    Just went to re-download some stuff from the Windows 7 Marketplace and the following are appearing as App is no longer published.

    Monster Burner (WP)
    Turn N Run (WP)
    Extraction: Project Outbreak (WP)
    Tentacles (WP)
    Contract Killer (WP)
    Gun Bros (WP)
    Chickens Can't Fly (WP)
    Bug Village (WP)

    Just got my phone back from repair and managed to download these a few days ago. Been back to the site to check out whether I could get some other stuff and these are now showing as App no longer published.
    What the brown?

    I see extraction as "Not available for your device." Others I cannot locate at all.

    They were available last week as i managed to re-download them to my phone, but when you go to the windows phone marketplace, they are all listed as "App no longer published".

    This is for U.K, don't know if this affects other regions though.
    What the brown?

    It affects all regions. On first glance, they all seem to be games with MSP-based micro-transactions. Probably means they are in the process if being converted over to real money since MSP is no longer a thing.
    Gamers have two hobbies: Playing games, and complaining about those games

    Did Turn n Run have micro transactions? I have the game but it keeps crashing when loading the 1st level so I really don't know too much about it

    Yes, there was an option to buy level solutions.

    I don't think they are going to be fixed by MS.
    That's what the devs of Zombies!!! told me:

    One of the few games with in-app-purchases that hasn't been delisted yet is Monster Island. If s.o. wants to get it I think it's about time:

    Gravity Guy is another one hit by this issue (it was 160MSP for extra slowdowns)

    An update arrived the other day, and gave me 3 free slowdowns, so presumably there must be some sort of workaround here?

    Don't download Crimson Dragon. It will take you 150 hours to complete without being able to buy the currency

    I don't think it's even possible at this point to even complete it without buying currency, which, you can't even do.

    Comments on one of the solutions suggest the GPS tracker stops giving you gems after a certain distance travelled.

    Yeah, you're capped on the GPS gems

    So is there no way to get these games back as I also sent my phone for repairs and recently got it back... just checked and there are a few titles I can't find... beards and beaks being one of them along with angry birds... if they have been removed permanently I hope Microsoft are going to refund me seeming I own a digital copy that they have removed the link to :/
