There’s a problem with ad supported games making money. You really need thousands of people playing your game on a regular basis to make decent money out of it (which is needed to pay staff, authors, artists, editors etc). Historically there’s been problems with the add companies in the past, and I believe they’re only paying out a few cents per ad. Not many people are going to want to sit down and wade through half an hour or more of ads just to avoid paying for a game, even if the ad companies allowed it.
