Well, I'm not a new player, and so far none have interested me enough to purchase.
In the back of my head, I keep thinking that I should purchase at least one of these just to spend some money on the game, which until this point I haven't. And I feel bad about this because the game is worth putting some money into.
What I would love to see is maybe some special deal for advanced players, instead of new players, maybe Level 30 or higher, and we would be offered some special thing that you can only get by paying your 99 cents. Not something bought with gems or earned as a goal, something you just pay cash for. Ideally, it would be great if it was something that added value to your kingdom, something that every day or three might drop something valuable. Or maybe there might be a special deal to buy an Alicorn horn or wing, or a burning ember. Put out some 99 cent deals and let players that have needed parts forever buy a few to get over their hump.
I think the 99 cent price is key, it's cheap enough that folks will spend that without thinking too much about it, but give some value at the same time for advanced players who may not have paid anything yet, give them a reason to want to pay some money.
