Blek is one of the better examples of a game built with a touchscreen in mind, so much so that Apple awarded the title one of its coveted design awards earlier this year. In the world of mobile games its no surprise that Bleks success would lead to imitators, but a recent release on the App Store has raised eyebrows for being particularly egregious: its even called Cloned Blek. The free-to-play title features the same core mechanic as Blek, but with crude graphics and plenty of ads. The clone, however, provides yet another example of the troubling nature of mobile-game clones, and Blek is far from the first: popular titles like Threes and Flappy Bird have both recently seen plentiful clones.
