL A GAME WORTH £32.99 FOR A $1 DOLLAR.....!!

Yes we can boss, you know it makes cents........

SALE APPROVED - BONUS INFLATED - EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH -
Cheesy grin employee of the month photo on the canteen wall <----dartboard material (said a few on passing)

BTW..... It cost me £1.41 for a £32.99 game, that deal....., to me, is an absolute STEAL & I'm The Highwayman - to quibble about the change from a Dollar $1..... makes no cents

More like, "We can sell the DLC to more people..." "Great, do it!" :)
