Last year, Adam Winger, the director of the North Logan City library in Utah, resigned for reasons that were not immediately clear. Now things have become a teensy bit clearer: He’s been found guilty of spending $US89,000 ($123,366) in public money on mobile game sensation Game of War.

Kevin Lee Co, a 45 year-old man from Rocklin, California, pleaded guilty to charges of wire fraud and money laundering, having been caught stealing $US4.8 million ($6.4 million) from his employer between 2008 and 2015. Some of which he spent rather poorly.

Yes, that Game of War. It's the mobile game you see everywhere, though no one you know seems to actually play it. Well, people do and they're willing to part with insane amounts of dollars for the privilege. $US549.69 per player, to be precise.

Independent mobile developer Tom Young couldn't afford a big budget Kate Upton commercial like the Game of War: Fire Age folks for his puzzle game, so he just took Carl's Jr.'s ad instead. The results are wonderfully bizarre.

A former developer at Machine Zone -- the studio most famous for its Kate Upton-fronted Game of War mobile game -- has been arrested and is facing up to 10 years prison after being accused of "stealing trade secrets".
