You don't, and that's natural and that's okay.

The thing that is really funny to me about Suika Game is that Yuji Naka, Sonic's dad (in jail right now, right?) solo-developed a "physics 2048" with dice called shot2048. (I'm sure there were others, we're talking about 2048 after all)

But this wasn't any kind of success because it wasn't massively astroturfed to every vtuber on earth because its mobile game upsells were so cynical and aggressive as to really affect one's enjoyment of the game.

For one thing, the game has a super strict fail state: have one dice roll over the line and you're dead. This is a game where the dice can collide and rebound, so you can just lose entirely by a sheer accident of physics. The reason the fail state is so strict is that the game immediately asks you for either money or to watch an ad to continue. Not too subtle.

And my "favorite" cynical thing about shot2048 is it shows you an ad if you "win" and assemble a 2048 die. Like, congratulations, you did it, here's an unskippable ad. I'm trying to recall whether it forces you to watch an ad to keep playing after this point, but I can't quite remember. It's something like that, something which actively keeps you from continuing to play, and that was how I wound up deleting it.

Anyway, suika game's secrets are that it's cute and very easy to play, and the ripoff of the original Switch version that someone else made is even easier to play.
