Line 220:
* In [[RuneScape]], you can spend real money to get extra spins on the 'Squeal of Fortune', whose prizes include things like XP, rare items, and in-game money.
* Played with in the iOS port of ''[[Don Pachi|DoDonPachi Blissful Death]]''. Version 1.0.2 added "Custom Edit" options to make the game easier, such as starting with more lives, and most of these can only be unlocked by buying them with real money. But playing with any of these options turned on disqualifies you for the high score rankings. So about the only thing they're good for is letting unskilled players experience the [[True Final Boss]].
* Also from [[CAVE]], Smartphone Mode in ''[[Death Smiles]]'' has powerful [[Downloadable Content|DLC]] equipment, although unlike most other games, the DLC is at best a [[ByzantineDisc EmpireOne Nuke]]d, none of the items are consumable (and they can all be restored if you lose your save data), and the best equipment in the game can't be bought. The exception is the Lucky Charm, which plays this trope painfully straight - it's the single most expensive DLC item in the game at $4<ref>Formerly ''$6'' when first released, and occasionally lowered to 99 cents during sales, although these only happen about twice a year.</ref> and ''triples'' the item drop rate when equipped.
* ''[[Honkai Impact 3rd]]'': While no gameplay content is outright locked out to truly free players, the best Valkyries and equipment are only available through gacha that use the "crystal" premium currency. Crystals can be gained in small quantities through gameplay, or their acquisition can be sped up with real cash. Better types of Battle Passes and other resource-granting bundles can also be acquired using a different kind of premium currency called "B-Chips".
